Powerset structures of extensional fuzzy sets in sets with similarity relations are investigated. It is proved that extensional fuzzy sets have powerset structures which are powerset theories in the category of sets with similarity relations, and some of these powerset theories are defined also by algebraic theories (monads). Between Zadeh's fuzzy powerset theory and the classical powerset theo...

seismic hazard assessment like many other issues in seismology is a complicated problem, which is due to variety of parameters affecting the occurrence of earthquake. uncertainty, which is a result of vagueness and incompleteness of the data, should be considered in a rationale way. herein, fuzzy set theory is used to take into account the uncertainty existed in the seismic hazard analysis. the...

This paper is a continuation of the first part of our study on type 〈1, 1〉 fuzzy quantifiers determined by fuzzy measures, in which the basic notions and examples were introduced. Here, we study the properties of permutation invariance and isomorphism invariance of fuzzy quantifiers determined by pairs of functionals (S, φ) and their special cases, e.g., fuzzy quantifiers defined by fuzzy measu...

Since its original formulation, the theory of fuzzy sets has spawned a number of extensions where the role of membership values in the real unit interval $[0, 1]$ is handed over to more complex mathematical entities. Amongst the many existing extensions, two similar ones, the fuzzy multisets and the hesitant fuzzy sets, rely on collections of several distinct values to represent fuzzy membershi...

This work is towards the study of the relationship between fuzzy preordered sets and Alexandrov (left/right) fuzzy topologies based on generalized residuated lattices here the fuzzy sets are equipped with generalized residuated lattice in which the commutative property doesn't hold. Further, the obtained results are used in the study of fuzzy automata theory.

When 60 years ago Shannon established “A Mathematical Theory of Communication” nobody could know the consequences for science and technology in the second half of the century. Shannon published his article in two parts in the July and October 1948 editions of the Bell System Technical Journal. However, it is very probable that this article wouldn’t have become famous without the help of Weaver,...

lthough fuzzy set theory and  sheaf theory have been developed and studied independently,  ulrich hohle shows that a large part of fuzzy set  theory  is in fact a subfield of sheaf theory. many authors have studied mathematical structures, in particular, algebraic structures, in both  categories of these generalized (multi)sets. using hohle's idea, we show that for a (universal) algebra $a$, th...

A fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. The concept of fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations was introduced by L.A.Zadeh in 1965cite{zl} and further studiedcite{ka}. It was Rosenfeldcite{ra} who considered fuzzy relations on fuzzy sets and developed the theory of fuzzy graphs in 1975. The concepts of fuzzy trees, blocks, bridges and cut nodes in fuzzy graph has been studi...
