Special subsets of the generalized Cantor space and generalized Baire space

Abstract

In this paper, we are interested in parallels to the classical notions of special subsets in R defined in the generalized Cantor and Baire spaces (2 κ and κ κ). We consider generalizations of the well-known classes of special subsets, like Lusin sets, strongly null sets, concentrated sets, perfectly meagre sets, σ-sets, γ-sets, sets with the Menger, the Rothberger, or the Hurewicz property, but also of some less-know classes like X-small sets, meagre additive sets, Ramsey null sets, Marczewski, Silver, Miller, and Laver-null sets. We notice that many classical theorems regarding these classes can be relatively easy generalized to higher cardinals although sometimes with some additional assumptions. This paper serves as a catalogue of such results along with some other generalizations and open problems.
