Abstract
In this paper we study the Borel structure of the space of left-orderings of a group modulo the natural conjugacy action, and by using tools from descriptive set theory we find many examples of countable left-orderable groups such that the quotient space is not standard. This answers a question of Deroin, Navas, and Rivas. We also prove that the countable Borel equivalence relation induced from the conjugacy action of on is universal, and leverage this result to provide many other examples of countable left-orderable groups such that the natural -action on induces a universal countable Borel equivalence relation.
