Set of all sets those are equipotent to a given set?

469 Views Asked by At

Two sets are said to be 'equipotent' if there is a bijection between them. For a given set $A,$ consider the class $\Bbb{A}$ of all sets those are equipotent with $A.$ Is $\Bbb{A}$ form a set?

My answer is "No" unless $A=\emptyset.$ In order to prove this, my idea is to use the fact that class of all singleton sets is not a set.

1) Is my conclusion correct?
2) Is there any better (direct) way to prove this?

Your conclusion is right.

There are several ways to prove it, and I'm not entirely sure which one you have in mind based on your idea, but here's a hint that follows that idea: what is the cardinality of $\{x\}\times A$, for any set $x$?
