In a previous paper, Elorza and Burillo explored the coherence property in fuzzy consequence operators. In this paper we show that fuzzy closing operators of mathematical morphology are always coherent operators. We also show that the coherence property is the key to link the four following families: fuzzy closing morphological operators, fuzzy consequence operators, fuzzy preorders and fuzzy c...

Alexandrov topologies are the topologies induced by relations. This paper addresses the properties of Alexandrov topologies as the extensions of strong topologies and strong cotopologies in complete residuated lattices. With the concepts of Zhang’s completeness, the notions are discussed as extensions of interior and closure operators in a sense as Pawlak’s the rough set theory. It is shown tha...

In the present paper, we introduce topological notions defined by means of α-open sets when these are planted into the framework of Ying’s fuzzifying topological spaces (by Lukasiewicz logic in [0, 1]). We introduce T 0 −, T 1 −, T 2 (αHausdorff)-, T 3 (α-regular)and T 4 (αnormal)-separation axioms. Furthermore, the R 0− and R 1− separation axioms are studied and their relations with the T 1 − ...

It is shown that, for any spatial frame L (i.e., L is a complete lattice generated by the set of all prime elements), both the specialization L-preorder of L-topological spaces introduced by Lai and Zhang [Fuzzy preorder and fuzzy topology, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 157 (2006) 1865–1885] and that of L-fuzzifying topological spaces introduced by Fang and Qiu [Fuzzy orders and fuzzifying topologies,...
