An open set U of the real numbers R is produced such that the expansion (R,+,x,U) of the real field by U defines a Borel isomorph of (R,+,x,N) but does not define N. It follows that (R,+,x,U) defines sets in every level of the projective…

Given a minimal action $\alpha$ of a countable group on the Cantor set, we show that the alternating full group $\mathsf{A}(\alpha)$ is non-amenable if and only if the topological full group $\mathsf{F}(\alpha)$ is $C^*$-simple. This…

The shuffle of a non-empty countable set $ S $ of linear orders is the (unique up to isomorphism) linear order $ \Xi(S) $ obtained by fixing a coloring function $ \chi: \mathbb{Q} \to S $ having fibers dense in $ \mathbb{Q} $ and replacing…

Let $T$ be a theory which is t-minimal, meaning that with respect to some definable topology, a unary definable set $D \subseteq M$ has non-empty interior iff it is infinite. If $K$ is a definable field in $T$, then $K$ is finite or "large"…

A partition is finitary if all its members are finite. For a set $A$, $\mathscr{B}(A)$ denotes the set of all finitary partitions of $A$. It is shown consistent with $\mathsf{ZF}$ (without the axiom of choice) that there exist an infinite…

Let $K$ denote the middle third Cantor set and ${\cal A}:= \{3^n : n = 0,1,2, >... \} $. Given a real, positive function $\psi$ let $ W_{\cal A}(\psi)$ denote the set of real numbers $x$ in the unit interval for which there exist infinitely…

We show that every bounded automaton group can be embedded in a finitely generated, simple amenable group. The proof is based on the study of the topological full groups associated to the Schreier dynamical system of the mother groups. We…

For any $\alpha\in(0,d)$, we construct Cantor sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$ such that the associated natural measure $\mu$ obeys the restriction estimate $\| \widehat{f d\mu} \|_{p} \leq C_p \| f \|_{L^2(\mu)}$ for…

Given a nonincreasing sequence of positive numbers $(a_n)$ such that the series $\sum a_n$ is convergent, by $E(a_n)$ we denote the set of all subsums of the series $\sum a_n$ and call it the achievement set of $(a_n)$. It is well known…

We study the set M(X) of full non-atomic Borel (finite or infinite) measures on a non-compact locally compact Cantor set X. For an infinite measure $\mu$ in M(X), the set $\mathfrak{M}_\mu = \{x \in X : {for any compact open set} U \ni x…

The group of $\mathcal C^1$-diffeomorphisms of any sparse Cantor subset of a manifold is countable and discrete (possibly trivial). Thompson's groups come out of this construction when we consider central ternary Cantor subsets of an…

We study the complexity of the classification problem for countable models of set theory (ZFC). We prove that the classification of arbitrary countable models of ZFC is Borel complete, meaning that it is as complex as it can conceivably be.…

We introduce and investigate a topological version of St\"ackel's 1907 characterization of finite sets, with the goal of obtaining an interesting notion that characterizes usual compactness (or a close variant of it). Define a $T_2$…

Let $X = [0,1]^{n}$, $n \geq1$. We show that the typical (in the sense of Baire category) compact subset of $X$ is not only a zero dimensional Cantor space but it satisfies the property of being strongly microscopic, which is stronger than…

Extensions of the notions of polynomially and rationally convex hulls are introduced. Using these notions, a generalization of a result of Duval and Levenberg on polynomially convex hulls containing no analytic discs is presented. As a…

We prove that many seemingly simple theories have Borel complete reducts. Specifically, if a countable theory has uncountably many complete 1-types, then it has a Borel complete reduct. Similarly, if $Th(M)$ is not small, then $M^{eq}$ has…

In this paper we define a new class of metric spaces, called multi-model Cantor sets. We compute the Hausdorff dimension and show that the Hausdorff measure of a multi-model Cantor set is finite and non-zero. We then show that a bilipschitz…

We introduce a notion of density point and prove results analogous to Lebesgue's density theorem for various well-known ideals on Cantor space and Baire space. In fact, we isolate a class of ideals for which our results hold. In contrast to…

It is an old question how massive polynomial hulls of Cantor sets in $\mathbb{C}^n$ can be. In contrast to expectation e.g. Rudin, Vitushkin and Henkin showed on examples that it can be rather massive. Motivated by problems of holomorphic…

The main aim of the paper is to introduce a new class of (semigroup-valued) measures that are ultrahomogeneous on the Boolean algebra of all clopen subsets of the Cantor space and to study their automorphism groups. A characterisation, in…
