Descriptive Set Theory Continuous Reductions on Polish Spaces and Quasi-Polish Spaces Master Thesis Descriptive Set Theory Continuous Reductions on Polish Spaces and Quasi-Polish Spaces Louis Vuilleumier Under the supervision of Pr. Jacques Duparc January 15, 2016 Abstract A subset A ⊆ X of a topological space X is continuously reducible to a subset 1 B ⊆ X if there exists a continuous function f ∶ X → X such that f − (B) = A: In this case, we write A ≤W B: The binary relation ≤W is a quasi-order. This Master Thesis is devoted to the study of the continuous reducibility for subsets of some topological spaces. First, we study continuous reducibility on the Baire ! space ! using games. Then, we show that ≤W is very complicated on the subsets of the real line. Finally, we give a game characterization of ≤W in P(!) equipped with the Scott topology.

January 15, 2016, Louis Vuilleumier 1 Introduction Historically, descriptive set theory is the study of the subsets of the real line. It was born with measure theory, when the question of which subsets of R are measurable, and which are not, was addressed. During the development of this new area of study, mathematicians observed that they could generalize this study to the study of subsets of more general spaces, the Polish spaces, without losing too many tools. In order to understand the measurability of subsets, it is an usual practice to hierarchize them from the simple ones to the more complex ones. A first way of doing this is to consider the σ-algebra of the Borel sets, with the hierarchy obtained by considering how far sets are from being open, i.e. which operations we need to construct them from the open sets. This hierarchy is fundamental in the development of descriptive set theory. One interesting property of each class of this hierarchy is the closure under continuous preimages. Therefore, W. Wadge [Wad84] had the idea of consid- ering the hierarchy built from classes closed under continuous preimages. It is the Wadge hierarchy. This is natural in a topological sense since all classical topology is built from the open sets and the continuous functions. We can view two subsets A and B in some topological space X as being equivalent in the 1 Wadge hierarchy if there exist two functions f; g ∶ X → X such that f − (A) = B 1 and g− (B) = A. In this case, we say that A is continuously reducible to B and vice versa. Wadge’s famous idea was to consider games that are equivalent to continuous reducibility in the Baire space !! of infinite sequences of integers. Using game theoretical tools, Wadge was able to give a whole, nice picture of the Wadge hierarchy on the Borel sets of the Baire space !!. The first part of this Master Thesis is to try to understand the Wadge hierarchy on some Polish spaces and to try to justify the constructions and the choices which are made all along the study. A second part consists of trying to study a similar game characterization of continuous reducibility designed by Pr. ! Jacques Duparc on a space which is different from ! ; namely P(!) equipped with the Scott topology. In Chapter 1, we give some of the set theoretical and topological prerequisites and notations that we will need all along the work. It is in this Chapter that we define the most important space of Wadge’s work, the Baire space !!. In Chapter 2, we define and understand the objects of study of descriptive set theory, the Polish spaces. We start by giving examples and then we give some properties of these spaces. One important property is the universality of !! among all the zero-dimensional Polish spaces (Theorem 2.54), which are a kind of Polish spaces. Indeed, this result allows us to design games in all zero-dimensional Polish spaces. Chapter 3 is dedicated to the definitions of hierarchies on Polish spaces, 2 such as the Borel hierarchy and the Wadge hierarchy. In this Chapter, we try to motivate our deep study of the Wadge hierarchy on !!. In Chapter 4, we come finally to the definition of the game designed by Wadge. With this game and some game theoretical tools such as Borel-determinacy (Theorem 4.10), we obtain the whole picture of the Wadge hierarchy on the Borel subsets of the Baire space. In particular, we show that this hierarchy is well-founded and has maximal antichains of size 2. Chapter 5 is dedicated to the study of the Wadge hierarchy on the real line. In this Chapter, we show that, without a game characterization, the Wadge hierarchy becomes very difficult to understand. In particular, it is not well- founded and it has infinite antichains. Finally, in Chapter 6, we try to generalize Polish spaces by considering quasi- Polish spaces. M. De Brecht [DB13] showed that it is an interesting generaliza- tion for several reasons. Among these quasi-Polish spaces, P(!) equipped with the Scott topology is universal (Theorem 6.30). The study of the Wadge hier- archy on this space is encouraged by the game characterization of continuous function designed by Pr. Jacques Duparc. Hence, we hope this game will give us a nice picture of the Wadge hierarchy of P(!). This study that we constructed in this work is not exhaustive and deserves more time. 3 Chapter 1 Prerequisites In this Chapter, we introduce all the basic notions we need in the rest of this work. This is mostly notations and well known topological facts. The major part of this Chapter is covered in a first semester course in Topology, hence, we will most of the time omit the proofs. 1.1 Set Theory We precise that, all along this work, our framework is classical logic and we work within the theory (ZF ) of Zermelo-Fraenkel. Sometimes, we will need more assumptions on the theory, such as the Axiom of Choice (AC), or the Axiom of countable Choice (AC!). We just recall the definitions of the Axiom of Choice and of countable Choice. The Axiom of Choice guarantees the existence of a choice function on every family of nonempty sets. Hence, we can state it as: ∀S(X ∈ S → ∅ ≠ X) → ∃f ∶ S → X; (f(X) ∈ X) : X∈S The Axiom of countable Choice is the same statement applied only for countable families S: Under (AC!); we can prove the following result which we will use a lot. Proposition 1.1. A countable union of countably many sets is countable. In the rest of this work, we will always assume the Axiom of countable Choice to be true. In some cases, for example to construct pathological behaviors, we will use the Axiom of Choice. Hence, in these cases, we will say explicitly that we assume the Axiom of Choice. We have two others characterizations of the Axiom of Choice. First, it is equivalent to Zermelo’s Theorem. Theorem 1.2. Every set can be well-ordered. A well-ordering of a set is a binary relation which is total, anti-symmetric, transitive and such that every nonempty subset has a least element.

