Variants on the Berz sublinearity theorem
We consider variants on the classical Berz sublinearity theorem, using only DC, the Axiom of Dependent Choices, rather than AC, the Axiom of Choice, which Berz used. We consider thinned versions, in which conditions are imposed on only part of the domain of the function—results of quantifier-weakening type. There are connections with classical results on subadditivity. We close with a discussion of the extensive related literature

Set theory and the analyst
This survey is motivated by specific questions arising in the similarities and contrasts between (Baire) category and (Lebesgue) measure - category-measure duality and non-duality, as it were. The bulk of the text is devoted to a summary, intended for the working analyst, of the extensive background in set theory and logic needed to discuss such matters: to quote from the Preface of Kelley [Kel]: "what every young analyst should know"
