We introduce a new method for ranked set sampling with multiple criteria. The method relaxes the restriction of selecting just one individual variable from each ranked set. Under the new method for ranking, units are ranked in sets based on linear extensions in partially order set theory with considering all variables simultaneously. Results willbe evaluated by a relatively extensive simulation...

This paper focuses on the relationship between an $L$-subset and the system of level-elements induced by it, where the underlying lattice $L$ is a complete residuated lattice and the domain set of $L$-subset is an $L$-partially ordered set $(X,P)$. Firstly, we obtain the sufficient and necessary condition that an $L$-subset is represented by its system of level-elements. Then, a new representat...

in this paper we investigate the existence and uniqueness for volterra-fredholm type integral equations and extension of this type of integral equations. the result is obtained by using the  coupled fixed point theorems in the framework of banach space $ x=c([a,b],mathbb{r})$. finally, we  give an example to illustrate the applications of our results.

in this article, we verify existence and uniqueness of positive and nondecreasing solution for nonlinear boundary value problem of fractional differential equation in the form d_{0^{+}}^{alpha}x(t)+f(t,x(t))=0, 0x(0)= x'(0)=0, x'(1)=beta x(xi), where $d_{0^{+}}^{alpha}$ denotes the standard riemann-liouville fractional derivative, 0an illustrative example is also presented.

recently, cho et al. [y. j. cho, r. saadati, s. h. wang, common xed point theorems on generalized distance in ordered cone metric spaces, comput. math. appl. 61 (2011) 1254-1260] dened the concept of the c-distance in a cone metric space and proved some xed point theorems on c-distance. in this paper, we prove some new xed point and common xed point theorems by using the distance in ordere...

This paper constructs a logic of soft constraints where the set of degrees of preference forms a partially ordered set. When the partially ordered set is a distributive lattice, this reduces to the idempotent semiring-based CSP approach, and the lattice operations can be used to define a sound and complete proof theory. For the general case, it is shown how sound and complete deduction can be p...

Let $mathcal{X}$ be a partially ordered set and $d$ be a generalized metric on $mathcal{X}$. We obtain some results in coupled and coupled coincidence of $g$-monotone functions on $mathcal{X}$, where $g$ is a function from $mathcal{X}$ into itself. Moreover, we show that a nonexpansive mapping on a partially ordered Hilbert space has a fixed point lying in  the unit ball of  the Hilbert space. ...

We consider the concept of Ω-distance on a complete partially ordered G-metric space and prove some common fixed point theorems.
