We show that for a $\sigma $-ideal $\ci$ with a Borel base of subsets of an uncountable Polish space, if $\ca$ is (in several senses) a "regular" family of subsets from $\ci $ then there is a subfamily of $\ca$ whose union is completely…

We prove that if $X$ is a Polish space and $F$ is a face of $P(X)$ with the Baire property, then $F$ is either a meager or a co-meager subset of $P(X)$. As a consequence we show that for every abelian Polish group $X$ and every analytic…

Let $G$ be a discrete abelian group. F{\o}lner showed that if $A \subseteq G$ has positive upper Banach density, then $A - A$ contains an almost Bohr set -- a set of the form $B \setminus E$ where $B$ is a Bohr set and $E$ has zero Banach…

Answering a question of Elekes and Vidny\'anszky, we construct a Polish meta-abelian group $H$ and a subgroup $F\subset H$, which is a Haar null $F_\sigma$-set in $H$ that cannot be enlarged to a Haar null $G_\delta$-set.

A display of a topological group G on a Banach space X is a topological isomorphism of G with the isometry group Isom(X,||.||) for some equivalent norm ||.|| on X, where the latter group is equipped with the strong operator topology.…

The motivation of this article is to introduce a kind of orbit equivalence relations which can well describe structures and properties of Polish groups from the perspective of Borel reducibility. Given a Polish group $G$, let $E(G)$ be the…

A subset $X$ of a Polish group $G$ is called \emph{Haar null} if there exists a Borel set $B \supset X$ and Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $G$ such that $\mu(gBh)=0$ for every $g,h \in G$. We prove that there exists a set $X \subset…

Generalizing Christensen's notion of a Haar-null set and Darji's notion of a Haar-meager set, we introduce and study the notion of a Haar-$\mathcal I$ set in a Polish group. Here $\mathcal I$ is an ideal of subsets of some compact…

A set $P$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is an open packing if no two distinct vertices in $P$ have a common neighbor. Among all maximal open packings in $G$, the smallest cardinality is denoted $\rho^{\rm o}_L(G)$ and the largest cardinality…

We prove that if an analytic subset $A$ of a linear metric space $X$ is not contained in a $\sigma Z_\omega$-subset of $X$ then for every Polish convex set $K$ with dense affine hull in $X$ the sum $A+K$ is non-meager in $X$ and the sets…

We show that under some conditions on a family $\mathcal{A}\subset\bbi$ there exists a subfamily $\mathcal{A}_0\subset\mathcal{A}$ such that $\bigcup \mathcal{A}_0$ is nonmeasurable with respect to a fixed ideal $\bbi$ with Borel base of a…

For every infinite cardinal $\kappa$ with $\kappa^+=2^\kappa$ we construct a group $G$ of cardinality $|G|=\kappa^+$ such that (i) $G$ is $36$-Shelah, which means that $A^{36}=G$ for any subset $A\subseteq G$ of cardinality $|A|=|G|$; (ii)…

In recent years, much work has been done to measure and compare the complexity of orbit equivalence relations, especially for certain classes of Polish groups. We start by introducing some language to organize this previous work, namely the…

Given a topological group $G$ we calculate or evaluate the cardinal characteristic $c_k(G)$ (and $c_k^B(G)$) equal to the smallest cardinality of a $k$-centerpole subset $C\subset G$ for (Borel) colorings of $G$. A subset $C\subset G$ of a…

We present the (Lascar) Galois group of any countable theory as a quotient of a compact Polish group by an $F_\sigma$ normal subgroup: in general, as a topological group, and under NIP, also in terms of Borel cardinality. This allows us to…

Let $G$ be an infinite compact group. We prove that for every cardinal $\kappa$ between the density and the weight of $G$, there exists a dense subgroup of $G$ of density $\kappa$.

Given a class C of subgroups of a topological group G, we say that a subgroup H in C is a universal C subgroup of G if every subgroup K in C is a continuous homomorphic preimage of H. Such subgroups may be regarded as complete members of C…

It is introduced a certain approach for equipment of an arbitrary set of the cardinality of the continuum by structures of Polish groups and two-sided (left or right) invariant Haar measures. By using this approach we answer positively…

We apply the theory of large-scale geometry of Polish groups to groups of absolutely continuous homeomorphisms. Let $M$ be either the compact interval or circle. We prove that the Polish group $\operatorname{AC}_+(M)$ of…

We provide analogues of the results from [FMR11, CMMR13] in the reference list (which correspond to the case $\kappa = \omega$) for arbitrary $\kappa$-Souslin quasi-orders on any Polish space, for $\kappa$ an infinite cardinal smaller than…
