Fuzzy $bigwedge_{e}$ Sets and Continuity in Fuzzy Topological spaces

We introduce a new class of fuzzy open sets called fuzzy $bigwedge_e$ sets which includes the class of fuzzy $e$-open sets. We also define a weaker form of fuzzy $bigwedge_e$ sets termed as fuzzy locally $bigwedge_e$ sets. By means of these new sets, we present the notions of fuzzy $bigwedge_e$ continuity and fuzzy locally $bigwedge_e$ continuity which are weaker than fuzzy $e$-continuity and furthermore we investigate the relationships between these new types of continuity and some others.
