Abstract: | We solve the problem of the elementary equivalence (definability) of the permutation groups over cardinals ℵα. We show that it suffices to solve the problem of elementary equivalence (definability) for the ordinals α in certain second
order logic, and this is reduced to the case of α < (2ℵ
0)+. We solve a problem of Mycielski and McKenzie on embedding of free groups in permutation groups, and discuss some weak second-order
quantifiers.
