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.

Hurewicz versus Wadge hierarchy of zero-dimensional Borel sets?
Given two subsets $A,B$ of the Cantor cube $2^\omega$ we write $A\le_W B$ (resp. $A\le_H B$) if there is a continuous (and injective) function $f:2^\omega\to 2^\omega$ such that $f^{-1}(B)=A$. The rel …

Is the space of countable closed covers of the Cantor set analytic?
For an uncountable compact metric space $X$ denote by $K(X)$ be the hyperspace of non-empty compact subsets of $X$, endowed with the Vietoris topology (which is generated by the Hausdorff metric).
I …

Borel complexity of special unions of Polish spaces
Let $X$ be a compact metrizable space and $(A_q)_{q\in\mathbb Q}$ be a family of pairwise disjoint sets, indexed by rational numbers. Assume that the family $(A_q)_{q\in\mathbb Q}$ has the following p …

Is there a first-countable space containing a closed discrete subset which is not $G_\delta$?
Being motivated by this problem, I am searching for an example of a first-countable regular topological space $X$ containing a closed discrete subset $D$, which is not $G_\delta$ in $X$.
It is easy …

Codimension of analytic linear subspaces in Polish vector spaces
Let $A$ be a linear analytic subspace of a Polish vector space $X$.
Using Piccard-Pettis Theorem, it is easy to prove that $A$ has uncountable codimension in $X$. If $A$ is of type $F_\sigma$, then ap …

Countable network vs countable Borel network
Definition. A family $\mathcal N$ of subsets of a topological space $X$ is called
$\bullet$ a network if for any open set $U\subset X$ and point $x\in U$ there exists a set $N\in\mathcal N$ such that …

Bernstein sets of large cardinality
A metrizable space $X$ will be called a generalized Bernstein set if every closed completely metrizable subspace $C$ of $X$ has cardinality $|C|<|X|$.
It is well-known that the real line contains a ( …

A non-Borel union of unit half-open squares
On the complex plane $\mathbb C$ consider the half-open square $$\square=\{z\in\mathbb C:0\le\Re(z)<1,\;0\le\Im(z)<1\}.$$
Observe that for every $z\in \mathbb C$ and $p\in\{0,1,2,3\}$ the set $(z+i^ …

On continuous perturbations of functions of the first Baire class on the Cantor set
Is it true that for any function of the first Baire class $f:X\to\mathbb R$ on the Cantor cube $X=2^\omega$ there is a continuous function $g:X\to[0,1]$ such that the image $(f+g)(X)$ is disjoint with …
