Problem. Let $\lambda$ be the standard product measure on the Hilbert cube $[-\frac12,\frac12]^\omega$ and $A,B$ be two $\lambda$-positive Borel subsets of $[-\frac12,\frac12]^\omega$. Is it true tha …

A Borel subset $B$ of the unit interval $\mathbb I=(0,1)$ is defined to be a density neighborhood of a set $A\subseteq\mathbb I$ if for every $a\in A$ we have $$\lim_{\varepsilon\to0}\frac{\lambda(B\c …

Question. Can a Borel subset $B\subset\mathbb R\times \mathbb R$ be covered by countably many closed sets of measure zero in the plane if for every $(a,b)\in\mathbb R\times\mathbb R$ the horisontal an …

Let us recall that a topological space $X$ has the Rothberger property if for any sequence $(\mathcal U_n)_{n\in\omega}$ of open covers of $X$ there exists a sequence $(U_n)_{n\in\omega}\in\prod_{n\i …

Let $\mathcal I$ be a $\sigma$-ideal with Borel base on an uncountable Polish space $X=\bigcup\mathcal I$. Let $\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal I)$ (resp. $\mathrm{cov}_\sqcup(\mathcal I)$) be the smallest car …

Let $2^\omega$ be the Cantor cube $\{0,1\}^\omega$, endowed with the standard compact metrizable topology and the standard product measure, called the Haar measure. The Cantor cube is considered as a …

This question was motivated by an answer to this question of Dominic van der Zypen. It relates to the following classical theorem of Sierpiński. Theorem (Sierpiński, 1921). For any countable partition …

Definition. A subset $K$ of a topological group $X$ is called measure-continuous if there exists a $\sigma$-additive Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $X$ such that for every compact subset $C\subset …

Definition. A zero-dimensional topological space $X$ is called base zero-dimensional if for any base $\mathcal B$ of the topology that consists of closed-and-open sets in $X$, any open cover $\math …

First some definitions. For a Polish space $X$ by $P(X)$ we denote the space of all $\sigma$-additive Borel probability measures on $X$. The space $P(X)$ carries a Polish topology generated by the s …

This question is related to this problem on MO about generically Haar-null sets in locally compact Polish groups but is more concrete. First we recall the definition of a generically Haar-null set in …

$\newcommand\Sn{\mathit{Sn}}$A subset $A$ of a group $X$ is called algebraic if $A=\{x\in X: a_0xa_1x\dotsm xa_n=1\}$ for some elements $a_0,a_1,\dotsc,a_n\in X$. Let $\mathcal A_X$ be the family of a …

I am looking for a reference of the following (true) fact: Theorem. For any two continuous strictly positive Borel probability measures $\mu,\lambda$ on the Cantor cube $2^\omega$ there exists a home …

Is there a ZFC-example of a subgroup $H$ of the real line $\mathbb R$ such $H$ is meager, has zero Lebesgue measure, but cannot be covered by countably many closed subsets of measure zero in $\mathbb …

Problem. Is there a partition $\mathbb R^2=A\sqcup B$ of the Euclidean plane into two Lebesgue measurable sets such that for any disk $D$ of the unit radius we get $\lambda(A\cap D)=\lambda(B\cap …
