Descriptive Set Theory is the study of definable subsets of Polish spaces, where definable is taken to mean from the Borel or projective hierarchies. Other topics include infinite games and determinacy, definable equivalence relations and Borel reductions between them, Polish groups, and effective descriptive set theory.

Maps that are a.e. equal have almost the same graphs

Let $X$ and $Y$ be two measurable spaces, and let $p$ be a probability measure on $X\times Y$. Denote by $p_X$ the marginal of $p$ on $X$, that is an image of $p$ under projection on $X$. Consider two …

Existence of a map connecting two marginals of a product measure

Let $X$ and $\bar X$ be two standard Borel spaces, and let $A\subseteq X\times\bar X$ be an analytic subset of the product space. Let $P$ be any probability measure such that $P(A) = 1$, and denote by …

Universally measurable map coincides a.e. with a Borel map

Let $X$ be a standard Borel space: that is, a topological space equivalent to a Borel subset of $\Bbb R$. It is known that for any probability measure $p$ on $X$ and any universally measurable set $A\ …

Borel kernel over an analytic set implies existence of a Borel map

Let $X$ and $Y$ be standard Borel spaces, and let $A\subseteq X\times Y$ be an analytic set with a full projection on $X$: that is $\pi_X(A) = X$. Suppose that there exists a Borel-measurable kernel $ …

Particular neighborhoods of analytical sets

Let $X$ be a standard Borel space: a topological space isomorphic to a Borel subset of a complete separable metric space. Denote by $\mathcal P(X)$ the set of all Borel probability measures over $X$ e …

Analytic enlargement of an analytic set

Let $X,Y$ be Borel spaces and $A\subseteq X\times Y$ be an analytic set. Let $\pi:X\times Y \to X$ denote the projection map onto $X$. Does there always exist a set $B$ such that $\pi(B) = X\setminus …

Inverse of a Borel surjection

Let $X$ and $Y$ be standard Borel spaces, and let $f:X\to Y$ be a surjective Borel map. Does there exist a Borel inverse of $f$, that is a Borel map $g:Y\to X$ such that $f\circ g = \mathrm{id}_Y$. I …

Existence of an universally measurable pullback

Let $X,Y$ and $Z$ be standard Borel spaces: topological spaces homeomorphic to Borel subsets of complete separable metric spaces. Let $K\subseteq X\times Y$ be analytic. Assume that $K_x$ is not emp …

Quotients of standard Borel spaces

Let $X$ and $Y$ be standard Borel spaces: topological spaces homeomorphic to Borel subsets of complete metric spaces. Given a surjective Borel map $f:X\to Y$, we get an equivalence relation $\sim_f\su …

Uniformization/measurable selection theorems

Let $X,Y$ be measurable spaces and $F\subseteq X\times Y$. We say that $f:X\to Y$ is a uniformization map for $F$ if $(x,f(x))\in F$ for each $x\in \pi_X(F)$ where $\pi_X$ is the left projection map. …
