Pythagorean fuzzy sets provide stronger ability than intuitionistic fuzzy sets to model uncertainty information and knowledge, but little effort has been paid to conflict analysis of Pythagorean fuzzy information systems. In this paper, we present three types of positive, central, and negative alliances with different thresholds, and employ examples to illustrate how to construct the positive, ...

In this paper, we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear equation systems. This paper mainly to discuss a new decomposition of a nonsingular fuzzy matrix, the symmetric times triangular (ST) decomposition. By this decomposition, every nonsingular fuzzy matrix can be represented as a product of a fuzzy symmetric matrix S and a fuzzy triangular matrix T.

In this work, we propose an approach for computing the positive solution of a fully fuzzy linear system where the coefficient matrix is a fuzzy n×n matrix. To do this, we use arithmetic operations on fuzzy numbers that introduced by Kaffman in [18] and convert the fully fuzzy linear system into two n× n and 2n× 2n crisp linear systems. If the solutions of these linear systems don’t satisfy in p...

In 1965 Lofti A. Zadeh proposed fuzzy sets as a generalization of crisp (or classic) sets to address the incapability of crisp sets to model uncertainty and vagueness inherent in the real world. Initially, fuzzy sets did not receive a very warm welcome as many academics stood skeptical towards a theory of “imprecise” mathematics. In the middle to late 1980’s the success of fuzzy controllers bro...

The notion of absorbent ordered filters in implicative semigroupsis introduced, and its fuzzification is considered. Relations among (fuzzy) orderedfilters, (fuzzy) absorbent ordered filters, and (fuzzy) positive implicativeordered filters are stated. The extensionproperty for (fuzzy) absorbent orderedfilters is established. Conditions for (fuzzy) ordered filters to be (fuzzy)absorbent ordered ...

In this note first we define the notions of intuitionistic fuzzy dual positive implicative hyper K-ideals of types 1,2,3,4 and intuitionistic fuzzy dual hyper K-ideals. Then we give some classifications about these notions according to the level subsets. Also by given some examples we show that these notions are not equivalent, however we prove some theorems which show that there are some relat...

This paper presents a process to obtain the solution (or flux) of a fuzzy delay system and to determine the fuzzy expected curve for the HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) when HIV-positive individuals receive antiretroviral therapy. This delay is defined as the time between the infection of a CD4+ type T-lymphocyte cell by the virus and the production of new virus particles. The intracellular ...

This paper presents a fuzzy multiple criteria decision making (FMCDM) problem with the Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) based on the new concept of positive and negative ideal solution. Whereas decision making is a process which accuracy of data play major role to select the best alternative, considering decision making problems in fuzzy environments moti...
