Let (X,τ) be a countable topological space. We say that τ is an analytic (resp. Borel) topology if τ as a subset of the Cantor set 2 X (via characteristic functions) is an analytic (resp. Borel) set. For example, the topology of the Arkhangel’skiĭ-Franklin space S ω is F σ δ . In this paper we study the complexity, in the sense of the Borel hierarchy, of subspaces of S ω . We show that S ω has subspaces with topologies of arbitrarily high Borel rank and it also has subspaces with a non-Borel topology. Moreover, a closed subset of S ω has this property iff it contains a copy of S ω .
