Definition of "interval of continuity" for function defined on sets
At the beginning of Chapter 8 of Kubilius's Probabilistic Methods in the Theory of Numbers, the author defines $Q=Q(E)$ to be a completely additive nonnegative function defined for all Borel subsets $...

Borel structure/sets coming from strong operator topology vs norm topology
Let $X, Y$ be Banach spaces. Moreover, let $\mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ be the space of bounded linear operators equipped with the standard operator norm topology, and $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{s}}(X,Y)$ the same ...

Every Borel linearly independent set has Borel linear hull (reference?)
I am looking for a reference to the following fact, which probably is known and could be proved somewhere by someone.
Theorem. The linear hull of any linearly independent Borel set in a Polish ...

Separating two sets by a $\boldsymbol{\Delta}_3^0$ set
Let $X$ be a Polish space and $A,B\subseteq X$ be such that $A\cap B = \emptyset$, we know that if there is no $\boldsymbol{\Delta}_2^0$ set separating $A$ from $B$ then there exists a Cantor set $C\...

A strong Borel selection theorem for equivalence relations
In Kechris' book "Classical Descriptive Set Theory" there is the following theorem (12.16):
Let $X$ be a Polish space and $E$ an equivalence relation such that every equivalence class is ...

Topological complexity of ultrafilters in $2^\kappa$ for uncountable $\kappa$
It is a well known fact that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a non-principal ultrafilter on $\omega$, then the set $\{ \alpha \in 2^\omega : \alpha \in \mathcal{F}\}$ (conflating binary strings with subsets of $\...

A rather non-$F_\sigma$ Borel set
I asked this question at MSE a week ago, but received no answer, so I cross-post it here.
I obtained a negative answer to this MSE question provided each metric space $X$ such that $|X|=\frak c$ and ...

Sierpinski's characterization of $F_{\sigma\delta}$ spaces
According to [2]: Let $X$ be a space. We call a system $(X_s)_{s\in T}$ a Sierpinski
stratification of $X$ if $T$ is a nonempty tree over a countable alphabet and $X_s$ is a closed subset of $X$ for ...

Topology on the space of Borel measures
Let $ B $ be the set of all measures $ \phi $ of $ \mathbf{R}^{n} $ such that every open set is $ \phi $-measurable (sometimes these measures are called Borel measures). Note the measures in $ B $ are ...

A question about Borel sets on the unit interval
It is known that each non-decreasing continuous function $\phi$ induces a $\sigma$-additive measure $d\phi$ such that $\int_0^1 f(x) d\phi(x)$ exists for every bounded real-valued Baire function $f$. ...

Borel subsets of Polish groups
Suppose that I have a polish group $G$ and two subsets $A$ and $B$ of $G$ such that: $A$ is open in $G$ and $B$ is closed in $G,$ from this, can I conclude that $AB$ is a Borel subset of $G$? if not, ...

When do Borel $\sigma$-algebras generated by the total variation norm and the weak* topology coincide?
I am almost certain that I read somewhere that the following is true, but I cannot seem to locate the reference. I would be most appreciative if someone could point me to a reference. The result was ...

Reference to definition of matrix log with domain SO(3) which is Borel measurable
I was trying to set up an inverse to matrix exponential $\exp:\mathrm{Skew}(3\times 3)\to SO(3)$ that "covers" the biggest possible domain and is Borel measurable. I was wondering if there is a ...

Unbounded Class of Orbit Equivalence Relations
In their paper titled "The Classification of Hypersmooth Borel Equivalence Relations" Alexander Kechris and Alain Louveau quote the following (Theorem 5.2 in the article) as "Harrington, unpublished": ...
