Abstract
Kastermans proved that consistently has a cofinitary representation. We present a short proof that always has an arithmetic cofinitary representation. Further, for every finite group we construct an arithmetic maximal cofinitary group of isomorphism type . This answers an implicit question by Schrittesser and Mejak whether one may construct definable maximal cofinitary groups not decomposing into free products.
