For a probability measure space $(X,\mathscr{A},\mu)$, we define a pseudometric $\delta$ on the ring $\mathcal{M}(X,\mathscr{A})$ of real-valued measurable functions on $X$ as $\delta(f,g)=\mu(X\setminus Z(f-g))$ and denote the topological…
We study properties of some popular topology on the space of Borel probabilities on a topological ambient space in this paper. We show that the two types of popular vague topology are equivalent to each other in case the ambient space is…
Given an algebraic function field $F|K$ and a place $\wp$ on $K$, we prove that the places that are composite with extensions of $\wp$ to finite extensions of $K$ lie dense in the space of all places of $F$, in a strong sense. We apply the…
Let $(X,d_X,\mu)$ be a metric measure space where $X$ is locally compact and separable and $\mu$ is a Borel regular measure such that $0 <\mu(B(x,r)) <\infty$ for every ball $B(x,r)$ with center $x \in X$ and radius $r>0$. We define…
For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…
We introduce a topology on the space of all isomorphism types represented in a given class of countable models, and use this topology as an aid in classifying the isomorphism types. This mixes ideas from effective descriptive set theory and…
This paper investigates instances of Sobolev embeddings characterized by local compactness at every point within their domain, except for a single point. We obtain the sharp conditions that distinguish compactness from non-compactness and…
We show that if there exists a countable Borel equivalence relation which is hyper-hyperfinite but not hyperfinite then the complexity of hyperfinite countable Borel equivalence relations is as high as possible, namely,…
Given a nonempty set $\mathcal{L}$ of linear orders, we say that the linear order $L$ is $\mathcal{L}$-convex embeddable into the linear order $L'$ if it is possible to partition $L$ into convex sets indexed by some element of $\mathcal{L}$…
For given Boolean algebras $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{B}$ we endow the space $\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{A},\mathbb{B})$ of all Boolean homomorphisms from $\mathbb{A}$ to $\mathbb{B}$ with various topologies and study convergence properties of…
Let $F$ be a global field, $A$ a central simple algebra over $F$ and $K$ a finite (separable or not) field extension of $F$ with degree $[K:F]$ dividing the degree of $A$ over $F$. An embedding of $K$ in $A$ over $F$ exists implies an…
The quest for complete observables in general relativity has been a longstanding open problem. We employ methods from descriptive set theory to show that no complete observable on rich enough collections of spacetimes is Borel definable. In…
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 $T_2$…
Every compact symmetric space $M$ admits a dual noncompact symmetric space $\check{M}$. When $M$ is a generalized Grassmannian, we can view $\check{M}$ as a open submanifold of it consisting of space-like subspaces \cite{HL}. Motivated from…
Let $\mathcal K$ be a complete quasivariety of completely regular universal topological algebras of continuous signature $\mathcal E$ (which means that $\mathcal K$ is closed under taking subalgebras, Cartesian products, and includes all…
We study the Borel and analytic subsets of the spaces \({}^{\kappa}\kappa\) and \({}^{\kappa}2\) endowed with ideal topologies, where \(\kappa\) is a regular uncountable cardinal. We establish that the Borel hierarchy does not collapse in…
We analyze the classification problem for finitely generated orderable groups from the viewpoint of descriptive set theory. We analyze the standard Borel space of finitely generated left-orderable groups, and the subspace of finitely…
In [9] we proved that the space of countable torsion-free abelian groups is Borel complete. In this paper we show that our construction from [9] satisfies several additional properties of interest. We deduce from this that countable…
Motivated by the analysis and geometry of metric-measure structures in infinite dimensions, we study the category of extended metric-topological spaces, along with many of its distinguished subcategories (such as the one of compact spaces).…
In this article we treat a notion of continuity for a multi-valued function $F$ and we compute the descriptive set-theoretic complexity of the set of all $x$ for which $F$ is continuous at $x$. We give conditions under which the latter set…
