Many geographical applications deal with objects in space that cannot be adequately described by determinate, crisp spatial concepts because of their intrinsically indeterminate and vague nature. Geographical information systems and spatial database systems are currently unable to cope with this kind of data. To support the efficient representation, querying, and manipulation of vague spatial d...

In this paper, the study of vague structures of Γ-semigroups is initiated by introducing the concepts of vague subsemigroup, vague bi-ideal and vague (1, 2)-ideal in a Γ-semigroup and some fundamental results are obtained. Then the concept of vague weakly completely prime ideals in Γ-semigroups has been introduced and studied directly and via operator semigroups

The notion of positive implicative vague ideals in BCKalgebras is introduced. A relation between a vague ideal and a positive implicative vague ideal is discussed. Characterizations of a positive implicative vague ideal are considered. 2010 AMS Classification: 06F35, 03G25, 03E72

Focusing on ring-shaped ion velocity distributions with a finite width formed in magnetic reconnection the presence of guide field, intriguing properties such as formation mechanism, significant change shape, and necessary conditions for are investigated by means theory simulations. The ring distribution predominantly originates from variations seed particles pickup-like process. A function exa...

Naturally occurring phenomena in space often (if not always) cannot be precisely defined because of the intrinsic uncertainty of their features. The location of animal refuges might not be precisely known, and the path of rivers might be uncertain due to water volume fluctuations and changing land characteristics. The extension of lakes can also change and thus have uncertain areas. All these a...

Vague predicates such as heap, tall, bald, near to, nicer than, etc. are characterized by their Sorites susceptibility and the existence of borderline cases. In attempting to develop a general theory, diverse vague predicates are often analyzed in rather broad natural language settings. Because this has proven to be rather difficult, the phenomenon of vagueness is studied here in a narrower and...
