Let $G$ be a locally compact Polish group. A metrizable $G$-flow $Y$ is called model-universal if by considering the various invariant probability measures on $Y$, we can recover every free action of $G$ on a standard Lebesgue space up to…
Recently, much interest was devoted to the Urysohn universal metric space U and its isometries; this paper is a contribution to this field of research. In particular, we study some properties of isometries of U, and prove the following…
Given Polish space ${\bf Y}$ and continuous language $L$ we study the corresponding logic $\mathsf{Iso}({\bf Y})$-space ${\bf Y}_L$. We build a framework of generalized model theory towards analysis of Borel/algorithmic complexity of…
We give strong necessary conditions on the admissibility of a Polish group topology for an arbitrary graph product of groups $G(\Gamma, G_a)$, and use them to give a characterization modulo a finite set of nodes. As a corollary, we give a…
We consider the Polish group obtained as the rank-completion of an inductive limit of finite special linear groups. This Polish group is topologically simple modulo its center, it is extremely amenable and has no non-trivial strongly…
We show that the enveloping space $X_G$ of a partial action of a Polish group $G$ on a Polish space $X$ is a standard Borel space, that is to say, there is a topology $\tau$ on $X_G$ such that $(X_G, \tau)$ is Polish and the quotient Borel…
We use countable metric spaces to code Polish metric spaces and evaluate the complexity of some statements about these codes and of some relations that can be determined by the codes. Also, we propose a coding for continuous functions…
A topological space is reversible if each continuous bijection of it onto itself is open. We introduce an analogue of this notion in the category of topological groups: A topological group G is g-reversible if every continuous automorphism…
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 answer some questions from a paper of Krupi\'nski by giving suitable examples of small Polish structures. First, we present a class of small Polish group structures without generic elements. Next, we construct a first example of a small…
Let X be a locally compact Polish space and G a non-discrete Polish ANR group. By C(X,G), we denote the topological group of all continuous maps f:X \to G endowed with the Whitney (graph) topology and by C_c(X,G) the subgroup consisting of…
We develop a generalized covering space theory for a class of uniform spaces called coverable spaces. Coverable spaces include all geodesic metric spaces, connected and locally pathwise connected compact topological spaces, in particular…
We use Fra\" iss\'e theoretic methods to construct several universal and ultrahomogeneous Polish metric structures. Namely, universal and ultrahomogeneous Polish metric space equipped with countably many closed subsets of its powers,…
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…
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 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…
We study geometric properties of GL-spaces. We demonstrate that every finite-dimensional GL-space is polyhedral; that in dimension 2 there are only two, up to isometry, GL-spaces, namely the space whose unit sphere is a square (like…
We prove that for each meager relation $E\subset X\times X$ on a Polish space $X$ there is a nowhere meager subspace $F\subset X$ which is $E$-free in the sense that $(x,y)\notin E$ for any distinct points $x,y\in F$.
For a Polish group G let cov_G be the minimal number of translates of a fixed closed nowhere dense subset of G required to cover G. For many locally compact G this cardinal is known to be consistently larger than cov(meager) which is the…
We characterise Tychonoff spaces X so that C(X) is universally {\sigma}-complete and universally complete, respectively.
