On Banach and Kuratowski Theorem and generalized strong sequences

Abstract

In 1929, Banach and Kuratowski proved under CH a combinatorial theorem, which implies that there is not a non-vanishing $σ$-additive finite measure on $\mathbb{R}$ which is defined for every set of reals. In 2003 Bartoszyński and Halbeisen proved that Banach and Kuratowski theorem is equivalent to the existence of a K-Lusin set of the cardinality continuum an the existence of such sets is independent of $ZFC + \neg CH$. On the other hand in 1965 Efimov introduced the strong sequences method which used to prove some well-known theorems in dyadic spaces. The aim of this paper is to show that all this notions can be generalized, i.e. considered in the generalized Baire space and to show some equivalences among them. Moreover, some applications in the direction of calibres, boundedness and partitions relations are also shown.

Loops, Inverse Limits and Non-Determinism

We introduce an operator on problems in Weihrauch complexity, which we call the infinite loop or inverse limit, and which corresponds to an infinite compositional product. This operation arises naturally whenever one implements algorithms that produce a sequence of results in an infinite loop, using some fixed subroutine. We prove that the corresponding operator is monotone with respect to (strong) Weihrauch reducibility but that it is not a closure operator. One of our findings is that weak Kőnig's lemma is closed under infinite loops, which implies that the class of non-deterministically computable problems is also closed under this operation. Consequently, this class allows for a high degree of flexibility in programming. As our main technical tools, we present an injective version of the recursion theorem and an infinitary version of the so-called independent choice theorem. We also show that, in general, the infinite loop operator is more powerful than the composition of the diamond operator followed by the parallelization operator. However, in many practical scenarios, these compositions yield a result, which coincides with the application of the infinite loop operator. Finally, we discuss the special situation of loops for single-valued problems and for problems on Turing degrees.

Scott topologies on meet-continuous domains

We study Scott products and sobriety of countable meet-continuous domains, meaning meet-continuous dcpos without any additional continuity or least-element assumption. Using the complete-lattice test-family theorem of Xu and Ji, we prove finite-product equality for those domains that are $L$-dcpos, and for the weaker class whose principal ideals have suprema of all nonempty subsets. For an arbitrary family of nonempty countable meet-continuous $L$-dcpos, we prove that the Scott topology on the order product equals the product of the factor Scott topologies if and only if only finitely many factors lack a least element. We also establish sobriety under bounded completeness and under additional common-upper-bound conditions. Assuming square-product equality, sobriety is characterized by Scott closedness of common-upper-bound sections associated with irreducible Scott-closed sets, with an equivalent sequential formulation in the countable case. Two extraction lemmas extend to meet-semilattice dcpos. The finite-product and sobriety questions for general countable meet-continuous domains remain unresolved here.

Randomized Borel $(2d+1)$-coloring of digraphs

Let $G$ be a Borel digraph with maximum out-degree $d \in \mathbb{N}$. We show that $G$ admits a random Borel $(2d+1)$-coloring for which every edge is almost surely not monochromatic. This gives a simpler proof of a recent result of Pelayo-Gómez: such a graph $G$ admits a measurable proper $(2d+1)$-coloring with respect to any Borel probability measure on $V(G)$. Our proof is an adaptation of Pelayo-Gómez's proof to the randomized Borel setting.
