Abstract
In a 1965 paper, E.G. Effros asked the question if the conjugacy relation for unitary representations of a locally compact second countable group is a Borel equivalence relation. In this paper, we answer this question affirmatively. This also settles a recent question raised by A.S. Kechris regarding the hierarchy complexity of unitary equivalence of probability measure preserving actions of countable discrete groups.
