## Extension theory of infinite symmetric products

EN

### Abstrakty

EN
We present an approach to cohomological dimension theory based on infinite symmetric products and on the general theory of dimension called the extension dimension. The notion of the extension dimension ext-dim(X) was introduced by A. N. Dranishnikov [9] in the context of compact spaces and CW complexes. This paper investigates extension types of infinite symmetric products SP(L). One of the main ideas of the paper is to treat ext-dim(X) ≤ SP(L) as the fundamental concept of cohomological dimension theory instead of $dim_G(X) ≤ n. In a subsequent paper [18] we show how properties of infinite symmetric products lead naturally to a calculus of graded groups which implies most of the classical results on the cohomological dimension. The basic notion in [18] is that of homological dimension of a graded group which allows for simultaneous treatment of cohomological dimension of compacta and extension properties of CW complexes. We introduce cohomology of X with respect to L (defined as homotopy groups of the function space$SP(L)^X\$). As an application of our results we characterize all countable groups G so that the Moore space M(G,n) is of the same extension type as the Eilenberg-MacLane space K(G,n). Another application is a characterization of infinite symmetric products of the same extension type as a compact (or finite-dimensional and countable) CW complex.
