A positive real interval, [a, b] can be partitioned into sub-intervals such that sub-interval widths divided by sub-interval ”‘average”’ values remains constant. That both Arithmetic Mean and Geometric Mean ”‘average”’ values produce constant ratios for the same log scale is the stated invariance proved in this short note. The continuous analog is briefly considered and shown to have similar pr...

This article investigates the soft-interior (se) and the soft-cover (sc) of operator ideals. These operations, and especially the first one, have been widely used before, but making their role explicit and analyzing their interplay with the arithmetic mean operations is essential for the study in [10] of the multiplicity of traces. Many classical ideals are “soft”, i.e., coincide with their sof...

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...
