On equivalence relations induced by Polish groups

The motivation of this article is to introduce a kind of orbit equivalence relations which can well describe structures and properties of Polish groups from the perspective of Borel reducibility. Given a Polish group $G$, let $E(G)$ be the right coset equivalence relation $G^ω/c(G)$, where $c(G)$ is the group of all convergent sequences in $G$. Let $G$ be a Polish group. (1) $G$ is a discrete countable group containing at least two elements iff $E(G)\sim_BE_0$; (2) if $G$ is TSI uncountable non-archimedean, then $E(G)\sim_BE_0^ω$; (3) $G$ is non-archimedean iff $E(G)\le_B=^+$; (4) if $H$ is a CLI Polish group but $G$ is not, then $E(G)\not\le_BE(H)$; (5) if $H$ is a non-archimedean Polish group but $G$ is not, then $E(G)\not\le_BE(H)$. The notion of $α$-l.m.-unbalanced Polish group for $α<ω_1$ is introduced. Let $G,H$ be Polish groups, $0<α<ω_1$. If $G$ is $α$-l.m.-unbalanced but $H$ is not, then $E(G)\not\le_B E(H)$. For TSI Polish groups, the existence of Borel reduction is transformed into the existence of a well-behaved continuous mapping between topological groups. As its applications, for any Polish group $G$, let $G_0$ be the connected component of the identity element $1_G$. Let $G$ and $H$ be two separable TSI Lie groups. If $E(G)\le_BE(H)$, then there exists a continuous locally injective map $S:G_0\to H_0$. Moreover, if $G_0,H_0$ are abelian, $S$ is a group homomorphism. In particular, for $c_0,e_0,c_1,e_1\in{\mathbb N}$, $E({\mathbb R}^{c_0}\times{\mathbb T}^{e_0})\le_BE({\mathbb R}^{c_1}\times{\mathbb T}^{e_1})$ iff $e_0\le e_1$ and $c_0+e_0\le c_1+e_1$.
