Abstract:

The goal of this paper is to show there is a single orbit of the c.e. sets with inclusion, $\mathcal {E}$, such that the question of membership in this orbit is $\Sigma ^1_1$-complete. This result and proof have a number of nice corollaries: the Scott rank of $\mathcal {E}$ is $\omega _1^{ {CK}}+1$; not all orbits are elementarily definable; there is no arithmetic description of all orbits of $\mathcal {E}$; for all finite $\alpha \geq 9$, there is a properly $\Delta ^0_\alpha$ orbit (from the proof).
