Based on the model of symmetric and asymmetric duopoly option game, this paper discusses the present value of profit flows and the sunk investment costs for the trapezoidal fuzzy number. It constructs the fuzzy expressions of the investment value and investment threshold of followers and leaders under fuzzy environment and conducts numerical analysis. This offers a kind of explanation to the in...

The problem of the nearest approximation of fuzzy numbers by piecewise linear 1-knot fuzzy numbers is discussed. By using 1-knot fuzzy numbers one may obtain approximations which are simple enough and flexible to reconstruct the input fuzzy concepts under study. They might be also perceived as a generalization of the trapezoidal approximations. Moreover, these approximations possess some desira...

In this paper, an improvement of the nearest trapezoidal approximation operator preserving the expected interval is studied, which is proposed by Grzegorzewski and Mrówka. A formula for computing the improved approximation is presented. Moreover, the nearest triangular approximation operator preserving the expected interval is also investigated. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

The Riemann sums and the trapezoidal sums of functions defined on a bounded closed interval are well known as approximate sums of the Riemann integrals of the functions. In this paper the author represents the convergence rates of the Riemann sums and the trapezoidal sums as some limits of their expanded error terms. Let [a, b] be a bounded closed interval. We take an n-division ∆ of [a, b] def...

In a framework with two parties, deterministic voter preferences and geographical constraints, we propose a set of simple axioms and show that they jointly characterize the districting rule that maximizes the number of districts a party can win, given an electoral outcome (the " optimal gerrymandering rule "). As a corollary, we obtain that no districting rule can satisfy our axioms and treat p...

In this paper, a new concept called Trident Fuzzy Aggregation Operators in which the operation is made by grouping of numerous Trapezoidal Numbers (TTriFN) to become solitary trapezoidal trident fuzzy numeral for parallel computing application introduced. This proposed operator architecture applicable development networking and ranking concepts. Also, geometric mean over ‘n’ TTriFN on left-side...

We propose a novel SAS macro to utilize PROC NLMIXED in SAS to estimate the standard error for AUC when the AUC estimator is based on the trapezoidal rule. Our method accounts for the trapezoidal region-by-region correlation structure. An example is provided for the standard error of the AUC under the ROC curve.

The main aim of this paper is to deal with a fuzzy version of Farkas lemma involving trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. In turns to that the fuzzy linear programming and duality theory on these problems can be used to provide a constructive proof for Farkas lemma. Keywords Farkas Lemma, Fuzzy Linear Programming, Duality, Ranking Functions.

Recently, fuzzy linear programming problems have been considered by many. In the literature of fuzzy linear programming several models are offered and therefore some various methods have been suggested to solve these problems. One of the most important of these problems that recently has been considered; are Fully Fuzzy Linear Programming (FFLP), which all coefficients and variables of the prob...
