AB - We introduce the notion of a coherent $P$-ultrafilter on a complete ccc Boolean algebra, strengthening the notion of a $P$-point on $\omega $, and show that these ultrafilters exist generically under $\mathfrak {c} = \mathfrak {d}$. This improves the known existence result of Ketonen [On the existence of $P$-points in the Stone-Čech compactification of integers, Fund. Math. 92 (1976), 91–94]. Similarly, the existence theorem of Canjar [On the generic existence of special ultrafilters, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 110 (1990), no. 1, 233–241] can be extended to show that coherently selective ultrafilters exist generically under $\mathfrak {c} = \operatorname{cov}\mathcal {M}$. We use these ultrafilters in a topological application: a coherent $P$-ultrafilter on an algebra $\mathcal {B}$ is an untouchable point in the Stone space of $\mathcal {B}$, witnessing its nonhomogeneity.
