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…
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 $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
The following will be shown: Let $I$ be a $\sigma$-ideal on a Polish space $X$ with the property that the associated forcing of $I^+$ Borel subsets ordered by $\subseteq$ is a proper forcing. Let E be an analytic or coanalytic equivalence…
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…
All spaces are assumed to be separable and metrizable. Our main result is that the statement "For every space $X$, every closed subset of $X$ has the perfect set property if and only if every analytic subset of $X$ has the perfect set…
A set of reals A is called perfectly meager if A \cap P is meager in P, for every perfect set P. Marczewski asked if the product of perfectly meager sets is perfectly meager. In the paper it is shown that it is consistent that the answer to…
Two-dimensional version of the classical Mycielski theorem says that for every comeager or conull set $X\subseteq [0,1]^2$ there exists a perfect set $P\subseteq [0,1]$ such that $P\times P\subseteq X\cup \Delta$. We consider…
In $\mathsf{ZFC}$, if there is a measurable cardinal with infinitely many Woodin cardinals below it, then for every equivalence relation $E \in L(\mathbb{R})$ on $\mathbb{R}$ with all $\mathbf{\Delta}_1^1$ classes and every $\sigma$-ideal…
We prove theorems of the following form: if $A\subseteq {\mathbb R}^2$ is a big set, then there exists a big set $P\subseteq {\mathbb R}$ and a perfect set $Q\subseteq {\mathbb R}$ such that $P\times Q\subseteq A$. We discuss cases where…
Let $\I$ be an ideal on $\N$ which is either analytic or coanalytic. Assume that $(f_n)$ is a sequence of functions with the Baire property from a Polish space $X$ into a complete metric space $Z$, which is divergent on a comeager set. We…
In this paper, we study the translations into the Baire space of several well-known $\sigma$-ideals and families originally defined on the Cantor space, using their combinatorial characterizations. These include the ideals of null sets,…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a standard graded Artinian ring defined by an m-full ideal, to have the weak Lefschetz property in terms of graded Betti numbers. This is a generalization of a theorem of Wiebe for…
We work in the Baire space $\mathbb{Z}^\omega$ equipped with the coordinate-wise addition $+$. Consider a $\sigma-$ideal $\mathcal{I}$ and a family $\mathbb{T}$ of some kind of perfect trees. We are interested in results of the form: for…
We prove that the perfect set dichotomy theorem holds in the Solovay model $V ((\omega^\omega)^{V[G]})$. Namely, for every equivalence relation $E$ on $\mathbb{R}$, either $\mathbb{R}/E$ is well-orderable or there exists a perfect set…
We show that $ZF+DC+$"all Turing invariant sets of reals have the perfect set property" implies that all sets of reals have the perfect set property. We also show that this result generalizes to all countable analytic equivalence relations.
We show that a real sequence $x$ is convergent if and only if there exist a regular matrix $A$ and an $F_{\sigma\delta}$-ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbf{N}$ such that the set of subsequences $y$ of $x$ for which $Ay$ is…
Our main result is that, given a collection $\mathcal{R}$ of meager relations on a Polish space $X$ such that $|\mathcal{R}|\leq\omega$, there exists a dense Baire subspace $F$ of $X$ (equivalently, a nowhere meager subset $F$ of $X$) such…
We show that the statement "every universally Baire set of reals has the perfect set property" is equiconsistent modulo ZFC with the existence of a cardinal that we call a virtually Shelah cardinal. These cardinals resemble Shelah cardinals…
In this paper we consider nonmeasurablity with respect to sigma-ideals defined be trees. First classical example of such ideal is Marczewski ideal s_0. We will consider also ideal l_0 defined by Laver trees and m_0 defined by Miller trees.…
A homogeneous ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring $S$ is said to have the Rees property if, for any homogeneous ideal $J \subset S $ which contains $I$, the number of generators of $J$ is smaller than or equal to that of $I$. A homogeneous ideal…
