We consider countable linear orders and study the quasi-order of convex embeddability and its induced equivalence relation. We obtain both combinatorial and descriptive set-theoretic results, and further extend our research to the case of circular orders.

Abstract
We consider countable linear orders and study the quasi-order of convex embeddability and its induced equivalence relation. We obtain both combinatorial and descriptive set-theoretic results, and further extend our research to the case of circular orders. These results are then applied to the study of arcs and knots, establishing combinatorial properties and lower bounds (in terms of Borel reducibility) for the complexity of some natural relations between these geometrical objects.File in questo prodotto:
