In this paper the notion of Measure Equivalence (ME) of countable groups is studied. ME was introduced by Gromov as a measure-theoretic analog of quasi-isometries. All lattices in the same locally compact group are Measure Equivalent; this…
The uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ is one of its most basic properties, known far outside of mathematics. Cantor's 1874 proof of the uncountability of $\mathbb{R}$ even appears in the very first paper on set theory, i.e. a historical…
We define the standard Borel space of free Araki-Woods factors and prove that their isomorphism relation is not classifiable by countable structures. We also prove that equality of $\tau$-topologies, arising as invariants of type III…
We prove results that falsify Silver's dichotomy for Borel equivalence relations on the generalised Baire space under the assumption V=L.
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,…
For any continuous map f on a compact manifold M, we define the SRB-like (or observable) probabilities as a generalization of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen (i.e. physical) measures. We prove that f has observable measures, even if SRB measures do not…
We show that a natural generalization of compressibility is the sole obstruction to the existence of a cocycle-invariant Borel probability measure.
We show that the problem of classifying, up to isomorphism, the collection of zero-entropy mixing automorphisms of a standard non-atomic probability space, is intractible. More precisely, the collection of isomorphic pairs of automorphisms…
We show that the continuum hypothesis implies there exists a Lindelof space X such that X x X is the union of two metrizable subspaces but X is not metrizable. This gives a consistent solution to a problem of Balogh, Gruenhage, and Tkachuk.…
We show that for any infinite countable group $G$ and for any free Borel action $G \curvearrowright X$ there exists an equivariant class-bijective Borel map from $X$ to the free part $\mathrm{Free}(2^G)$ of the $2$-shift $G \curvearrowright…
We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…
We consider the problem of determining the complexity of the uniform homeomorphism relation between separable Banach spaces in the Borel reducibility hierarchy of analytic equivalence relations. We prove that the complete $K_{\sigma}$…
The main question here is the possible generalization of the following theorem on ``simple'' equivalence relation on 2^omega to higher cardinals. Theorem: (1) Assume that: (a) E is a Borel 2-place relation on 2^omega, (b) E is an…
We show that for any Polish group $G$ and any countable normal subgroup $\Gamma\triangleleft G$, the coset equivalence relation $G/\Gamma$ is a hyperfinite Borel equivalence relation. In particular, the outer automorphism group of any…
In this article, we study an analogue of $tt$-reducibility for points in computable metric spaces. We characterize the notion of the metric $tt$-degree in the context of first-level Borel isomorphism. Then, we study this concept from the…
In this paper I introduce a new and intuitive first-order foundational theory (where the concept of set is not primitive) and use it to show that the power set of an infinite set does not exist. In particular, proofs of uncountability of a…
Let $\lambda$ be an uncountable cardinal such that $2^{< \lambda } = \lambda$. Working in the setup of generalized descriptive set theory, we study the structure of $\lambda^+$-Borel measurable functions with respect to various kinds of…
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…
Let $(\Omega,\mathcal{F})$ be a standard Borel space and $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{F})$ the collection of all probability measures on $\mathcal{F}$. Let $E\subset\Omega\times\Omega$ be a measurable equivalence relation, that is,…
We study the extension of the Kechris-Solecki-Todorcevic dichotomy on analytic graphs to dimensions higher than 2. We prove that the extension is possible in any dimension, finite or infinite. The original proof works in the case of the…
