In this paper, we present some results on weak laws of large numbers for weighted sums of fuzzy random variables taking values in the space of normal and upper-semicontinuous fuzzy sets with compact support in a separable real Banach space. First, we give weak laws of large numbers for weighted sums of strong-compactly uniformly integrable fuzzy random variables. Then, we consider the case that...

Liu process is a type of fuzzy process. It is a fuzzy counterpart of Brownian motion. In this paper, the continuity property of Liu process is studied. It is proved that almost all Liu paths are Lipschitz continuous.

In the present paper we define the notion of fuzzy inner productand study the properties of the corresponding fuzzy norm. In particular, it isshown that the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality holds. Moreover, it is proved thatevery such fuzzy inner product space can be imbedded in a complete one andthat every subspace of a fuzzy Hilbert space has a complementary subspace.Finally, the notions of fuzzy bo...

With the emergence of the fundamental paper [5] by Zadeh in 1965 number of papers have appeared in literature featuring the application of fuzzy sets to pattern recognition, decision problems, function approximation, system theory, fuzzy logic, fuzzy algorithms, fuzzy automata, fuzzy grammars, fuzzy languages, fuzzy algebras, fuzzy topology, etc. [2], [7]. In this note, our interests are in the...

The concept of a fuzzy topology on a fuzzy set was introduced in [Fuzzy Set Syst. 45 (1992) 103]. The aim of this paper is to introduce fuzzy semicontinuity and fuzzy semiseparation axioms in this new situation and validity of some characterization of these concepts have been examined. Also, we define a fuzzy generalized semiopen set and introduce fuzzy separation axioms by using this concept. ...

After the introduction of fuzzy sets by Zadeh, there have been a number of generalizations of this fundamental concept. The notion of intuitionistic fuzzy sets introduced by Atanassov is one among them. Using the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, Çoker [5] introduced the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy topological spaces. In this paper, we define the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy semiopen (r...

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the notion of a fuzzy H-weak contraction and prove a fixed point theorem for fuzzy H-weak contractions without exploiting the notion of continuity in M -complete fuzzy metric spaces. Examples are given to show that our result is a proper extension of some known results in the literature.

In this paper, we use the weighted distance between fuzzy numbers to investigate the approximation of arbitrary fuzzy numbers by weighted distance. We then discuss properties of the approximation strategy including continuity, translation invariance, scale invariance and identity and give an application to the generation of fuzzy partitions. 2006 Elsevier Inc.
