Abstract

Improving and clarifying a construction of Horowitz and Shelah, we show how to construct (in , that is, without using the Axiom of Choice) maximal cofinitary groups. Among the groups we construct, one is definable by a formula in second order arithmetic with only a few natural number quantifiers.

Fixed a gap in the proof. 30 pages
