| Description: Cantor's theorem fails for the universal class (which is not a set but a proper class by vprc 2787). Specifically, the identity function maps the universe onto its power class. Compare canth 4205 that works for sets. See also the remark in ru 1984 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. |
