Under MA we prove that for the ideal $\cal I$ of thin sets on $\omega$ and for any ordinal $\gamma \leq \omega_1$ there is an ${\cal I}$-ultrafilter (in the sense of Baumgartner), which belongs to the class ${\cal P}_{\gamma}$ of…

Following Baumgartner [J. Symb. Log. 60 (1995), no. 2], for an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\omega$, we say that an ultrafilter $\mathcal{U}$ on $\omega$ is an $\mathcal{I}$-ultrafilter if for every function $f:\omega\to\omega$ there is $A\in…

We introduce $\textit{Laver ultrafilters}$, namely ultrafilters $\mathcal{U}$ for which the associated Laver forcing $\mathbb{L}_{\mathcal{U}}$ has the Laver property. We give simple combinatorial characterisations of these ultrafilters,…

A variety of classes of naturally arising ultrafilters on omega is discussed, and the question is raised whether it is consistent that the classes are empty. Since all the classes contain the P-point ultrafilters, a negative answer would…

All ultrafilters under consideration here are non-principal ultrafilters on the set omega of natural numbers. We are concerned with the possible cofinalities of ultrapowers of omega with respect to such ultrafilters. We show that no…

Generalizing Keisler's notion of regularity for ultrafilters, Taylor introduced degrees of regularity for ideals and showed that a countably complete nonregular ideal on $\omega_1$ must be somewhere $\omega_1$-dense. We prove a dichotomy…

We study ultrafilters on $\omega^2$ produced by forcing with the quotient of $\scr P(\omega^2)$ by the Fubini square of the Fr\'echet filter on $\omega$. We show that such an ultrafilter is a weak P-point but not a P-point and that the only…

We introduce the notion of a coherent $P$-ultrafilter on a complete ccc Boolean algebra, strenghtening the notion of a $P$-point on $\omega$, and show that these ultrafilters exist generically under ${\mathfrak c} = {\mathfrak d}$. This…

We are interested in generalizing part of the theory of ultrafilters on omega to larger cardinals. Here we set the scene for further investigations introducing properties of ultrafilters in strong sense dual to being normal.

An earlier paper, entitled "P-hierarchy on $\beta\omega$", investigated the relations between ordinal ultrafilters and the so-called P-hierarchy. This study is continued in the present paper and focuses on the aspects of characterization of…

A simple \(P_\lambda\)-point on a regular cardinal \(\kappa\) is a uniform ultrafilter on \(\kappa\) with a mod-bounded decreasing generating sequence of length \(\lambda\). We prove that if there is a simple $P_\lambda$-point ultrafilter…

We prove that \textsf{P}-points (even strong P-points) and Gruff ultrafilters exist in any forcing extension obtained by adding fewer than $\aleph_{\omega}% $-many random reals to a model of \textsf{CH. }These results improve and correct…

A set X which is a subset of the Cantor set has property (s) (Marczewski (Spzilrajn)) iff for every perfect set P there exists a perfect set Q contained in P such that Q is a subset of X or Q is disjoint from X. Suppose U is a nonprincipal…

We define a family of a (non-principal) ultrafilters on N which are, in a sense, far from P-points. We first under reasonable conditions, prove its existence. In a continuation we shall prove that such a point may exist while no P-point…

The ultrafilters on the partial order $([\omega]^{\omega},\subseteq^*)$ are the free ultrafilters on $\omega$, which constitute the space $\omega^*$, the Stone-Cech remainder of $\omega$. If $U$ is an upperset of this partial order (i.e., a…

We consider several variants of Baumgartner's axiom for $\aleph_1$-dense sets defined on the Baire and Cantor spaces in terms of Lipschitz functions with respect to the usual metric. A variation of Baumgartner's original argument shows that…

This note answers the following question: Is it consistent that for an arbitrary tall summable ideal I_g there exists an I_g-ultrafilter which is not rapid? We show that assuming Martin's Axiom for \sigma-centered posets such ultrafilters…

We show that in the $\mathbb{P}_{\max}$ extension of a certain Chang-type model of determinacy, if $\kappa\in\{\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3\}$, then the restriction of the club filter on $\kappa\cap\mathrm{Cof}(\omega)$ to HOD is an…

We introduce a new class of ultrafilters which generalizes the well-known class of simple $P$-point ultrafilters. We prove that for any well-founded $\sigma$-directed partial order $\mathbb{D}$ there is a mild forcing extension where there…

We give an exact value of the rank of an $\mathcal{F}$-Fubini sum of filters for the case where $\mathcal{F}$ is a Borel filter of rank $1$. We also consider $\mathcal{F}$-limits of filters $\mathcal{F}_i$, which are of the form…
