The variety generated by the truth value algebra of type-2 fuzzy sets

چکیده
This paper addresses some questions about the variety generated by the algebra of truth values of type-2 fuzzy sets. Its principal result is that this variety is generated by a nite algebra, and in particular is locally nite. This provides an algorithm for determining when an equation holds in this variety. It also sheds light on the question of determining an equational axiomatization of this variety, although this problem remains open.

A kind of fuzzy upper topology on L-preordered sets
Considering a commutative unital quantale L as the truth value table and using the tool of L-generalized convergence structures of stratified L-filters, this paper introduces a kind of fuzzy upper topology, called fuzzy S-upper topology, on L-preordered sets. It is shown that every fuzzy join-preserving L-subset is open in this topology. When L is a complete Heyting algebra, for every completel...
متن کاملAutomorphisms of the Algebra of Fuzzy Truth Values
This paper is an investigation of the automorphisms of the algebra of truth values of type-2 fuzzy sets. This algebra contains isomorphic copies of the truth value algebras of type-1 and of interval-valued fuzzy sets. It is shown that these subalgebras are characteristic; that is, are carried onto themselves by automorphisms of the containing algebra of truth values of fuzzy sets. Some other re...
متن کاملPOWERSET OPERATOR FOUNDATIONS FOR CATALG FUZZY SET THEORIES
The paper sets forth in detail categorically-algebraic or catalg foundations for the operations of taking the image and preimage of (fuzzy) sets called forward and backward powerset operators. Motivated by an open question of S. E. Rodabaugh, we construct a monad on the category of sets, the algebras of which generate the fixed-basis forward powerset operator of L. A. Zadeh. On the next step, w...
متن کاملThe Algebra of Truth Values of Type-2 Fuzzy Sets: A Survey
Type-2 fuzzy sets have come to play an increasingly important role in both applications and in the general theory of fuzzy sets. The basis of type-2 fuzzy sets is a certain algebra of truth values, as set forth by Zadeh. This paper is a survey of results about this algebra, along with some new material.
متن کاملPartial Orders on Fuzzy Truth Value Algebras
The elements of the truth value algebra of type-2 fuzzy sets consist of all mappings of the unit interval into itself, with operations given by various convolutions of the pointwise operations. This algebra can be specialized and generalized in various interesting ways. First, we consider the more general case of all mappings of a bounded chain with an involution into a complete chain, and deli...
