Conservativity of ultrafilters with the P-point and Ramsey properties
Let be one of
An ultrafilter is a -point if, for every partition with for every , there is an such that is finite for every . It is Ramsey if under the same hypothesis there is an such that for every . P-point and Ramsey ultrafilter conservativity conjecture. For each such , both
and
are conservative over . These claims concern whether adding ultrafilters with set-theoretic properties whose existence is independent of ZFC produces no new consequences over the listed reverse-mathematical base theories. The source only says that the forcing construction may adapt to these properties and supplies no proof or counterexample.
