Superstructures on Set Theory
We will discuss a number of ways to put a "superstructure" over the
usual set theory ZFC. These will include von Neumann-G\"odel-Bernays
(predicative) class theory, Kelley-Morse (impredicative) class theory,
the set theory of Ackermann with sets and classes and powerful
extensions of Jensen's NFU (New Foundations with urelements) which may
not seem at first glance to be superstructures on ZFC. Positive set
theory may also be discussed, if time permits. The idea of viewing
set theories with universal set such as NFU or positive set theory as
alternative superstructures to the usual theory of classes has been
discussed earlier by Roland Hinnion. It has been a motivating concept
behind our development of a sequence of strong extensions of NFU.
