A classical theorem due to Mycielski states that an equivalence relation $E$ having the Baire property and meager equivalence classes must have a perfect set of pairwise inequivalent elements. We consider equivalence relations with…
We contribute to the study of generalizations of the Perfect Set Property and the Baire Property to subsets of spaces of higher cardinalities, like the power set $P(\lambda)$ of a singular cardinal $\lambda$ of countable cofinality or…
The aim of this paper is to give natural examples of $\mathbf{\Sigma}_1^1$-complete and $\mathbf{\Pi}_1^1$-complete sets. In the first part, we consider ideals on $\omega$. In particular, we show that the Hindman ideal $\mathcal{H}$ is…
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…
There is a well-known global equivalence between \Sigma^1_2 sets having the Universal Baire property, two-step \Sigma^1_3 generic absoluteness, and the closure of the universe under the sharp operation. In this note, we determine the exact…
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 study the relationship between the sigma-ideal generated by closed measure zero sets and the ideals of null and meager sets. We show that the additivity of the ideal of closed measure zero sets is not bigger than covering for category.…
We prove several theorems on sigma-bounded and sigma-compact pointsets. We start with a known theorem by Kechris, saying that any lightface \Sigma^1_1 set of the Baire space either is effectively sigma-bounded (that is, covered by a…
Working with uncountable structures of fixed cardinality, we investigate the complexity of certain equivalence relations and show that if V = L, then many of them are \Sigma^1_1-complete, in particular the isomorphism relation of dense…
Measurability with respect to ideals is tightly connected with absoluteness principles for certain forcing notions. We study a uniformization principle that postulates the existence of a uniformizing function on a large set, relative to a…
A standard tool for classifying the complexity of equivalence relations on $\omega$ is provided by computable reducibility. This reducibility gives rise to a rich degree structure. The paper studies equivalence relations, which induce…
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 $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
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.…
Multi-class systems having possibly both finite and infinite classes are investigated under a natural partial exchangeability assumption. It is proved that the conditional law of such a system, given the vector of the empirical measures of…
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 describe $\sigma$-matching, interchangeable and, as a consequence, totally compatible products on some classes of associative algebras, including unital algebras, the semigroup algebras of rectangular bands, algebras with enough…
We study Baire category for subsets of 2^omega that are downward-closed with respect to the almost-inclusion ordering (on the power set of the natural numbers, identified with 2^omega). We show that it behaves better in this context than…
We consider natural $\Sigma^1_2$ definable analogues of many of the classical statements that have been shown to be equivalent to CH. It is shown that these $\Sigma^1_2$ analogues are equivalent to that all reals are constructible. We also…
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…
A $\sigma$-ideal $\cal{I}$ on a set $X$ is supersaturated if for every family $\cal{F}$ of $\cal{I}$-positive sets with $|\cal{F}| < \mathrm{add}(\cal{I})$, there exists a countable set that meets every set in $\cal{F}$. We show that many…
