Dobi\'nski set $\mathcal{D}$ is an exceptional set for a certain infinite product identity, whose points are characterized as having exceedingly good approximations by dyadic rationals. We study the Hausdorff dimension and logarithmic…

Cantor sets in \(\mathbb{R}\) are common examples of sets for which Hausdorff measures can be positive and finite. However, there exist Cantor sets for which no Hausdorff measure is supported and finite. The purpose of this paper is to try…

In recent years, much work has been done to measure and compare the complexity of orbit equivalence relations, especially for certain classes of Polish groups. We start by introducing some language to organize this previous work, namely the…

The paper contains two results pointing to the lack of symmetry between measure and category. Assume CH. There exists a strongly meager subset of the Cantor set that can be mapped onto the Cantor set by a uniformly continuous function. (It…

For an increasing sequence $(T_n)$ of one-parameter semigroups of sub Markovian kernel operators over a Polish space, we study the limit semigroup and prove sufficient conditions for it to be strongly Feller. In particular, we show that the…

We present the (Lascar) Galois group of any countable theory as a quotient of a compact Polish group by an $F_\sigma$ normal subgroup: in general, as a topological group, and under NIP, also in terms of Borel cardinality. This allows us to…

We present an alternative proof of Sanov's theorem for Polish spaces in the weak topology that follows via discretization arguments. We combine the simpler version of Sanov's Theorem for discrete finite spaces and well chosen finite…

We give a classification of unitary representations of certain Polish, not necessarily locally compact, groups: the groups of all measurable functions with values in the circle and the groups of all continuous functions on compact, second…

We extend some results of Carderi and Le Ma\^itre on full groups in the probability context to the infinite measure one: there exists at most one Polish group topology (refining the weak topology and coarser than the uniform topology) on an…

The first part of these notes give an introduction to the theory of Polish group actions on compact Hausdorff spaces, leading up to a proof of the Kechris-Pestov-Todorcevic correspondence and discussions of properties of universal minimal…

Kunen's proof of the non-existence of Reinhardt cardinals opened up the research on very large cardinals, i.e., hypotheses at the limit of inconsistency. One of these large cardinals, I0, proved to have descriptive-set-theoretical…

We classify the measures on SL (k,R)/SL (k,Z) which are invariant and ergodic under the action of the group A of positive diagonal matrices with positive entropy. We apply this to prove that the set of exceptions to Littlewood's conjecture…

Effective versions of strong measure zero sets are developed for various levels of complexity and computability. It is shown that the sets can be equivalently defined using a generalization of supermartingales called odds supermartingales,…

An important theorem of geometric measure theory (first proved by Besicovitch and Davies for Euclidean space) says that every analytic set of non-zero $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $\mathcal H^s$ contains a closed subset of non-zero…

We apply the theory of large-scale geometry of Polish groups to groups of absolutely continuous homeomorphisms. Let $M$ be either the compact interval or circle. We prove that the Polish group $\operatorname{AC}_+(M)$ of…

In this paper, we show that sets with zero Sobolev $p(\cdot)$-capacity have generalized Hausdorff $h(\cdot)$-measure zero, for some gauge function $h(\cdot).$ We also prove that sets with zero Musielak-Orlicz-Sobolev…

The aim of this note is to show, by providing an elementary way to construct counter-examples, that the strong Feller and the joint (space-time) continuity for a semigroup of Markov kernels on a Polish space are not enough to ensure the…

We investigate some basic descriptive set theory for countably based completely quasi-metrizable topological spaces, which we refer to as quasi-Polish spaces. These spaces naturally generalize much of the classical descriptive set theory of…

We prove that it is relatively consistent with $\mathrm{ZFC}$ that every strong measure zero subset of the real line is meager-additive while there are uncountable strong measure zero sets (i.e., Borel's conjecture fails). This answers a…
