Tarski's Circle Squaring Problem from 1925 asks whether it is possible to partition a disk in the plane into finitely many pieces and reassemble them via isometries to yield a partition of a square of the same area. It was finally resolved…

We give a completely constructive solution to Tarski's circle squaring problem. More generally, we prove a Borel version of an equidecomposition theorem due to Laczkovich. If $k \geq 1$ and $A, B \subseteq \mathbb{R}^k$ are bounded Borel…

We give a sketch of proof that any two (Lebesgue) measurable subsets of the unit sphere in $R^n$, for $n\ge 3$, with non-empty interiors and of the same measure are equidecomposable using pieces that are measurable.

For a bounded measurable set $A\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ we denote the Lebesgue measure of $\{(x, y)\in A^2\colon x\le y\le x+1\}$ by $\Phi(A)$. We prove that if $I=A_1\cup\dots\cup A_{k+1}$ partitions an interval $I$ of length $L$ into $k+1$…

We extend Raimi's classical partition theorem to the continuous setting of the circle and $n$-dimensional torus. Building on recent work of Hegyv\'ari, Pach, and Pham in finite groups, we prove that there exist measurable partitions of the…

We show that a circle and square of the same area in $\mathbb{R}^2$ are equidecomposable by translations using $\mathbf{\Delta}^0_2$ pieces. That is, pieces which are simultaneously $F_\sigma$ and $G_\delta$ sets. This improves a result of…

We use the measurable Hall's theorem due to Cie\'sla and Sabok to prove that (i) if two measurable sets $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of the same measure are bounded remainder sets with respect to a given irrational $d$-dimensional vector…

For an $r$-tuple $(\gamma_1,\ldots,\gamma_r)$ of special orthogonal $d\times d$ matrices, we say that the Euclidean $(d-1)$-dimensional sphere $S^{d-1}$ is $(\gamma_1,\ldots,\gamma_r)$-divisible if there is a subset $A\subseteq S^{d-1}$…

Let $f \colon X \rightarrow Y$ be a resolvable-measurable mapping of a metrizable space $X$ to a regular space $Y$. Then $f$ is piecewise continuous. Additionally, for a metrizable completely Baire space $X$, it is proved that $f$ is…

A famous result of Hausdorff states that a sphere with countably many points removed can be partitioned into three pieces A,B,C such that A is congruent to B (i.e., there is an isometry of the sphere which sends A to B), B is congruent to…

We demonstrate that a reproducing kernel Hilbert or Banach space of functions on a separable absolute Borel space or an analytic subset of a Polish space is separable if it possesses a Borel measurable feature map.

In 1933, Borsuk made a conjecture that every $n$-dimensional bounded set can be divided into $n+1$ subsets of smaller diameter. Up to now, the problem is still open for $4\leq n\leq 63$. In this paper, we firstly discuss the Banach-Mazur…