  • Calibrating Determinacy Strength in Levels of the Borel Hierarchy
    CALIBRATING DETERMINACY STRENGTH IN LEVELS OF THE BOREL HIERARCHY SHERWOOD J. HACHTMAN Abstract. We analyze the set-theoretic strength of determinacy for levels of the Borel 0 hierarchy of the form Σ1+α+3, for α < !1. Well-known results of H. Friedman and D.A. Martin have shown this determinacy to require α+1 iterations of the Power Set Axiom, but we ask what additional ambient set theory is strictly necessary. To this end, we isolate a family of Π1-reflection principles, Π1-RAPα, whose consistency strength corresponds 0 CK exactly to that of Σ1+α+3-Determinacy, for α < !1 . This yields a characterization of the levels of L by or at which winning strategies in these games must be constructed. When α = 0, we have the following concise result: the least θ so that all winning strategies 0 in Σ4 games belong to Lθ+1 is the least so that Lθ j= \P(!) exists + all wellfounded trees are ranked". x1. Introduction. Given a set A ⊆ !! of sequences of natural numbers, consider a game, G(A), where two players, I and II, take turns picking elements of a sequence hx0; x1; x2;::: i of naturals. Player I wins the game if the sequence obtained belongs to A; otherwise, II wins. For a collection Γ of subsets of !!, Γ determinacy, which we abbreviate Γ-DET, is the statement that for every A 2 Γ, one of the players has a winning strategy in G(A). It is a much-studied phenomenon that Γ -DET has mathematical strength: the bigger the pointclass Γ, the stronger the theory required to prove Γ -DET.

