Throughout this Abstract, $G$ is a topological Abelian group and $\hat{G}$ is the space of continuous homomorphisms from $G$ into $T$ in the compact-open topology. A dense subgroup $D$ of $G$ determines $G$ if the (necessarily continuous)…
A Tychonoff space $X$ is called $\kappa$-pseudocompact if for every continuous mapping $f$ of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^\kappa$ the image $f(X)$ is compact. This notion generalizes pseudocompactness and gives a stratification of spaces lying…
We show that the enveloping space $X_G$ of a partial action of a Polish group $G$ on a Polish space $X$ is a standard Borel space, that is to say, there is a topology $\tau$ on $X_G$ such that $(X_G, \tau)$ is Polish and the quotient Borel…
We give an alternative proof of a fact that a finite continuous non-decreasing submodular set function on a measurable space can be expressed as a supremum of measures dominated by the function, if there exists a class of sets which is…
The main result of this paper is the proof of the simultaneous consistency, modulo a weakly compact cardinal, of the equality $2^{< \mathfrak{c}} = \mathfrak{c}$ with the following property (*) of partitions of pairs of $\mathfrak{c}$:…
The structure of the Wadge degrees on zero-dimensional spaces is very simple (almost well-ordered), but for many other natural non-zero-dimensional spaces (including the space of reals) this structure is much more complicated. We consider…
In each manifold $M$ modeled on a finite or infinite dimensional cube $[0,1]^n$ we construct a meager $F_\sigma$-subset $X\subset M$ which is universal meager in the sense that for each meager subset $A\subset M$ there is a homeomorphism…
A subset $C$ of an abelian group $G$ is a minimal additive complement to $W \subseteq G$ if $C + W = G$ and if $C' + W \neq G$ for any proper subset $C' \subset C$. In this paper, we study which sets of integers arise as minimal additive…
In this paper we further develop the theory of canonical approximations of Polishable subgroups of Polish groups, building on previous work of Solecki and Farah--Solecki. In particular, we obtain a characterization of such canonical…
Let $X$ be the countable product of Abelian locally compact Polish groups and $A,B\subset X$ be two Borel sets, which are not Haar-null in $X$. We prove that the sum-set $A+B:=\{a+b:a\in A,\;\;b\in B\}$ is Haar-open in the sense that for…
Let X be a h-homogeneous zero-dimensional compact Hausdorff space, i.e. X is a Stone dual of a homogeneous Boolean algebra. It is shown that the universal minimal space M(G) of the topological group G=Homeo(X), is the space of maximal…
Let $\Gamma$ be a compact Polish group of finite topological dimension. For a countably infinite subset $S\subseteq \Gamma$, a domatic $\aleph_0$-partition (for its Schreier graph on $\Gamma$) is a partial function…
We give characterizations of the Borel sets potentially in some Wadge class, among the Borel sets with countable vertical sections of a product of two Polish spaces. To do this, we use some partial uniformization results.
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 $\kappa$.
It is shown that there exists a compact set $X$ in ${\mathbb C}^2$ with a nontrivial polynomial hull $\widehat X$ such that some point of $\widehat X \setminus X$ is a one-point Gleason part for $P(X)$. Furthermore, $X$ can chosen so that…
We answer a question of Darji and Keleti by proving in $ZFC$ that there exists a compact nullset $C_0\subset\RR$ such that for every perfect set $P\subset\RR$ there exists $x\in\RR$ such that $(C_0+x)\cap P$ is uncountable. Using this $C_0$…
We establish some similarities/analogies between uncountable cardinals or powersets and the class $V$ of all sets. They concern mainly the Boolean algebras ${\cal P}(\kappa)$, for a regular cardinal $\kappa$, and ${\cal C}(V)$ (the class of…
We prove that if a function $f$ is continuous in an open subset $U\subset\mathbb{C}$ and analytic in $U\setminus X$, where $X\subset U$ is a Polish space having characteristic system $(i,n)$, such that $i\in\{0,1\}$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$,…
A simple Steinberg algebra associated to an ample Hausdorff groupoid $G$ is algebraically purely infinite if and only if the characteristic functions of compact open subsets of the unit space are infinite idempotents. If a simple Steinberg…
We give a construction of the Gurarij space, analogous to Katetov's construction of the Urysohn space. The adaptation of Katetov's technique uses a generalisation of the Arens-Eells enveloping space to metric space with a distinguished…
