Abstract:
A pathway is defined as an increasing sequence of subsets of $^\omega \omega$ which satisfy certain closure and boundedness properties. The existence of a pathway is shown to imply the existence of a P-point in $\beta N\backslash N$. Pathways are shown to exist in any random extension of a model of ${\text {ZFC}} + {\text {CH}}$.References
