Citation classics identify those highly cited papers which are an important reference point in a research field. Identifying citation classics in a research field is one of the main approaches used to conduct a systematic evaluation of research performance. Highly cited articles are interesting due to the potential association between high citation counts and high quality research. The aim of t...

Recently, two types of simulations (forward and backward simulations) and four types of bisimulations (forward, backward, forward-backward, andbackward-forwardbisimulations) between fuzzyautomatahavebeen introduced. If there is at least one simulation/bisimulation of some of these types between the given fuzzy automata, it has been proved that there is the greatest simulation/bisimulation of th...

Recently, Fullér et al. [Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 2010] introduced a new f -weighted index of interactivity, ρf (A,B), between marginal possibility distributions A and B of a joint possibility distribution C for any weighting function f . They also left two open questions in connection with the lower limit for f -weighted possibilistic correlation coefficient related to the improved index of int...

Atanassov (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 20 (1986) 87-96) defined basic operations over the intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Here we shall introduce two operations, subtraction and division, derived from the deconvolution for equations using addition and multiplication operations, respectively. In addition, we shall give some conditions to examine the correctness regarding the defined operations. The remark...

New types of systems of fuzzy relation inequalities and equations, called weakly linear, have been recently introduced in [J. Ignjatović, M. Ćirić, S. Bogdanović, On the greatest solutions to weakly linear systems of fuzzy relation inequalities and equations, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 161 (2010) 3081–3113.]. The mentioned paper dealt with homogeneous weakly linear systems, composed of fuzzy relati...

in this paper we define ?-independent (a weak-version of independence), kronecker and dissociate sets on hypergroups and study their properties and relationships among them and some other thin sets such as independent and sidon sets. these sets have the lacunarity or thinness property and are very useful indeed. for example varopoulos used the kronecker sets to prove the malliavin theorem. in t...

In this paper, we introduce tripled partially ordered sets and monotone functions on tripled partiallyordered sets. Some basic properties on these new dened sets are studied and some examples forclarifying are given.

Arenas et al. [1] introduced the notion of lambda-closed sets as a generalization of locally closed sets. In this paper, we introduce the notions of lambda-locally closed sets, Lambda_lambda-closed sets and lambda_g-closed sets and obtain some decompositions of closed sets and continuity in topological spaces.