  • Descriptive Set Theory of Complete Quasi-Metric Spaces
    数理解析研究所講究録 第 1790 巻 2012 年 16-30 16 Descriptive set theory of complete quasi-metric spaces Matthew de Brecht National Institute of Information and Communications Technology Kyoto, Japan Abstract We give a summary of results from our investigation into extending classical descriptive set theory to the entire class of countably based $T_{0}$ -spaces. Polish spaces play a central role in the descriptive set theory of metrizable spaces, and we suggest that countably based completely quasi-metrizable spaces, which we refer to as quasi-Polish spaces, play the central role in the extended theory. The class of quasi-Polish spaces is general enough to include both Polish spaces and $\omega$ -continuous domains, which have many applications in theoretical computer science. We show that quasi-Polish spaces are a very natural generalization of Polish spaces in terms of their topological characterizations and their complete- ness properties. In particular, a metrizable space is quasi-Polish if and only if it is Polish, and many classical theorems concerning Polish spaces, such as the Hausdorff-Kuratowski theorem, generalize to all quasi-Polish spaces. 1. Introduction Descriptive set theory has proven to be an invaluable tool for the study of separable metrizable spaces, and the techniques and results have been applied to many fields such as functional analysis, topological group theory, and math- ematical logic. Separable completely metrizable spaces, called Polish spaces, play a central role in classical descriptive set theory. These spaces include the space of natural numbers with the discrete topology, the real numbers with the Euclidean topology, as well as the separable Hilbert and Banach spaces.

Kechris ’ Department of Mathematics, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA Received 28 March 1994 Abstract This paper consists essentially of the text of a series of four lectures given by the author in the Summer Conference on General Topology and Applications, Amsterdam, August 1994. Instead of attempting to give a general survey of the interrelationships between the two subjects mentioned in the title, which would be an enormous and hopeless task, we chose to illustrate them in a specific context, that of the study of Bore1 actions of Polish groups and Bore1 equivalence relations. This is a rapidly growing area of research of much current interest, which has interesting connections not only with topology and set theory (which are emphasized here), but also to ergodic theory, group representations, operator algebras and logic (particularly model theory and recursion theory). There are four parts, corresponding roughly to each one of the lectures. The first contains a brief review of some fundamental facts from descriptive set theory. In the second we discuss Polish groups, and in the third the basic theory of their Bore1 actions. The last part concentrates on Bore1 equivalence relations. The exposition is essentially self-contained, but proofs, when included at all, are often given in the barest outline. Keywords: Polish spaces; Bore1 sets; Analytic sets; Polish groups; Bore1 actions; Bore1 equivalence relations 1.

  • Polish Spaces and Baire Spaces
    Polish spaces and Baire spaces Jordan Bell [email protected] Department of Mathematics, University of Toronto June 27, 2014 1 Introduction These notes consist of me working through those parts of the first chapter of Alexander S. Kechris, Classical Descriptive Set Theory, that I think are impor- tant in analysis. Denote by N the set of positive integers. I do not talk about universal spaces like the Cantor space 2N, the Baire space NN, and the Hilbert cube [0; 1]N, or \localization", or about Polish groups. If (X; τ) is a topological space, the Borel σ-algebra of X, denoted by BX , is the smallest σ-algebra of subsets of X that contains τ. BX contains τ, and is closed under complements and countable unions, and rather than talking merely about Borel sets (elements of the Borel σ-algebra), we can be more specific by talking about open sets, closed sets, and sets that are obtained by taking countable unions and complements. Definition 1. An Fσ set is a countable union of closed sets. A Gδ set is a complement of an Fσ set. Equivalently, it is a countable intersection of open sets. If (X; d) is a metric space, the topology induced by the metric d is the topology generated by the collection of open balls. If (X; τ) is a topological space, a metric d on the set X is said to be compatible with τ if τ is the topology induced by d.A metrizable space is a topological space whose topology is induced by some metric, and a completely metrizable space is a topological space whose topology is induced by some complete metric.

