We show that every essentially countable orbit equivalence relation induced by a continuous action of a Polish group on a Polish space is $\sigma$-lacunary. In combination with [Invent. Math.201 (1), 309-383, 2015] we obtain a…

We introduce an universum of the Polish (=complete separable metric) space - the convex cone of distance matrices and study its geometry. It happened that the generic Polish spaces in this sense of this universum is so called Urysohn spaces…

We prove that, whenever $G$ is a Polish group with metrizable universal minimal flow $M(G)$, there exists a comeagre orbit in $M(G)$. It then follows that there exists an extremely amenable, closed, coprecompact $G^*$ of $G$ such that $M(G)…

We propose and study a new approach to the topologization of spaces of (possibly not all) future-directed causal curves in a stably causal spacetime. It relies on parametrizing the curves "in accordance" with a chosen time function. Thus…

We will show that, consistently, every uncountable set can be continuously mapped onto a non measure zero set, while there exists an uncountable set whose all continuous images into a Polish space are meager.

This paper presents a study of generic elements in full isometry groups of Polish ultrametric spaces. We obtain a complete characterization of Polish ultrametric spaces X whose isometry group Iso(X) contains an open subgroup H with ample…

We introduce the notion of uniform exactness, or uniform amenability at infinity, for discrete groups and prove it for a wide class of groups containing free groups and their limit groups. This shows a novel strong convergence phenomenon…

The space of unitary $C_{0}$-semigroups on separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space, when viewed under the topology of uniform weak convergence on compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}_{+}$, is known to admit various interesting residual…

We show that a non-universal Polish group can induce a complete orbit equivalence relation, which answers a question of Sabok from \cite{OPENPROBLEMS}.

We show that every abelian Polish group is the topological factor-group of a closed subgroup of the full unitary group of a separable Hilbert space with the strong operator topology. It follows that all orbit equivalence relations induced…

We introduce and study Polish topologies on various spaces of countable enumerated groups, where an enumerated group is simply a group whose underlying set is the set of natural numbers. Using elementary tools and well known examples from…

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.…

In this article, we introduce a hierarchy on the class of non-archimedean Polish groups that admit a compatible complete left-invariant metric. We denote this hierarchy by $\alpha$-CLI and L-$\alpha$-CLI where $\alpha$ is a countable…

We prove that no uncountable Polish group can admit a system of generators whose associated length function satisfies the following conditions: (i) if $0 < k < \omega$, then $lg(x) \leq lg(x^k)$; (ii) if $lg(y) < k < \omega$ and $x^k = y$,…

Given a Polish group $G$, let $E(G)$ be the right coset equivalence relation $G^\omega/c(G)$, where $c(G)$ is the group of all convergent sequences in $G$. We first established two results: (1) Let $G,H$ be two Polish groups. If $H$ is TSI…

When $G$ is a Polish group, metrizability of the universal minimal flow has been shown to be a robust dividing line in the complexity of the topological dynamics of $G$. We introduce a class of groups, the CAP groups, which provides a neat…

A subset of a Polish space $X$ is called universally small if it belongs to each ccc $\sigma$-ideal with Borel base on $X$. Under CH in each uncountable Abelian Polish group $G$ we construct a universally small subset $A_0\subset G$ such…
