Measurement without Archmedean Axioms"
نویسنده
چکیده
Axiomatizations of measurement systems usually require an axiom--called an Archimedean axiom-that allows quantities to be compared. This type of axiom has a different form from the other measurement axioms, and cannot-except in the most trivial cases-be empirically verified. In this paper, representation theorems for extensive measurement structures without Archimedean axioms are given. Such structures are represented in measurement spaces that are generalizations of the real number system. Furthermore, a precise description of "Archimedean axioms" is given and it is shown that in all interesting cases "Archimedean axioms" are independent of other measurement axioms.

BASES AND CIRCUITS OF FUZZIFYING MATROIDS
In this paper, as an application of fuzzy matroids, the fuzzifying greedy algorithm is proposed and an achievableexample is given. Basis axioms and circuit axioms of fuzzifying matroids, which are the semantic extension for thebasis axioms and circuit axioms of crisp matroids respectively, are presented. It is proved that a fuzzifying matroidis equivalent to a mapping which satisfies the basis ...
متن کاملBASE AXIOMS AND SUBBASE AXIOMS IN M-FUZZIFYING CONVEX SPACES
Based on a completely distributive lattice $M$, base axioms and subbase axioms are introduced in $M$-fuzzifying convex spaces. It is shown that a mapping $mathscr{B}$ (resp. $varphi$) with the base axioms (resp. subbase axioms) can induce a unique $M$-fuzzifying convex structure with $mathscr{B}$ (resp. $varphi$) as its base (resp. subbase). As applications, it is proved that bases and subbase...

متن کاملThe Urysohn, completely Hausdorff and completely regular axioms in $L$-fuzzy topological spaces
In this paper, the Urysohn, completely Hausdorff and completely regular axioms in $L$-topological spaces are generalized to $L$-fuzzy topological spaces. Each $L$-fuzzy topological space can be regarded to be Urysohn, completely Hausdorff and completely regular tosome degree. Some properties of them are investigated. The relations among them and $T_2$ in $L$-fuzzy topological spaces are discussed.
