Abstract
AbstractAssuming either the continuum hypothesis or Martin's axiom, we show that in the space βN – N, there are: (a) points which are not P-points, but which are also not limit points of any countable set, and (b) a countable set of points dense in itself such that each of the points is not a limit point of any countable discrete set. Our method is to construct such points in the Stone space of a measure algebra, and then embed that Stone space into βN – N. We also, by a similar use of measures, establish the independence of the existence of selective ultrafilters by showing that there are none in the random real model.
