Given an irreducible sofic shift X, we show that an irreducible shift of finite type Y of lower entropy is a factor of X if and only if it is a factor of X by an open bi-continuing code. If these equivalent conditions hold and Y is mixing, then any code from a proper subshift of X to Y can be extended to an open bi-continuing code on X. These results are still valid when X is assumed to be only...

olds ( α̃, β̃ ) and interval valued fuzzy generalized bi-ideals with thresholds ( α̃, β̃ ) , which are generalization of interval valued fuzzy ideals, interval valued fuzzy interior ideals, interval valued fuzzy quasi ideals and interval valued fuzzy generalized bi-ideals, in a semigroup are introduced, and related properties are investigated. Characterizations of regular semigroups by the properti...

In this paper, we introduce the notions of intuitionistic fuzzy prime (resp. strongly prime and semiprime) bi-ideals of a semigroup. By using these ideas we characterize those semigroups for which each intuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideal is semiprime and strongly prime. Key words: Intuitionistic fuzzy set; intuitionistic fuzzy bi-ideal; intuitionistic fuzzy prime (resp. strongly prime and semiprime) ...

The concept of q , -fuzzy ternary subsemigroup (left, right, lateral, quasi-, bi-) ideal of a ternary semigroup is introduced and several related properties are investigated. We give some characterizations of regular and weakly regular ternary semigroups by q , -fuzzy left (right, lateral) ideals, q , -fuzzy quasi-ideals and q , -fuzzy bi-(generalized bi-) ideals.

Let S be an ordered semigroup. In this paper we first introduce the concepts of (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy ideals, (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy bi-ideals and (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy generalized bi-ideals of an ordered semigroup S, and investigate their related properties. Furthermore, we also define the upper and lower parts of fuzzy subsets of an ordered semigroup S, and investigate the properties of (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy ideals of S....

Using the idea of a quasi-coincedence of a fuzzy point with a fuzzy set, the concept of an (α, β)-fuzzy bi-ideal in ordered semigroups is introduced, which is a generalization of the concept of a fuzzy bi-ideal in ordered semigroups and some interesting characterizations theorems are obtained. A special attention is given to (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy bi-ideals. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 06F...

Right ternary near-rings (RTNR) are generalization of their binary counterpart and fuzzy soft sets are generalization of soft sets which are parameterized family of subsets of a universal set. In this paper fuzzy soft Nsubgroups, quasi-ideals and bi-ideals over a right ternary near-ring N are defined. The substructures N-subgroups, quasi-ideals and bi-ideals of an RTNR are characterized in term...

We define interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-quasi-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-bi-ideals and characterize k-regular and k-intra regular hemirings by the properties of interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-ideals, interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-quasi-ideals and interval valued (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy k-bi-ideals. 2010 mathematics subject classification: 16Y60 • ...

Abstract: In this paper we define the concept of (∈, ∈ ∨qk)-intuitionistic fuzzy h-ideals, (∈, ∈ ∨qk)-intuitionistic fuzzy h-bi-ideals, (∈, ∈ ∨qk) ∗-intuitionistic fuzzy h-quasi-ideals of hemiring. And also characterized h-hemiregular and h-intra-hemiregular hemiring by the properties of these (∈, ∈ ∨qk)-intuitionistic fuzzy h-ideals, (∈, ∈ ∨qk)-intuitionistic fuzzy h-bi-ideals, and (∈, ∈ ∨qk)i...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of an intuitionistic fuzzy graph structure (IFGS). We discuss certain notions, including intuitionistic fuzzy Bi-cycles, intuitionistic fuzzy Bi-trees and φ-complement of an intuitionistic fuzzy graph structure with several examples. We also present φ-complement of an intuitionistic fuzzy graph structure along with self-complementary and strong self-compl...
