We show that orbit equivalence relations arising from essentially free ergodic probability measure preserving actions of Zariski dense discrete subgroups of simple algebraic groups are strongly prime. As a consequence, we prove the…
It is shown that the isomorphism relation between continuous t-norms is Borel bireducible with the relation of order isomorphism between linear orders on the set of natural numbers, and therefore, it is a Borel complete equivalence…
Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group that admits an essential measurable splitting (for instance, any group measure equivalent to a free product of nontrivial groups). We show: (1) for any two nontrivial countable groups $B$ and $C$ that are…
In answer set programming, two groups of rules are considered strongly equivalent if they have the same meaning in any context. In some cases, strong equivalence of programs in the input language of the grounder gringo can be established by…
Let $\Gamma$ be a countable discrete amenable group, and let $A=l^\infty(\Gamma) \rtimes \Gamma$ or $A = \mathrm{C}(M) \rtimes \Gamma$, where $(M, \Gamma)$ is the universal minimal set of $\Gamma$. It is shown that if $a, b \in A \otimes…
We show that if $\mathcal{F}$ is any "well-behaved" subset of the Borel functions and we assume the Axiom of Determinacy then the hierarchy of degrees on $\pow(\mathbb{R})$ induced by $\mathcal{F}$ turns out to look like the Wadge hierarchy…
We consider countable Borel equivalence relations on quotient Borel spaces. We prove a generalization of the Feldman-Moore representation theorem, but provide some examples showing that other very simple properties of countable equivalence…
We show that there is an equivalence in any $n$-topos $\mathcal{X}$ between the pointed and $k$-connective objects of $\mathcal{X}$ and the $\mathbb{E}_k$-group objects of the $(n-k-1)$-truncation of $\mathcal{X}$. This recovers, up to…
We prove that if a countable group $\Gamma$ contains infinite commuting subgroups $H, H'\subset \Gamma$ with $H$ non-amenable and $H'$ ``weakly normal'' in $\Gamma$, then any measure preserving $\Gamma$-action on a probability space which…
We define a notion of entropy for an infinite family $\mathcal{C}$ of measurable sets in a probability space. We show that the mean ergodic theorem holds uniformly for $\mathcal{C}$ under every ergodic transformation if and only if…
We prove that every positive trace on a countably generated *-algebra can be approximated by positive traces on algebras of generic matrices. This implies that every countably generated tracial *-algebra can be embedded into a metric…
Let $S_\infty$ denote the topological group of permutations of the natural numbers. We study the complexity of the isomorphism relation on classes of closed subgroups $S_\infty$ in the setting of Borel reducibility between equivalence…
We consider two twisted actions of a countable discrete group on $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebras. Then by taking the reduced crossed products, we get two inclusions of $C^*$-algebras. We suppose that they are strongly Morita equivalent as…
Boykin and Jackson recently introduced a property of countable Borel equivalence relations called Borel boundedness, which they showed is closely related to the union problem for hyperfinite equivalence relations. In this paper, we…
We show that if A is a linear order then Th(A) is either $\aleph_0$-categorical or Borel complete (in the sense of Friedman and Stanley). We generalize this; if A has countably many unary predicates attached, then Th(A) is…
We prove that the relation of bisimilarity between countable labelled transition systems is $\Sigma_1^1$-complete (hence not Borel), by reducing the set of non-wellorders over the natural numbers continuously to it. This has an impact on…
We show that, for a countable discrete group $\Gamma$, property $(\mathrm{T}_{L^p})$ of Bader, Furman, Gelander and Monod is equivalent to the property that, whenever an $L^p$-representation of $\Gamma$ admits a net of almost invariant unit…
A canonization scheme for smooth equivalence relations on $\mathbb R^\omega$ modulo restriction to infinite perfect products is proposed. It shows that given a pair of Borel smooth equivalence relations $\mathsf E,\mathsf F$ on $\mathbb…
The joint ergodicity classification problem aims to characterize those sequences which are jointly ergodic along an arbitrary dynamical system if and only if they satisfy two natural, simpler-to-verify conditions on this system. These two…
Starting from a uniquely ergodic action of a locally compact group $G$ on a compact space $X_0$, we consider non-commutative skew-product extensions of the dynamics, on the crossed product $C(X_0)\rtimes_\alpha\mathbb{Z}$, through a…
