Abstract: By classical results of Hurewicz, Kechris and Saint-Raymond, an analytic subset of a Polish space X is covered by a Ksigma subset of X if and only if it does not contain a closed-in-X subset homeomorphic to the Baire space omegaomega. We consider the analogous statement (which we call Hurewicz dichotomy) for Sigma11 subsets of the generalized Baire space kappakappa for a given uncountable cardinal kappa with kappa=kappa<kappa, and show how to force it to be true in a cardinal and cofinality preserving extension of the ground model. Moreover, we show that if the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis (GCH) holds, then there is a cardinal preserving class-forcing extension in which the Hurewicz dichotomy for Sigma11 subsets of kappakappa holds at all uncountable regular cardinals kappa, while strongly unfoldable and supercompact cardinals are preserved. On the other hand, in the constructible universe L the dichotomy for Sigma11 sets fails at all uncountable regular cardinals, and the same happens in any generic extension obtained by adding a Cohen real to a model of GCH. We also discuss connections with some regularity properties, like the kappa-perfect set property, the kappa-Miller measurability, and the kappa-Sacks measurability.
