Abstract: Motivated by Tukey classification problems and building on work in cite{Dobrinen/Todorcevic11}, we develop a new hierarchy of topological Ramsey spaces $mathcal{R}_{alpha}$, $alpha<omeg{a}_1$. These spaces form a natural hierarchy of complexity, $mathcal{R}_0$ being the Ellentuck space, and for each $alpha<omeg{a}_1$, $mathcal{R}_{alpha+1}$ coming immediately after $mathcal{R}_{alpha}$ in complexity. Associated with each $mathcal{R}_{alpha}$ is an ultrafilter $mathcal{U}_{alpha}$, which is Ramsey for $mathcal{R}_{alpha}$, and in particular, is a rapid p-point satisfying certain partition properties. We prove Ramsey-classification theorems for equivalence relations on fronts on $mathcal{R}_{alpha}$, $2lealpha<omeg{a}_1$. These are analogous to the Pudlak-Rodl Theorem canonizing equivalence relations on barriers on the Ellentuck space. We then apply our Ramsey-classification theorems to completely classify all Rudin-Keisler equivalence classes of ultrafilters which are Tukey reducible to $mathcal{U}_{alpha}$, for each $2lealpha<omeg{a}_1$: Every ultrafilter which is Tukey reducible to $mathcal{U}_{alpha}$ is isomorphic to a countable iteration of Fubini products of ultrafilters from among a fixed countable collection of rapid p-points. Moreover, we show that the Tukey types of nonprincipal ultrafilters Tukey reducible to $mathcal{U}_{alpha}$ form a descending chain of order type $alpha+1$.
