We assess the descriptive complexity of *bisimilarity* or "equality of behavior" on a family of Markov decision processes over uncountable standard Borel spaces, namely *nondeterministic labelled Markov processes* (NLMP). We show that…

We prove that under certain set-theoretic assumptions every productively Lindel\"of space has the Hurewicz covering property, thus improving upon some earlier results of Aurichi and Tall.

Pairs of metrics in a two-dimensional linear vector space are considered, one of which is a Minkowski type metric. Their simultaneous diagonalizability is studied and canonical presentations for them are suggested.

We prove that any absolutely continuous probability measure on a high-dimensional linear space has low-dimensional marginals that are approximately spherically-symmetric.

This paper studies transition probabilities from a Borel subset of a Polish space to a product of two Borel subsets of Polish spaces. For such transition probabilities it introduces and studies the property of semi-uniform Feller…

We prove new concentration estimates for random variables that are functionals of a Poisson measure defined on a general measure space. Our results are specifically adapted to geometric applications, and are based on a pervasive use of a…

The motivation of this article is to introduce a kind of orbit equivalence relations which can well describe structures and properties of Polish groups from the perspective of Borel reducibility. Given a Polish group $G$, let $E(G)$ be the…

For arbitrary Borel probability measures with compact support on the real line, characterizations are established of the best finitely supported approximations, relative to three familiar probability metrics (Levy, Kantorovich, and…

We prove that if two topologically free and entropy regular actions of countable sofic groups on compact metrizable spaces are continuously orbit equivalent, and each group either (i) contains a w-normal amenable subgroup which is neither…

We prove that Misiurewicz parameters with prescribed combinatorics and hyperbolic parameters with (d - 1) distinct attracting cycles with given multipliers are equidistributed with respect to the bifurcation measure in the moduli space of…

Following the work of Friedman, Koerwien, Nies and Schlicht we positively answer their question whether the Scott rank of Polish metric spaces is countable.

We consider skew-products of quadratic maps over certain Misiurewicz-Thurston maps and study their statistical properties. We prove that, when the coupling function is a polynomial of odd degree, such a system admits two positive Lyapunov…

Embeddings among fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces with different smoothness are characterized. The equivalence of their Gagliardo-Slobodeckij norms to norms defined via Littlewood-Paley decompostions, via oscillations, or via Besov type…

For a metrizable space, we consider the space of all metrics generating the same topology of the metrizable space, and this space of metrics is equipped with the supremum metric. In this paper, for every metrizable space, we establish that…

The general notion of a stochastic ordering is that one probability distribution is smaller than a second one if the second attaches more probability to higher values than the first. Motivated by recent work on barycentric maps on spaces of…

The paper contains a brief description of Yamasaki's remarkable investigation (1980) of the relationship between Moore-Yamasaki-Kharazishvili type measures and infinite powers of Borel diffused probability measures on ${\bf R}$. More…

In this article we extend the notion of metric measure spaces to so-called metric two-level measure spaces (m2m spaces): An m2m space $(X, r, \nu)$ is a Polish metric space $(X, r)$ equipped with a two-level measure $\nu \in…

We prove that topological isomorphism on procountable groups is not classifiable by countable structures, in the sense of descriptive set theory. In fact, the equivalence relation $\ell_\infty$ expressing that two sequences of reals have a…

This paper derives a sufficient condition for the existence of cohomogeneity one Einstein metrics on double disk bundles of two summands type. The condition is an inequality that involves geometric data from the principal orbits.
