We show that, for 1 ≤ p < q < ∞, the relation of `p-equivalence between infinite sequences of real numbers is Borel reducible to the relation of `q-equivalence (i.e., the Borel cardinality of the quotient RN/`p is no larger than that of RN/`q), but not vice versa. The Borel reduction is constructed using variants of the triadic Koch snowflake curve; the nonreducibility in the other direction is proved by taking a putative Borel reduction, refining it to a reduction map that is not only continuous but ‘modular,’ and using this nicer map to derive a contradiction.
