On Homomorphism Graphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce a new type of examples of bounded degree acyclic Borel graphs and study their combinatorial properties in the context of descriptive combinatorics, using a generalization of the determinacy method of Marks. The motivation for the construction comes from the adaptation of this method to the LOCAL model of distributed computing. Our approach unifies the previous results in the area, as well as produces new ones. In particular, we show that for Delta>2 it is impossible to give a simple characterization of acyclic Delta-regular Borel graphs with Borel chromatic number at most Delta: such graphs form a mathbfSigma21-complete set. This implies a strong failure of Brooks'-like theorems in the Borel context.
