Type-shifting automorphism
ID: type-shifting-automorphism
For an integer-indexed typed model, a type-shifting automorphism is a bijection from each type to the next preserving equality, adjacent-type membership and the set predicates. On type zero define by . Stratified formulas are translated by sending a variable of type to . Typed comprehension then gives the untyped comprehension of NFU. Such an automorphism is external; formulas containing it are not included in the typed comprehension scheme.
