Abstract: We use Borel determinacy to prove a theorem about partitions
of the space $\omega^{G}$ when $G$ is a countable free product of groups. We
will then discuss a variety of applications, time permitting, to Borel
graph colorings, structure theorems for Borel complete sections,
ergodicity theorems for countable Borel equivalence relations, and
recursion theory.
