A syntactic approach to Borel functions: Some extensions of Louveau's theorem.

Louveau showed that if a Borel set in a Polish space happens to be in a Borel Wadge class $\Gamma$, then its $\Gamma$-code can be obtained from its Borel code in a hyperarithmetical manner. We extend Louveau's theorem to Borel functions: If a Borel function on a Polish space happens to be a $\Sigma_t$-function, then one can effectively find its $\Sigma_t$-code hyperarithmetically relative to its Borel code. More generally, we prove extension-type, domination-type, and decomposition-type variants of Louveau's theorem for Borel functions.
