Abstract: Under CH we prove that for any tall ideal calI on omega and for any ordinal gammaleqomega1 there is an calI-ultrafilter (in the sense of Baumgartner), which belongs to the class calPgamma of P-hierarchy of ultrafilters. Since the class of calP2 ultrafilters coincides with a class of P-points, out result generalize theorem of Flav{s}kov'a, which states that there are calI-ultrafilters which are not P-points.


It is shown that if the continuum hypothesis is assumed, then for any tall P-ideal \(I\) on \(\omega\) containing all singletons, and any ordinal \(\gamma\) with \(2 \leq \gamma \leq \omega_1\), there are two Rudin-Keisler incomparable ultrafilters \(U_1\) and \(U_2\) on \(\omega\) such that for \(j = 1, 2\), (a) \(U_j\) is an \(I\)-ultrafilter (meaning that for each function \(f : \omega \rightarrow \omega\), there is \(A \in U_j\) with \(f [A]\) in \(I\)), and (b) \(U_j\) belongs to the class \({\mathcal P}_\gamma\) in the P-hierarchy of ultrafilters.
