Apr 20, 2020 at 11:44 comment added Jiayi Liu Thanks for answering~ I didn't expect different $r$ would make a difference. Your construction gives a $Q$ for $r=2$ as following. Put $(X,Y)$ in $Q$ where $Y=(\emptyset,\emptyset), (\emptyset,\omega), (\omega,\emptyset)\in (2^\omega)^2$ depending on $f(X)=0,1,2$ respectively. Where $(\emptyset,\emptyset)$ denotes such $(Y_0,Y_1)\in (2^\omega)^2$ that $Y_0^{-1}(1)=Y_1^{-1}(1)=\emptyset$ (similarly for $(\emptyset,\omega), (\omega,\emptyset)$). So $Q$ could be $\Pi_1^1$ for $r=3$ by Jonathan's comment.

Apr 20, 2020 at 10:04 comment added Johannes Schürz Yes, you are absolutely right!! Thanks!
Apr 20, 2020 at 9:37 comment added Jonathan Schilhan My first comment was just a consistency result. In $L$ it is not hard to construct a $\Sigma^1_2$ ultrafilter. A $\Sigma^1_2$ set is the projection of a $\Pi^1_1$ set $A \subseteq 2^\omega \times 2^\omega$, so if $x \in \mathcal{U}$, then there is a witness $y$ so that $(x,y) \in A$.
Apr 20, 2020 at 9:31 comment added Jonathan Schilhan The formula $\forall Y \in \mathcal{B}(X \cap Y \neq \emptyset)$ is $\Pi^1_2$ since you need to say $\forall Y (Y \notin \mathcal{B} \vee X \cap Y \neq \emptyset)$.

Apr 19, 2020 at 19:13 comment added Johannes Schürz Concerning your first comment, I assume you mean taking a witness from a $\Pi_1^1$ ultrafilterbase in L? However, this $Q$ might not work in $V$ as condition (1) need not be absolute?!
Apr 19, 2020 at 18:46 comment added Johannes Schürz Concerning your second comment, I had the same idea, just wasn't 100% sure that an ultrafilter cannot be $\Pi_1^1$.... How does this relate to your $\Pi_1^1$ P-point base (in L)? Can't I just say $X \in \mathcal{U}$ iff $\forall Y \in \mathcal{B} \colon X \cap Y \neq \emptyset$?
Apr 19, 2020 at 18:38 comment added Jonathan Schilhan The $Q$ that you define will never be $\Pi^1_1$, since $x \in \mathcal{U}$ would become $\Pi^1_1$, but this is impossible for an ultrafilter.
Apr 19, 2020 at 18:33 comment added Jonathan Schilhan For $r=4$, it seems that you can get $Q$ to be $\Pi^1_1$. Let $\mathcal{U}$ be a $\Sigma^1_2$ ultrafilter (say in L). Then we take exactly the same $Q$ as you did, but simply add an additional coordinate to the $Y$ part for the witness that $f(X)=i$.
