We extend the result of Nadel describing the relationship between approximations of canonical Scott sentences and admissible sets to the general case of orbit equivalence relations induced on an arbitrary Polish space by a Polish group…
A variation of the Scott analysis of countable structures is applied to actions of non-Archimedean TSI Polish groups acting continuously on a Polish spaces. We give results on the potential Borel complexity spectrum of such groups, and…
It is a long-standing open question whether every Polish group that is not locally compact admits a Borel action on a standard Borel space whose associated orbit equivalence relation is not essentially countable. We answer this question…
Let G be a closed subgroup of the group of all permutations of a countably infinite set. Let X be a Polish G-space with a countable basis A of clopen sets. Each x from X defines a characteristic function f on A by f(U)=1 iff x belongs to U…
Working in the framework of Borel reducibility, we study various notions of embeddability between groups. We prove that the embeddability between countable groups, the topological embeddability between (discrete) Polish groups, and the…
We study Polish spaces for which a set of possible distances $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^+$ is fixed in advance. We determine, depending on the properties of $A$, the complexity of the collection of all Polish metric spaces with distances in…
In this paper we further develop the theory of canonical approximations of Polishable subgroups of Polish groups, building on previous work of Solecki and Farah--Solecki. In particular, we obtain a characterization of such canonical…
In this paper we investigate the action of Polish groups (not necessary abelian) on an uncountable Polish spaces. We consider two main situations. First, when the orbits given by group action are small and the second when the family of…
We show that a {\it Borel} action of a Polish group on a standard Borel space is Borel isomorphic to a {\it continuous} action of the group on a Polish space, and we apply this result to three aspects of the theory of Borel actions of…
We study Borel equivalence relations equipped with a uniformly Borel family of Polish topologies on each equivalence class, and more generally, standard Borel groupoids equipped with such a family of topologies on each connected component.…
We study continuous actions of Polish groups on Polish spaces. We develop Scott analysis introduced by Hjorth for studying orbit equivalence relations. We define eventually open actions and prove that this property characterizes the actions…
We give a partial answer to an important open problem in descriptive set theory, the Decomposability Conjecture for Borel functions on an analytic subset of a Polish space to a separable metrizable space. Our techniques employ deep results…
We prove that the isomorphism relation for separable C$^*$-algebras, and also the relations of complete and $n$-isometry for operator spaces and systems, are Borel reducible to the orbit equivalence relation of a Polish group action on a…
We define and study Poissonian actions of Polish groups as a framework to Poisson suspensions, characterize them spectrally, and provide a complete characterization of their ergodicity. We further construct 'spatial' Poissonian actions,…
We introduce and study the notion of functorial Borel complexity for Polish groupoids. Such a notion aims at measuring the complexity of classifying the objects of a category in a constructive and functorial way. In the particular case of…
We begin the systematic study of decision problems for finitely generated groups given by a solution to their word problem. We relate this to the study of computable analysis on the space of marked groups. We point out that several distinct…
We show that every abelian Polish group is the topological factor-group of a closed subgroup of the full unitary group of a separable Hilbert space with the strong operator topology. It follows that all orbit equivalence relations induced…
We analyse logic actions of Polish groups which arise in continuous logic. We extend the generalised model theory of H.Becker to the case of Polish G-spaces when G is an arbitrary Polish group.
We study topological groups that can be defined as Polish, pro-countable abelian groups, as non-archimedean abelian groups or as quasi-countable abelian groups, i.e., Polish subdirect products of countable, discrete groups, endowed with the…
Hjorth has introduced a Scott analysis for general Polish group actions, and has asked whether his notion of rank satisfies a boundedness principle similar to the one of Scott rank - namely, the orbit equivalence relation is Borel if and…
