We systematically develop analogs of basic concepts from classical descriptive set theory in the context of pointless topology. Our starting point is to take the elements of the free complete Boolean algebra generated by the frame $\mathcal{O}(X)$ of opens to be the "$\infty$-Borel sets" in a locale $X$. We show that several known results in locale theory may be interpreted in this framework as direct analogs of classical descriptive set-theoretic facts, including e.g., the Lusin separation…

On the Pettis-Johnstone theorem for localic groups
We explain how Johnstone’s 1989 proof of the closed subgroup theorem for localic groups can be viewed as a point-free version of Pettis’s theorem for Baire topological groups. We then use it to

A universal characterization of standard Borel spaces
We prove that the category $\mathsf{SBor}$ of standard Borel spaces is the (bi-)initial object in the 2-category of countably complete Boolean (countably) extensive categories. This means that

Desc descriptive set theory is the study of the structure of definable sets and functions in separable completely metrizable spaces, usually called Polish spaces.
First steps in descriptive theory of locales
F. Hausdorff and D. Montgomery showed that a subspace of a completely metrizable space is developable if and only if it is F, and G. . This extends to arbitrary metrizable locales when "F," and "G."

We prove that any full subcategory of a locally finitely presentable (l.f.p.) category having small limits and filtered colimits preserved by the inclusion functor is itself l.f.p. Here "full" may be
