Weighted means and ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators are well-known functions widely used in aggregation processes. Although both are defined through weighting vectors, their behavior is quite different: The weighted means allow to weight each information source in relation to their reliability while OWA operators allow to weight the values according to their ordering. Nevertheless, th...

In this paper, we focus on the aggregation problem for (trust, distrust) couples in trust networks. In particular, we study approaches based on classical and induced ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators.

Let φ(z) = (φ1(z), · · · , φn(z)) be a holomorphic self-map of B and ψ(z) a holomorphic function on B, where B is the unit ball of C n . Let 0 < p, s < +∞,−n−1 < q < +∞, q + s > −1 and α ≥ 0, this paper gives some necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted composition operator Wψ,φ induced by φ and ψ to be bounded and compact between the space F (p, q, s) and α-Bloch space β.

Let ϕ(z) = (ϕ 1 (z),...,ϕ n (z)) be a holomorphic self-map of D n and ψ(z) a holomorphic function on D n , where D n is the unit polydiscs of C n. Let 0 < α, β < 1, we compute the essential norm of a weighted composition operator ψC ϕ between α-Bloch space Ꮾ α (D n) and β-Bloch space Ꮾ β (D n).

Any analytic self-map of the open unit disk induces a bounded composition operator on the Hardy space H and on the standard weighted Bergman spaces Aα. For a particular self-map, it is reasonable to wonder whether there is any meaningful relationship between the norms of the corresponding operators acting on each of these spaces. In this paper, we demonstrate an inequality which, at least to a ...

In this chapter, a new family of multifactorial function, called generalized additive weighted multifactorial function, is proposed and discussed in detail. First, its properties in n-dimensional space are discussed and then our results are extended to the infinite dimensional space. Second, the implication of its constant coefficients is explained by fuzzy integral. Finally, its application in...

We consider different types of aggregation operators such as the heavy ordered weighted averaging (HOWA) operator and the fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (FOWA) operator. We introduce a new extension of the OWA operator called the fuzzy heavy ordered weighted averaging (FHOWA) operator. The main characteristic of this aggregation operator is that it deals with uncertain information represented...

R. Yager [7] introduced a new aggregation technique based on the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators. In this article we illustrate the applicability of OWA operators to a doctoral student selection problem at the Graduate School of Turku Centre for Computer Science.

Let φ(z) = (φ 1 (z),. .. , φ n (z)) be a holomorphic self-map of U n and ψ(z) a holomorphic function on U n , where U n is the unit polydisk of C n. Let p ≥ 0, q ≥ 0, this paper gives some necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted composition operator W ψ,φ induced by ψ and φ to be bounded and compact between p-Bloch space B p (U n) and q-Bloch space B q (U n).
