Antibasis theorems for ${\Pi^0_1}$ classes and the jump hierarchy

Abstract

We prove two antibasis theorems for ${\Pi^0_1}$ classes. The first is a jump inversion theorem for ${\Pi^0_1}$ classes with respect to the global structure of the Turing degrees. For any ${P\subseteq 2^\omega}$, define S(P), the degree spectrum of P, to be the set of all Turing degrees a such that there exists ${A \in P}$ of degree a. For any degree ${{\bf a \geq 0'}}$, let ${\textrm{Jump}^{-1}({\bf a) = \{b : b' = a \}}}$ . We prove that, for any ${{\bf a \geq 0'}}$ and any ${\Pi^0_1}$ class P, if ${\textrm{Jump}^{-1} ({\bf a}) \subseteq S(P)}$ then P contains a member of every degree. For any degree ${{\bf a \geq 0'}}$ such that a is recursively enumerable (r.e.) in 0', let ${Jump_{\bf \leq 0'} ^{-1}({\bf a)=\{b : b \leq 0' \textrm{and} b' = a \}}}$ . The second theorem concerns the degrees below 0'. We prove that for any ${{\bf a\geq 0'}}$ which is recursively enumerable in 0' and any ${\Pi^0_1}$ class P, if ${\textrm{Jump}_{\bf \leq 0'} ^{-1}({\bf a)} \subseteq S(P)}$ then P contains a member of every degree.
