If $\mathcal{N}$ is a proper Polish metric space and $\mathcal{M}$ is any countable dense submetric space of $\mathcal{N}$, then the Scott rank of $\mathcal{N}$ in the natural first order language of metric spaces is countable and in fact…

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

The Scott rank of a countable structure is a measure, coming from the proof of Scott's isomorphism theorem, of the complexity of that structure. The Scott spectrum of a theory (by which we mean a sentence of $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1 \omega}$)…

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 give a notion of Scott rank for separable metric structures based on the definability of the (metric closures of) automorphism orbits in continuous infinitary logic. This is a continuous analogue of work of Montalb\'an for countable…

For non-empty sets X we define notions of distance and pseudo metric with values in a partially ordered set that has a smallest element $\theta $. If $h_X$ is a distance in $X$ (respectively, a pseudo metric in $X$), then the pair $(X,h_X)$…

A topological space is almost locally compact if it contains a dense locally compact subspace. We generalize a result from \cite{Ma}, showing that isomorphism on Borel classes of almost locally compact Polish metric structures is always…

We show that a set of non-negative reals is the distance set of a separable complete metric space if and only if it is either countable or is an analytic set which has 0 as a limit point. We also consider spaces with simpler distance sets.

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…

We demonstrate that any $\Pi_\alpha$ sentence of the infinitary logic $L_{\omega_1 \omega}$ extending the theory of linear orderings has a model with a $\Pi_{\alpha+4}$ Scott sentence and hence of Scott rank at most $\alpha+3$. In other…

We develop an analogue of the classical Scott analysis for metric structures and infinitary continuous logic. Among our results are the existence of Scott sentences for metric structures and a version of the Lopez-Escobar theorem. We also…

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…

For any Polish space $X$ it is well-known that the Cantor-Bendixson rank provides a co-analytic rank on $F_{\aleph_0}(X)$ if and only if $X$ is a $\sigma$-compact. In the case of $\omega^\omega$ one may recover a co-analytic rank on…

A rank is a notion in descriptive set theory that describes ranks such as the Cantor-Bendixson rank on the set of closed subsets of a Polish space, differentiability ranks on the set of differentiable functions in $C[0,1]$ such as the…

Let $X=G/K$ be a higher rank symmetric space of non-compact type, where $G$ is the connected component of the isometry group of $X$. We define the splitting rank of $X$, denoted by $\text{srk}(X)$, to be the maximal dimension of a totally…

Given a compact space $K$, we denote by $P(K)$ the space of all Radon probability measures on $K$, equipped with the $weak^\ast$ topology inherited from $C(K)^\ast$. For nonmetrizable compacta $K$ even basic properties of $P(K)$ spaces…

In this article we define and study a notion of asymptotic rank for metric spaces and show in our main theorem that for a large class of spaces, the asymptotic rank is characterized by the growth of the higher filling functions. For a…

There are familiar examples of computable structures having various computable Scott ranks. There are also familiar structures, such as the Harrison ordering, which have Scott rank $\omega_1^{CK}+1$. Makkai produced a structure of Scott…

We introduce the notion of compactifiable classes -- these are classes of metrizable compact spaces that can be up to homeomorphic copies ``disjointly combined'' into one metrizable compact space. This is witnessed by so-called compact…

The paper deals with the program of determining the complexity of various homeomorphism relations. The homeomorphism relation on compact Polish spaces is known to be reducible to an orbit equivalence relation of a continuous Polish group…
