On the existence of large antichains for definable quasi-orders

Logic 2018-08-29 v1

Abstract

We generalize Harrington-Marker-Shelah's Dilworth-style characterization of the existence of non-empty perfect antichains to co-analytic quasi-orders, establish the analogous theorem at the next definable cardinal, and consider generalizations beyond the first level of the projective hierarchy.
