All spaces considered here are metrizable. k will always denote an infinite cardinal. The successor of k will be denoted by k+.

Of particular interest will be the Baire spaces where each Tn is a discrete space of cardinal k. The product topology on B(k) is the same as the topology given by the (complete) “first-difference” metric, p : p(s, t) = 1/n if Si = ti for 1 ≦ in —1 and sn = tn. A great deal of information about these spaces can be found in [4].

A subset A of X is called k-analytic (in X) if there exist, for each tB(k), closed subsets F(t1), …, F(t1, …, tn), … of X such that
