free topological groups; function spaces
Summary:
In this paper we give a complete isomorphical classification of free topological groups $FM(X)$ of locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces $X$. From this classification we obtain for locally compact zero-dimensional separable metric spaces $X$ and $Y$ that the free topological groups $FM (X)$ and $FM(Y)$ are isomorphic if and only if $C_p(X)$ and $C_p(Y)$ are linearly homeomorphic.
