L-FUZZIFYING TOPOLOGICAL GROUPS

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a concept of$L$-fuzzifying topological groups (here $L$ is a completelydistributive lattice) and discuss some of their basic properties andthe structures. We prove that its corresponding $L$-fuzzifyingneighborhood structure is translation invariant. A characterizationof such topological groups in terms of the corresponding$L$-fuzzifying neighborhood structure of the unit is given. It isshown that the category of $L$-fuzzifying topological groups$L$-{bf FYTPG} is topological over the category of groups {bf GRP}with respect to the forgetful functor. As an application, theconclusion that the product of $L$-fuzzifying topological groups isalso an $L$-fuzzifying topological group is proved. Finally, it isproved the forgetful functor preserves the product.
