Abstract: | We show how to represent a paradox similar to Russell's paradox in Type Theory withW-types and a type of all types, and how to use this in order to represent a fixed-point operator in such a theory. It is still open whether such a construction is possible without theW-type.This research was partly supported by ESPIRIT Basic Research Action Logical Frameworks. |
