Definition df-tsk

Description: The class of all Tarski classes. Tarski classes is a phrase coined by Grzegorz Bancerek in his articleTarski's Classes and Ranks, Journal of Formalized Mathematics, Vol 1, No 3, May-August 1990. A Tarski class is a set whose existence is ensured by Tarski's axiom A (see ax-groth and the equivalent axioms). Axiom A was first presented in Tarski's articleUeber unerreichbare Kardinalzahlen. Tarski introduced the axiom A to enable ZFC to manage inaccessible cardinals. Later Grothendieck introduced the concept of Grothendieck universes and showed they were equal to transitive Tarski classes. (Contributed by FL, 30-Dec-2010)
