The cardinal characteristic for relative -sets

Abstract: For

X

a separable metric space define

p p (X)

to be the smallest cardinality of a subset

Z

of

X

which is not a relative

g a

-set in

X

, i.e., there exists an

o m

-cover of

X

with no

g a

-subcover of

Z

. We give a characterization of

p p (2^{o} m)

and

p p (o m^{o} m)

in terms of definable free filters on

o m

which is related to the psuedointersection number

p p

. We show that for every uncountable standard analytic space

X

that either

p p (X) = p p (2^{o} m)

or

p p (X) = p p (o m^{o} m)

. We show that both of following statements are each relatively consistent with ZFC: (a)

p p = p p (o m^{o} m) < p p (2^{o} m)

and (b)

p p < p p (o m^{o} m) = p p (2^{o} m)
