• Abstract:
  We prove that if I and J are infinite sets and G an abelian torsion group the groups G^I and G^J are elementarily equivalent for the logic L_{\infty\omega}. The proof is based on a new and simple property with a Cantor-Bernstein flavour. A criterion applying to non commutative groups allows us to exhibit various groups (free or soluble or nilpotent or ...) G such that for I infinite countable and J uncountable the groups G^I and G^J are not even elementarily equivalent for the L_{\omega_I \omega} logic. Another argument leads to a countable commutative group having the same property.
