Is there a simple proof that proves $C^1[0, 1]$ is $\Sigma^1_1$ in $C[0, 1]$?

In his book, "Descriptive Set Theory", Moschovakis states $C^1[0, 1]$ is $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}^1_1$ in $C[0, 1]$ in the exercise 1E.8. Here, $C[0, 1]$ is the space (metrized by the sup norm) of ...

Examples of Baire Class $\xi+1$ but not $\xi$ functions for each countable ordinal $\xi.$

We say that $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is of Baire Class $1$ if it is a pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. One can generalize the definition above by taking pointwise limit of ...

Partition $\Bbb{R}$ into a family of sets each one homeomorphic to the Cantor set

It is known that there is no (nontrivial) partition of $\Bbb{R}$ into a countable number of closed set. But is there a partition of $\Bbb{R}$ into sets, each one homeomorphic to the cantor ternary set?...
