Menger conjectured that subsets of $\mathbb R$ with the Menger property must be $\sigma$-compact. While this is false when there is no restriction on the subsets of $\mathbb R$, for projective subsets it is known to follow from the Axiom of…
We ask whether $\mathbf{\Delta^1_2}$ or $\mathbf{\Sigma^1_2}$ equivalence relations with $I$-small classes for $I$ a $\sigma$-ideal must have perfectly many classes. We show that for a wide class of ccc $\sigma$-ideals, a positive answer…
Given an analytic equivalence relation, we tend to wonder whether it is Borel. When it is non Borel, there is always the hope it will be Borel on a "large" set -- nonmeager or of positive measure. That has led Kanovei, Sabok and Zapletal to…
We show that the set of Misiurewicz maps has Lebesgue measure zero in the parameter space of rational maps for any fixed degree greater than or equal to 2.
Work in the measure algebra of the Lebesgue measure on the Cantor space: for comeager many $[A]$ the set of points $x$ such that the density of $x $ at $A$ is not defined is $\Sigma^{0}_{3}$-complete; for some compact $K$ the set of points…
We answer a question of Banakh, Jab\l{}o\'nska and Jab\l{}o\'nski by showing that for $d\ge 2$ there exists a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ such that the projection of $K$ onto each hyperplane is of non-empty interior, but $K+K$ is…
We show that the set of Liouville numbers is either null or non-$\sigma$-finite with respect to every translation invariant Borel measure on $\RR$, in particular, with respect to every Hausdorff measure $\iH^g$ with gauge function $g$. This…
We present strong versions of Marstrand's projection theorems and other related theorems. For example, if E is a plane set of positive and finite s-dimensional Hausdorff measure, there is a set X of directions of Lebesgue measure 0, such…
Building on work of Baldwin and Beaudoin, assuming Martin's Axiom, we construct a zero-dimensional separable metrizable space $X$ such that $X$ is countable dense homogeneous while $X^2$ is not. It follows from results of Hru\v{s}\'ak and…
The empty set of course contains no computable point. On the other hand, surprising results due to Zaslavskii, Tseitin, Kreisel, and Lacombe assert the existence of NON-empty co-r.e. closed sets devoid of computable points: sets which are…
In this note we construct a measure $\mu$ on a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{M}$ of subsets of the positive real axis, $\mathbb{R}_{>0}$, with the following multiplicative property: \[ \mu \left( \bigcup_j E_j \right) = \prod_j \mu(E_j) \] for…
Menger conjectured that subsets of R with the Menger property must be ${\sigma}$-compact. While this is false when there is no restriction on the subsets of R, for projective subsets it is known to follow from the Axiom of Projective…
We show that the set of Misiurewicz maps has Lebesgue measure zero in the space of rational functions for any fixed degree greater than or equal to 2 (generalising the earlier version math.DS/0701382).
We show that (1) If ZF is consistent then the following theory is consistent "ZF + DC(omega_{1}) + Every set of reals has Baire property" and (2) If ZF is consistent then the following theory is consistent "ZFC + `every projective set of…
Projections of finite dimensional sets and their measures are investigated in infinite-dimensional power measure spaces. The starting point is the known algebraic formula, expressing \ the $y$-projection of a finite-dimensional set $a$ as a…
We show that all sufficiently nice $\lambda$-sets are countable dense homogeneous ($\mathsf{CDH}$). From this fact we conclude that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa \le \mathfrak{b}$ there is a countable dense homogeneous metric space…
We analyze a class of piecewise linear parabolic maps on the torus, namely those obtained by considering a linear map with double eigenvalue one and taking modulo one in each component. We show that within this two parameter family of maps,…
The evoluted set is the set of configurations reached from an initial set via a fixed flow for all times in a fixed interval. We find conditions on the initial set and on the flow ensuring that the evoluted set has negligible boundary (i.e.…
In this paper, we highlight how any Bell inequality for a configuration involving $n$ parties each performing one of $m$ binary-outcome measurements has a canonical form that is no-signalling-projection invariant. Specifically, the…
We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
