Abstract
The main goal of the article is to study the Pontryagin duality for Abelian - and -groups. Let be an infinite Abelian group and be the dual group of the discrete group . We show that a dense subgroup of is -closed iff algebraically is the dual group of endowed with some maximally almost periodic -topology. Every reflexive Polish Abelian group is -closed in its Bohr compactification. If a -topology on a countably infinite Abelian group is generated by a countable set of convergent sequences, then the dual group of is Polish. A non-trivial Hausdorff Abelian topological group is a -group iff it is a quotient group of the -sum of a family of copies of .
