§1. In [2], as part of an analogy between the concepts of recursive emimerability and regressiveness, Dekker showed that the intersection of any two regressive sets which are recursively equivalent is a regressive set. In [1], McLaughlin and the author showed that the intersection of two regressive sets, if infinite, has an infinite regressive subset. However, the following theorem shows that the analogy is not complete in this instance.

Theorem. There exist two regressive sets whose intersection is not regressive.
