Un crible généralisé (
Descriptive set theory)
Given a Borel set $A$ in the product $E\times F$ of two compact metric sets, the set of all $x\in E$ such that the section $A(x)\subset Y$ is of second category is analytic

Une démonstration du théorème de Souslin-Lusin (

The basic fact that the image of a Borel set under an injective Borel mapping is Borel is deduced from a separation theorem concerning countably many disjoint analytic sets

Une remarque sur les espaces sousliniens de Bourbaki (
Descriptive set theory)
The paper claims to prove that given any space with a Souslin topology i.e., which is Hausdorff and a continuous image of a Polish space, it is possible to strengthen the topology so that it becomes metrizable without losing the Souslin property. The author discovered later a serious mistake in his proof
Comment: The problem is still open, and interesting

Démonstration élémentaire d'un théorème de Novikov (
Descriptive set theory)
Novikov's theorem asserts that any sequence of analytic subsets of a compact metric space with empty intersection can be enclosed in a sequence of Borel sets with empty intersection. This result has important consequences in descriptive set theory (see Dellacherie
915). A fairly simple proof of this theorem is given, which relates it to the first separation theorem (rather than the second separation theorem as it used to be)
Comment: Dellacherie in this volume (
1032) further simplifies the proof. For a presentation in book form, see Dellacherie-Meyer,

Compléments aux exposés sur les ensembles analytiques (
Descriptive set theory)
A new proof of Novikov's theorem (see
1028 and the corresponding comments) is given in the form of a Choquet theorem for multicapacities (with infinitely many arguments). Another (unrelated) result is a complement to
919 and
920, which study the space of stopping times. The language of stopping times is used to prove a deep section theorem due to Kondo

Théorie unifiée des capacités et des ensembles analytiques (
Descriptive set theory)
A Choquet capacity takes one set as argument and produces a number. Along the years, one has considered multicapacities (which take as arguments finitely many sets) and capacitary operators (which produce sets instead of numbers). The essential result of this paper is that, if one allows functions of infinitely many arguments which produce sets, then the corresponding ``Choquet theorem'' gives all the classical results at a time, without need of an independent theory of analytic sets

Quelques exemples familiers, en probabilités, d'ensembles analytiques non boréliens (
Descriptive set theory,
General theory of processes)
There is a tendency to consider that the naive, healthy probabilist should keep away from unnecessary abstraction, and in particular from analytic sets which are not Borel. This paper shows that such sets crop into probability theory in the most natural way. For instance, while the sample space of right-continuous paths with left limits is Borel, that of right-continuous paths without restriction on the left is coanalytic and non-Borel. Also, on the Borel sample space of right-continuous paths with left limits, the hitting time of a closed set is a function which is coanalytic and non-Borel
