Comparing the isomorphism types of equivalence structures and preorders

Logic 2020-01-23 v1

Abstract

A general theme of computable structure theory is to investigate when structures have copies of a given complexity Γ\Gamma. We discuss such problem for the case of equivalence structures and preorders. We show that there is a Π10\Pi^0_1 equivalence structure with no Σ10\Sigma^0_1 copy, and in fact that the isomorphism types realized by the Π10\Pi^0_1 equivalence structures coincide with those realized by the Δ20\Delta^0_2 equivalence structures. We also construct a Σ10\Sigma^0_1 preorder with no Π10\Pi^0_1 copy.
