Abstract

The topological universe hull of a concrete c-category over Set is compared with the cartesian closed topological and extensionable topological hulls. It is shown that the topological universe hull can be obtained from the other two hulls by a two-step process, in which the order of formation of hulls cannot be reversed. This provides also a correction of an existing description of the topological universe hull.
