Abstract

The paper considers the equivalence relation of conjugacy-by-homeomorphism on diffeomorphisms of smooth manifolds. In dimension 2 and above it is shown that there is no Borel method of attaching complete numerical invariants. In dimension 5 and above it is shown that the equivalence relation is not Borel, and in fact is complete analytic.
