| Description: Cantor's theorem fails for the universal class (which is not a set but a proper class by nvelv 2703). Specifically, the identity function maps the universe onto its power class. Compare canth 3892 that works for sets. See also the remark in ru 1928 about NF, in which Cantor's theorem fails for sets that are "too large." This theorem gives some intuition behind that failure: in NF the universal class is a set, and it equals its own power set. |
