Abstract

We prove under V=LV=L that the inclusion modulo the non-stationary ideal is a Σ11\Sigma_1^1-complete quasi-order in the generalized Borel-reducibility hierarchy (κ>ω\kappa>\omega). This improvement to known results in LL has many new consequences concerning the Σ11\Sigma_1^1-completeness of quasi-orders and equivalence relations such as the embeddability of dense linear orders as well as the equivalence modulo various versions of the non-stationary ideal. This serves as a partial or complete answer to several open problems stated in literature. Additionally the theorem is applied to prove a dichotomy in LL: If the isomorphism of a countable first-order theory (not necessarily complete) is not Δ11\Delta_1^1, then it is Σ11\Sigma_1^1-complete. We also study the case VLV\ne L and prove Σ11\Sigma_1^1-completeness results for weakly ineffable and weakly compact κ\kappa.
