We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…
Many important computational structures involve an intricate interplay between algebraic features (given by operations on the underlying set) and relational features (taking account of notions such as order or distance). This paper…
We study the isomorphism relation on Borel classes of locally compact Polish metric structures. We prove that isomorphism on such classes is always classifiable by countable structures (equivalently: Borel reducible to graph isomorphism),…
We introduce notions of continuous orbit equivalence and strong (respective, weak) continuous orbit equivalence for automorphism systems of \'{e}tale equivalence relations, and characterize them in terms of the semi-direct product…
We continue the study of isomorphisms of tensor algebras associated to a C*-correspondences in the sense of Muhly and Solel. Inspired by by recent work of Davidson, Ramsey and Shalit, we solve isomorphism problems for tensor algebras…
Recently, a surprising connection between algorithmic learning of algebraic structures and descriptive set theory has emerged. Following this line of research, we define the learning power of an equivalence relation $E$ on a topological…
We examine properties of generic automorphisms of the random poset, with the goal of explicitly characterizing them. We associate to each automorphism an auxiliary first-order structure, consisting of the random poset equipped with an…
We consider a slightly modified form of the standard Rudin-Keisler order on ideals and demonstrate the existence of complete (with respect to this order) ideals in various projective classes. Using our methods, we obtain a simple proof of…
We generalize a well-known theorem binding the elementary equivalence relation on the level of PAC fields and the isomorphism class of their absolute Galois groups. Our results concern two cases: saturated PAC structures and non-saturated…
We combine several folklore observations to provide a working framework for iterating constructions which contradict the axiom of choice. We use this to define a model in which any kind of structural failure must fail with a proper class of…
The paper considers the equivalence relation of conjugacy-by-homeomorphism on diffeomorphisms of smooth manifolds. In dimension 2 and above it is shown that there is no Borel method of attaching complete numerical invariants. In dimension 5…
An alternative proof of the completeness of relational algebra with respect to allowed formulas of first-order logic is presented. The proof relies on the well-known embedding of relational algebra into cylindric algebra, which makes it…
In this paper we prove that three of the main propositional logics of dependence (including propositional dependence logic and inquisitive logic), none of which is structural, are structurally complete with respect to a class of…
We introduce the notion of Q-Borel ideals: ideals which are closed under the Borel moves arising from a poset Q. We study decompositions and homological properties of these ideals, and offer evidence that they interpolate between Borel…
The aim of these notes is to study some of the structural aspects of the ring of arithmetical functions. We prove that this ring is neither Noetherian nor Artinian. Furthermore, we construct various types of prime ideals. We also give an…
In this paper we address the question: How many pairwise non-isomorphic extremely amenable groups are there which are separable metrizable or even Polish? We show that there are continuum many such groups. In fact we construct continuum…
Can there be a structure space-type theory for an arbitrary class of ideals of a ring? The ideal spaces introduced in this paper allows such a study and our theory includes (but not restricted to) prime, maximal, minimal prime, strongly…
We prove that it is not possible to classify separable von Neumann factors of types $\II_1$, $\II_\infty$ or $\III_\lambda$, $0\leq \lambda\leq1$, up to isomorphism by a Borel measurable assignment of "countable structures" as invariants.…
We describe totally compatible structures on the Jacobson radical of the incidence algebra of a finite poset over a field. We show that such structures are in general non-proper.
We consider an old question of Slaman and Steel: whether Turing equivalence is an increasing union of Borel equivalence relations none of which contain a uniformly computable infinite sequence. We show this question is deeply connected to…
