The notion of fuzzy function based on many-valued equivalence relations (many-valued similarity relations (equalities) [17, 18, 19], fuzzy equivalence relations [4, 6, 7, 21, 22, 26], similarity relations [1, 2, 3, 15, 28], indistinguishability operators [27], etc.) has been introduced by several authors, and applied to category theory [5], approximate reasoning and fuzzy control theory [8, 10,...

Matrix-valued analogues of the little q-Jacobi polynomials are introduced and studied. For the 2 × 2-matrix-valued little q-Jacobi polynomials explicit expressions for the orthogonality relations, Rodrigues formula, three-term recurrence relation and its relation to matrix-valued q-hypergeometric series and the scalar-valued little q-Jacobi polynomials are presented. The study is based on the m...

In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between Hausdorff metric entropy and topological entropy of a semigroup defined by Bis. Some examples with positive or zero Hausdorff metric entropy are given. Moreov...

In this paper, we characterize local $T_{0}$ and $T_{1}$ quantale-valued gauge spaces, show how these concepts are related to each other and apply them to $mathcal{L}$-approach distance spaces and $mathcal{L}$-approach system spaces. Furthermore, we give the characterization of a closed point and $D$-connectedness in quantale-valued gauge spaces. Finally, we compare all these concepts to each o...

in this paper, we define and study the notion of the real-valued functions on a frame $l$. we show that $f(l) $, consisting of all frame homomorphisms from the power set of $mathbb{r}$ to a frame $ l$, is an $f$-ring, as a generalization of all functions from a set $x$ into $mathbb r$. also, we show that $f(l) $ is isomorphic to a sub-$f$-ring of $mathcal{r}(l)$, the ring of real-valued continu...

Inspired by the idea of multiplicative intuitionistic preference relation (Xia MM et al. Preference relations based on intuitionistic multiplicative information, IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, 2013, 21(1): 113-133), in this paper, a new preference relation called the interval-valued multiplicative intuitionistic preference relation is developed. It is analyzed the basic operations for inte...

Two integral solutions of q-difference equations of the hypergeometric type with |q| = 1 are constructed by using the double sine function. One is an integral of the Barnes type and the other is of the Euler type.

Let C(L) be the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a frame L. In this paper, strongly fixed ideals and characterization of maximal ideals of C(L) which is used with strongly fixed are introduced. In the case of weakly spatial frames this characterization is equivalent to the compactness of frames. Besides, the relation of the two concepts, fixed and strongly fixed ideals of C(L), is st...

In this paper, we define the almost uniform convergence and the almost everywhere convergence for cone-valued functions with respect to an operator valued measure. We prove the Egoroff theorem for Pvalued functions and operator valued measure θ : R → L(P, Q), where R is a σ-ring of subsets of X≠ ∅, (P, V) is a quasi-full locally convex cone and (Q, W) is a locally ...
