Strong Fubini properties of ideals
Volume 159 / 1999
Abstract
Let I and J be σ-ideals on Polish spaces X and Y, respectively. We say that the pair ⟨I,J⟩ has the Strong Fubini Property (SFP) if for every set D ⊆ X× Y with measurable sections, if all its sections $D_x = {y: ⟨x,y⟩ ∈ D}$ are in J, then the sections $D^y = {x: ⟨x,y⟩ ∈ D}$ are in I for every y outside a set from J (``measurable" means being a member of the σ-algebra of Borel sets modulo sets from the respective σ-ideal). We study the question of which pairs of σ-ideals have the Strong Fubini Property. Since CH excludes this phenomenon completely, sufficient conditions for SFP are always independent of ZFC. We show, in particular, that: • if there exists a Lusin set of cardinality the continuum and every set of reals of cardinality the continuum contains a one-to-one Borel image of a non-meager set, then ⟨MGR(X), J⟩ has SFP for every J generated by a hereditary $п^1_1$ (in the Effros Borel structure) family of closed subsets of Y (MGR(X) is the σ-ideal of all meager subsets of X), • if there exists a Sierpiński set of cardinality the continuum and every set of reals of cardinality the continuum contains a one-to-one Borel image of a set of positive outer Lebesgue measure, then $⟨NULL_μ, J⟩$ has SFP if either $J= NULL_ν$ or J is generated by any of the following families of closed subsets of Y ($NULL_μ$ is the σ-ideal of all subsets of X having outer measure zero with respect to a Borel σ-finite continuous measure μ on X): (i) all compact sets, (ii) all closed sets in $NULL_ν$ for a Borel σ-finite continuous measure ν on Y, (iii) all closed subsets of a $п^1_1$ set A ⊆ Y.
