Abstract

Given a family FF of subsets of a group GG we describe the structure of its thin-completion τ(F)\tau^*(F), which is the smallest thin-complete family that contains II. A family FF of subsets of GG is called thin-complete if each FF-thin subset of GG belongs to FF. A subset AA of GG is called FF-thin if for any distinct points x,yx,y of GG the intersection xAyAxA\cap yA belongs to the family FF. We prove that the thin-completion of an ideal in an ideal. If GG is a countable non-torsion group, then the thin-completion τ(FG)\tau^*(F_G) of the ideal FGF_G of finite subsets of GG is coanalytic but not Borel in the power-set PGP_G of GG.
