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.

The Hausdorff dimension of the set of reals of inner models

Suppose that both $M$ and $N$ are models of $ZFC$ with $M\subseteq N$ so that $M$ is definable in $N$. Question Can $(\mathbb{R})^M$ have Hausdorff dimension strictly between $0$ and $1$ in $N$? How …

Uniformization under AD

Can the following uniformization statement be proved by $ZF+AD+DC$? For any binary relation $R\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$ with the property that $\forall x (\{y\mid R(x,y)\}\mbox{ is at most countable an …

Analytic sets and Turing determinacy

I wonder whether the following question have a positive answer within $ZFC$. Question If $\{A_n\}_{n\in \omega}$ is a sequence of analytic sets so that $\bigcup_n A_n=2^{\omega}$, then there must be …

The measure of ideals generated by random reals

We assume that for every real $x$, $L[x]$ only contains countably many reals. Given a set $X$ of reals, then $L$-ideal generated by $X$ is the smallest set $I$ of reals so that For any reals $x\in …

A slight extension of Sacks theorem

Sacks proves the following theorem first. Theorem 1: If $\alpha$ is a countable admissible ordinal, then there is a real $x$ so that $\omega_1^x=\alpha$. Anyone knows who proves the following sl …

A partial relativization of Gandy's basis theorem

Gandy's basis theorem says that any nonempty $\Sigma^1_1$ set $A$ contains a real $x$ with $\omega_1^x=\omega_1^{CK}$, the least nonrecursive ordinal. Now the following question seems quite interest …

Concerning Silver's result

Jack Silver proved that if $x$ is a real so that every $x$-admissible ordinal is a cardinal in $L$, then $0^{\sharp}$ exists. I wonder whether various weaker or stronger versions of Silver's result …

$\Delta^1_2$-well ordering vs $\Delta^1_3$

It is a classical result that if $0^{\sharp}$ exists, then there is a model of $ZFC$ in which there is a $\Delta^1_3$ well ordering of reals but no $\Delta^1_2$-well ordering. My question is: Is $0^{ …

Decomposing $\mathbf{\Pi}^1_1$ sets into closed sets

It is well known that every $\mathbf{\Pi}^1_1$-set is a union of $\aleph_1$-many Borel sets. I wonder whether it can be improved under certain reasonable set theory axioms assumption. For example, as …

ZFC+``every analytical set is measurable"

I know that "ZFC+the existence of an inaccessible cardinal" is equconsistent to "ZFC + every $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_3$ set is measurable". Then how about the light face case? Without large cardinal ass …

Countable admissible ordinals

Jensen claimed that for any finite increasing sequence countable admissible ordinals $\omega= \alpha_0<\alpha_1\cdots <\alpha_n$, there is a real $x$ so that, for each $m\leq n$, $\alpha_m$ is the $m …
