Abstract:

It is shown that perfect open multivalued maps preserve $\mathcal {Z}$-analytic sets (which include compact zero sets) as well as other objects of descriptive set theory. The concept of “distinguishability", introduced by Frolík, is applied to multivalued maps, yielding a new class of such maps with similar preservation properties. That the projection of a compact zero set is a zero set is one corollary, and another is a generalized ${\mathcal {G}_\delta }$ diagonal metrization theorem.
