A game characterizing Baire class 1 functions

Logic 2020-04-22 v3

Abstract

Duparc introduced a two-player game for a function ff between zero-dimensional Polish spaces in which Player II has a winning strategy iff ff is of Baire class 1. We generalize this result by defining a game for an arbitrary function f:XYf : X \to Y between arbitrary Polish spaces such that Player II has a winning strategy in this game iff ff is of Baire class 1. Using the strategy of Player II, we reprove a result concerning first return recoverable functions.
