We introduce and study the notion of functorial Borel complexity for Polish groupoids. Such a notion aims at measuring the complexity of classifying the objects of a category in a constructive and functorial way. In the particular case of…

A coarse group is a group endowed with a coarse structure so that the group multiplication and inversion are coarse mappings. Let $(X, \mathcal{E})$ be a coarse space and let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a variety of groups different from the variety…

We first explain how to endow the space of subequivalence relations of any non-singular countable equivalence relation with a Polish topology, extending the framework of Kechris' recent monograph on subequivalence relations of probability…

We study certain countable locally finite groups attached to minimal homeomorphisms, and prove that the isomorphism relation on simple, countable, locally finite groups is a universal relation arising from a Borel $S_\infty$-action. This…

A sequence $(a_{n}) $ in an Abelian group is called a $T$-sequence if there exists a Hausdorff group topology on $G$ in which $(a_{n}) $ converges to $0$. For a $T$-sequence $(a_{n}) $, $\tau_{(a_{n}) } $ denotes the strongest group…

A topological space is reversible if each continuous bijection of it onto itself is open. We introduce an analogue of this notion in the category of topological groups: A topological group G is g-reversible if every continuous automorphism…

In this paper we further develop the theory of canonical approximations of Polishable subgroups of Polish groups, building on previous work of Solecki and Farah--Solecki. In particular, we obtain a characterization of such canonical…

We endow a topological group $(G, \tau)$ with a coarse structure defined by the smallest group ideal $S_{\tau} $ on $G$ containing all converging sequences with their limits and denote the obtained coarse group by $(G, S_{\tau})$. If $G$ is…

Coarse geometry is the study of large-scale properties of spaces. In this paper we study group coarse structures (i.e., coarse structures on groups that agree with the algebraic structures), by using group ideals. We introduce a large class…

Let $M$ be a locally symmetric irreducible closed manifold of dimension $\ge 3$. A result of Borel [Bo] combined with Mostow rigidity imply that there exists a finite group $G = G(M)$ such that any finite subgroup of $\text{Homeo}^+(M)$ is…

Louveau and Rosendal [5] have shown that the relation of bi-embeddability for countable graphs as well as for many other natural classes of countable structures is complete under Borel reducibility for analytic equivalence relations. This…

Roe algebras are C*-algebras built using large-scale (or 'coarse') aspects of a metric space (X,d). In the special case that X=G is a finitely generated group and d is a word metric, the simplest Roe algebra associated to (G,d) is…

A Borel equivalence relation on a Polish space is said to be countable if all of its equivalence classes are countable. Standard examples of countable Borel equivalence relations (on the space of subsets of the integers) that occur in…

Given a Polish group $G$, let $E(G)$ be the right coset equivalence relation $G^\omega/c(G)$, where $c(G)$ is the group of all convergent sequences in $G$. The connected component of the identity of a Polish group $G$ is denoted by $G_0$.…
