We provide a proof that analytic almost disjoint families of infinite sets of integers cannot be maximal using a result of Bourgain about compact sets of Baire class one functions. Inspired by this and related ideas, we then provide a new proof of that there are no maximal almost disjoint families in Solovays model. We then use the ideas behind this proof to provide an extension of a dichotomy result by Rosenthal and by Bourgain, Fremlin and Talagrand to general pointwise bounded functions in Solovays model. We then show that the same conclusions can be drawn about the model obtained when we add a generic selective ultrafilter to the Solovay model.
Let $K$ be a compact metric space. A real-valued function on $K$ is said to be of Baire class one (Baire-1) if it is the pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. In this paper, we study two well known ordinal indices of Baire-1 function
Soare proved that the maximal sets form an orbit in $mathcal{E}$. We consider here $mathcal{D}$-maximal sets, generalizations of maximal sets introduced by Herrmann and Kummer. Some orbits of $mathcal{D}$-maximal sets are well understood, e.g., hemim
The theory of ordinal ranks on Baire class 1 functions developed by Kechris and Loveau was recently extended by Elekes, Kiss and Vidny{a}nszky to Baire class $xi$ functions for any countable ordinal $xigeq1$. In this paper, we answer two of the quest
In set theory without the Axiom of Choice (AC), we observe new relations of the following statements with weak choice principles. 1. Every locally finite connected graph has a maximal independent set. 2. Every locally countable connected graph has a
The Omitting Types Theorem in model theory and the Baire Category Theorem in topology are known to be closely linked. We examine the precise relation between these two theorems. Working with a general notion of logic we show that the classical Omitti
