Extract

When Souslin and Lusin initiated and developed the theories of the Souslin operation, of projective sets and of analytic sets, they attached great importance to the constructive nature of their definitions (see [1], [2] and [3]). When Choquet (see [4], [5] and [6]) made his very successful extension of these theories to an arbitrary Hausdorff space Ω, he defined an analytic set in Ω to be a continuous image in Ω of a Kσδ-set in an unspecified compact Hausdorff space X. Thus, a priori, the construction of the analytic sets in Ω requires the preliminary construction of all compact Hausdorff spaces X.
