This paper presents characterizations of M-fuzzifying matroids bymeans of two kinds of fuzzy operators, called M-fuzzifying derived operatorsand M-fuzzifying difference derived operators.

In some multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems, various relationships among the decision attributes should be considered. This paper investigates the prioritization relationship of attributes in MADM with trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs). TrIFNs are a special intuitionistic fuzzy set on a real number set and have the better capability to model ill-known quantities. Fir...

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...

An L-fuzzifying matroid is a pair (E, I), where I is a map from2E to L satisfying three axioms. In this paper, the notion of closure operatorsin matroid theory is generalized to an L-fuzzy setting and called L-fuzzifyingclosure operators. It is proved that there exists a one-to-one correspondencebetween L-fuzzifying matroids and their L-fuzzifying closure operators.

Although fuzzy operators have deserved a large attention in the Euclidean case, almost nothing exists concerning the geodesic case. In this paper, we address this question, by de"ning fuzzy geodesic distances between points in a fuzzy set, and geodesic balls in a fuzzy set (based on the comparison of fuzzy numbers), from which we derive fuzzy geodesic mathematical morphology operators. The prop...

We introduce fuzzy closure systems and fuzzy closure operators as extensions of closure systems and closure operators. We study relationships between fuzzy closure systems and fuzzy closure spaces. In particular, two families F (S) and F (C) of fuzzy closure systems and fuzzy closure operators on X are complete lattice isomorphic.

In this paper, by presenting some notions and theorems, we obtaindifferent types of fuzzy topologies. In fact, we obtain someLowen-type  and Chang-type fuzzy topologies on general fuzzyautomata. To this end, first we define a Kuratowski fuzzy interioroperator which induces a  Lowen-type  fuzzy topology on the  set ofstates of a max- min general   fuzzy automaton. Also by  provingsome theorems, ...
