چکیده
This paper is an introduction to fuzzy set theory. It has several purposes. First, it tries to explain the emergence of fuzzy sets from an historical perspective. Looking back to the history of sciences, it seems that fuzzy sets were bound to appear at some point in the 20th century. Indeed, Zadeh's works have cristalized and popularized a concern that has appeared in the first half of the century, mainly in philosophical circles. Another purpose of the paper is to scan the basic definitions in the field, that are required for a proper reading of the rest of the volume, as well as the other volumes of the Handbooks of Fuzzy Sets Series. This Chapter also contains a discussion on operational semantics of the generally too abstract notion of membership function. Lastly, a survey of variants of fuzzy setsnotion of membership function. Lastly, a survey of variants of fuzzy sets and related matters is provided.

Basic notions and properties of ordered semihyperrings
In this paper, we introduce the concept of semihyperring $(R,+,cdot)$ together with a suitable partial order $le$. Moreover, we introduce and study hyperideals in ordered semihyperrings. Simple ordered semihyperrings are defined and its characterizations are obtained. Finally, we study some properties of quasi-simple and $B$-simple ordered semihyperrings.
متن کاملFOCAL POINT AND FOCAL K-PLANE
This paper deals with the basic notions of k-tautimmersions . These notions come from two special cases; that is, tight and taut immersions. Tight and taut based on high and distance functions respectively and their basic notions are normal bundle, endpoint map, focal point, critical normal. We generalize hight and distance functions to cylindrical function and define basic notions of k-taut ...

There are hypotheses in the history of human culture and civilization in which we can find undeniable similarities and commonalities among them, despite their vastly different cultural and historical contexts. For example, finding commonalities between the language of two artistic aesthetic hypotheses, Sufism and Surrealism, which are very different from each other in terms of context, time as ...
متن کامل$L$-Topological Spaces
By substituting the usual notion of open sets in a topological space $X$ with a suitable collection of maps from $X$ to a frame $L$, we introduce the notion of L-topological spaces. Then, we proceed to study the classical notions and properties of usual topological spaces to the newly defined mathematical notion. Our emphasis would be concentrated on the well understood classical connectedness...

Glancing through the contemporary architecture of Iran and its different generations during the Pahlavi era, it seems that there have been notions and ideas regarding the architecture which can be considered as a specific current in the architecture of Iran based on different elements of architecture criticism; then the aim of this study is to scrutinize those notions and ideas and their transf...
متن کاملRotation number and its properties for iterated function and non-autonomous systems
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the rotation number for non-autonomous and iterated function systems. First, we define iterated function systems and the lift of these types of systems on the unit circle. In the following, we define the rotation number and investigate the conditions of existence and uniqueness of this number for our systems. Then, the notions rotational entropy an...
