Abstract
An ω‐language is a set of infinite sequences (words) on a countable language, and corresponds to a set of real numbers in a natural way. Languages may be described by logical formulas in the arithmetical hierarchy and also may be described as the set of words accepted by some type of automata or Turing machine. Certain families of languages, such as the $ \Sigma ^0 _2 $ languages, may enumerated as P~0~, P~1~, … and then an index set associated to a given property R (such as finiteness) of languages is just the set of e such that P~e~ has the property. The complexity of index sets for 7 types of languages is determined for various properties related to the size of the language.

## Abstract Index sets are used to measure the complexity of properties associated with the differentiability of real functions and the existence of solutions to certain classic differential equations. The new notion of a locally computable real function is introduced and provides several examples
## Abstract In the present paper we concentrate on fundamental problems concerning ω‐operations over partial enumerated sets. The notion of “HOM‐lifts” seems to be an adequate tool for this kind of investigations. MSC: 03D45, 18A30.
