In this paper, we introduce the notion of an action $Y_X$as a generalization of the notion of a module,and the notion of a norm $vt: Y_Xto F$, where $F$ is a field and $vartriangle(xy)vartriangle(y') =$ $ vartriangle(y)vartriangle(xy')$ as well as the notion of fuzzy norm, where $vt: Y_Xto [0, 1]subseteq {bf R}$, with $bf R$  the set of all real numbers. A great many standard mappings on algebr...
