چکیده

Closure is a fundamental property of many discrete systems. Transitive closure in relations has been well studied, e.g. 1,14,6,5], as has geometric closure 8,9] and closure in various kinds of graphs 17,10]. The closed sets of a closure operator illustrate a kind of well-behaved internal structure that is the main theme of this paper. In Section 1, we examine antimatroid closure spaces. In Section 2, we consider a closure operator that has been widely used in digital image processing 25]. This operator, which can be equally well deened on graphs, is not antimatroid; but it is shown in Section 3 that it retains many of the same structural properties, and is closely related to the classic graph-theoretic theme of domination. Finally, in Section 4, we relate these concepts to premise systemm30].

CHARACTERIZATION OF L-FUZZIFYING MATROIDS BY L-FUZZIFYING CLOSURE OPERATORS

An L-fuzzifying matroid is a pair (E, I), where I is a map from2E to L satisfying three axioms. In this paper, the notion of closure operatorsin matroid theory is generalized to an L-fuzzy setting and called L-fuzzifyingclosure operators. It is proved that there exists a one-to-one correspondencebetween L-fuzzifying matroids and their L-fuzzifying closure operators.

From torsion theories to closure operators and factorization systems

Torsion theories are here extended to categories equipped with an ideal of 'null morphisms', or equivalently a full subcategory of 'null objects'. Instances of this extension include closure operators viewed as generalised torsion theories in a 'category of pairs', and factorization systems viewed as torsion theories in a category of morphisms. The first point has essentially been treated in [15].

ON (L;M)-FUZZY CLOSURE SPACES

The aim of this paper is to introduce $(L,M)$-fuzzy closurestructure where $L$ and $M$ are strictly two-sided, commutativequantales. Firstly, we define $(L,M)$-fuzzy closure spaces and getsome relations between $(L,M)$-double fuzzy topological spaces and$(L,M)$-fuzzy closure spaces. Then, we introduce initial$(L,M)$-fuzzy closure structures and we prove that the category$(L,M)$-{bf FC} of $(L,M...

Categories of lattice-valued closure (interior) operators and Alexandroff L-fuzzy topologies

Galois connection in category theory play an important role inestablish the relationships between different spatial structures. Inthis paper, we prove that there exist many interesting Galoisconnections between the category of Alexandroff $L$-fuzzytopological spaces, the category of reflexive $L$-fuzzyapproximation spaces and the category of Alexandroff $L$-fuzzyinterior (closure) spaces. This ...

M-FUZZIFYING MATROIDS INDUCED BY M-FUZZIFYING CLOSURE OPERATORS

In this paper, the notion of closure operators of matroids  is generalized to fuzzy setting  which is called $M$-fuzzifying closure operators, and some properties of $M$-fuzzifying closure operators are discussed. The $M$-fuzzifying matroid induced by an $M$-fuzzifying closure operator can induce an $M$-fuzzifying closure operator. Finally, the characterizations of $M$-fuzzifying acyclic matroi...

P-CLOSURE IN PSEUDO BCI-ALGEBRAS

In this paper, for any non-empty subset C of a pseudo BCI-algebra X, the concept of p-closure of C, denoted by C(pc), is introduced and some related properties are investigated. Applying this concept, a characterization of the minimal elements of X is given. It is proved that C(pc) is the least closed pseudo BCI-ideal of X containing C and K(X) for any ideal C of X...