  • Effective Cardinals of Boldface Pointclasses
    EFFECTIVE CARDINALS OF BOLDFACE POINTCLASSES ALESSANDRO ANDRETTA, GREG HJORTH, AND ITAY NEEMAN Abstract. Assuming AD + DC(R), we characterize the self-dual boldface point- classes which are strictly larger (in terms of cardinality) than the pointclasses contained in them: these are exactly the clopen sets, the collections of all sets of ξ ξ Wadge rank ≤ ω1, and those of Wadge rank < ω1 when ξ is limit. 1. Introduction A boldface pointclass (for short: a pointclass) is a non-empty collection Γ of subsets of R such that Γ is closed under continuous pre-images and Γ 6= P(R). 0 0 0 Examples of pointclasses are the levels Σα, Πα, ∆α of the Borel hierarchy and the 1 1 1 levels Σn, Πn, ∆n of the projective hierarchy. In this paper we address the following Question 1. What is the cardinality of a pointclass? Assuming AC, the Axiom of Choice, Question 1 becomes trivial for all pointclasses Γ which admit a complete set. These pointclasses all have size 2ℵ0 under AC. On the other hand there is no obvious, natural way to associate, in a one-to-one way, 0 an open set (or for that matter: a closed set, or a real number) to any Σ2 set. This 0 0 suggests that in the realm of definable sets and functions already Σ1 and Σ2 may have different sizes. Indeed the second author in [Hjo98] and [Hjo02] showed that AD + V = L(R) actually implies 0 0 (a) 1 ≤ α < β < ω1 =⇒ |Σα| < |Σβ|, and 1 1 1 (b) |∆1| < |Σ1| < |Σ2| < .

  • The Envelope of a Pointclass Under a Local Determinacy Hypothesis
    THE ENVELOPE OF A POINTCLASS UNDER A LOCAL DETERMINACY HYPOTHESIS TREVOR M. WILSON Abstract. Given an inductive-like pointclass Γ and assuming the Ax- iom of Determinacy, Martin identified and analyzede the pointclass con- taining the norm relations of the next semiscale beyond Γ, if one exists. We show that much of Martin's analysis can be carriede out assuming only ZF + DCR + Det(∆Γ). This generalization requires arguments from Kechris{Woodin [10] ande e Martin [13]. The results of [10] and [13] can then be recovered as immediate corollaries of the general analysis. We also obtain a new proof of a theorem of Woodin on divergent models of AD+, as well as a new result regarding the derived model at an inde- structibly weakly compact limit of Woodin cardinals. Introduction Given an inductive-like pointclass Γ, Martin introduced a pointclass (which we call the envelope of Γ, following [22])e whose main feature is that it con- tains the prewellorderingse of the next scale (or semiscale) beyond Γ, if such a (semi)scale exists. This work was distributed as \Notes on the nexte Suslin cardinal," as cited in Jackson [3]. It is unpublished, so we use [3] as our reference instead for several of Martin's arguments. Martin's analysis used the assumption of the Axiom of Determinacy. We reformulate the notion of the envelope in such a way that many of its essen- tial properties can by derived without assuming AD. Instead we will work in the base theory ZF+DCR for the duration of the paper, stating determinacy hypotheses only when necessary.

Wadge Degrees of ω-Languages of Petri Nets Olivier Finkel Equipe de Logique Mathématique Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu - Paris Rive Gauche CNRS et Université Paris 7, France. [email protected] Abstract We prove that ω-languages of (non-deterministic) Petri nets and ω-languages of (non-deterministic) Tur- ing machines have the same topological complexity: the Borel and Wadge hierarchies of the class of ω-languages of (non-deterministic) Petri nets are equal to the Borel and Wadge hierarchies of the class of ω-languages of (non-deterministic) Turing machines which also form the class of effective analytic CK 0 sets. In particular, for each non-null recursive ordinal α < ω1 there exist some Σα-complete and some 0 Πα-complete ω-languages of Petri nets, and the supremum of the set of Borel ranks of ω-languages of 1 CK Petri nets is the ordinal γ2 , which is strictly greater than the first non-recursive ordinal ω1 .
