The classcollection of binary relations $R$ on the natural numbers such that $(\mathbb{N},R) \models ZFC$

binary relations $R$ on the natural numbers such that $(\mathbb{N},R) \models ZFC$

forms a Borel set, neither closed nor open -- assuming Con(ZFC).

  • Can you show it's not $F_\sigma$ or $G_\delta$?

  • Is it actually complete for level $\omega$ of the Borel hierarchy?

The class of binary relations $R$ on the natural numbers such that $(\mathbb{N},R) \models ZFC$ forms a Borel set, neither closed nor open. Is it in some sense complete for finite levels of the Borel hierarchy?
