Polish spaces of Banach spaces. Complexity of isometry and isomorphism classes

Abstract: We study the complexities of isometry and isomorphism classes of separable Banach spaces in the Polish spaces of Banach spaces recently introduced and investigated by the authors in [14]. We obtain sharp results concerning the most classical separable Banach spaces. We prove that the infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space is characterized as the unique separable infinite-dimensional Banach space whose isometry class is closed, and also as the unique separable infinite-dimensional Banach space whose isomorphism class is $F_\sigma$. For $p\in\left[1,2\right)\cup\left(2,\infty\right)$, we show that the isometry classes of $L_p[0,1]$ and $\ell_p$ are $G_\delta$-complete sets and $F_{\sigma\delta}$-complete sets, respectively. Then we show that the isometry class of $c_0$ is an $F_{\sigma\delta}$-complete set. Additionally, we compute the complexities of many other natural classes of separable Banach spaces; for instance, the class of separable $\mathcal{L}{p,\lambda+}$-spaces, for $p,\lambda\geq 1$, is shown to be a $G\delta$-set, the class of superreflexive spaces is shown to be an $F_{\sigma\delta}$-set, and the class of spaces with local $\Pi$-basis structure is shown to be a $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}^0_6$-set. The paper is concluded with many open problems and suggestions for a future research.
