Abstract
AbstractA family $$\mathcal {I}$$
I
of subsets of a set X is an ideal on X if it is closed under taking subsets and finite unions of its elements. An ideal $$\mathcal {I}$$
I
on X is below an ideal $$\mathcal {J}$$
J
on Y in the Katětov order if there is a function $$f{: }Y\rightarrow X$$
f
:

such that $$f^{-1}[A]\in \mathcal {J}$$

. We show that the Hindman ideal, the Ramsey ideal and the summable ideal are pairwise incomparable in the Katětov order, where
The Ramsey ideal consists of those sets of pairs of natural numbers which do not contain a set of all pairs of any infinite set (equivalently do not contain, in a sense, any infinite complete subgraph),
The Hindman ideal consists of those sets of natural numbers which do not contain any infinite set together with all finite sums of its members (equivalently do not contain IP-sets that are considered in Ergodic Ramsey theory),
The summable ideal consists of those sets of natural numbers such that the series of the reciprocals of its members is convergent.
