Objects have sorts , with membership allowed only from sort to sort . A set predicate distinguishes sets from atoms; atoms have no members, extensionality applies to sets, and every well-typed formula defines a set in the next sort by comprehension. First-order models may have only a specified collection of subsets, as in Henkin semantics. For a full finite-type model, take at widely separated increasing ranks, represent sets at level by , and treat the remaining objects as atoms under typed membership.
