The complexity of orbits of computably enumerable sets

Abstract

The goal of this paper is to announce there is a single orbit of the c.e. sets with inclusion, $\varepsilon$, 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 $\varepsilon$ is $\omega_{1}^{CK}+1$; not all orbits are elementarily definable; there is no arithmetic description of all orbits of $\varepsilon$; for all finite $\alpha \geq$ 9, there is a properly $\Delta_{\alpha}^{0}$ orbit (from the proof).
