Algebraic sums of sets in Marczewski-Burstin algebras.

Abstract

Using almost-invariant sets, we show that a family of Marczewski--Burstin algebras over groups are not closed under algebraic sums. We also give an application of almost-invariant sets to the difference property in the sense of de~Bruijn. In particular, we show that if $G$ is a perfect Abelian Polish group then there exists a Marczewski null set $A \subseteq G$ such that $A+A$ is not Marczewski measurable, and we show that the family of Marczewski measurable real valued functions defined on $G$ does not have the difference property.
