Pathology of submeasures and F_\sigma ideals

Abstract: We address some phenomena about the interaction between lower semicontinuous submeasures on

m a t h b b N

and

F_{s i g m a}

ideals. We analyze the pathology degree of a submeasure and present a method to construct pathological

F_{s} i g m a

ideals. We give a partial answers to the question of whether every nonpathological tall

F_{s} i g m a

ideal is Katv{e}tov above the random ideal or at least has a Borel selector. Finally, we show a representation of nonpathological

F_{s} i g m a

ideals using sequences in Banach spaces.
