Molodtsov introduced the theory of soft sets, which can be used as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. This paper aims to introduce the concept of the type-2 fuzzy soft set by integrating the type-2 fuzzy set theory and the soft set theory. Some operations on the type-2 fuzzy soft sets are given. Furthermore, we investigate the decision making based on type-2 fuzzy soft se...

The notion of fuzzy soft sets is a hybrid soft computing model that integrates both gradualness and parameterization methods in harmony to deal with uncertainty. The decomposition of fuzzy soft sets is of great importance in both theory and practical applications with regard to decision making under uncertainty. This study aims to explore decomposition of fuzzy soft sets with finite value space...

In this paper ,we fuzzify the new class of algebraic structure introduced by Kim[5].In this fuzzification(called fuzzy KS-semigroups),we introduce the notions of fuzzy sub KS-semigroups,fuzzy KS-ideal,fuzzy KS-p-ideal and investigate some of their related properties.The purpose of this study is to implement the fuzzy set theory and ideal theory in the KS-semigroups.This fuzzification leads to d...

The main goal of this contribution is to introduce the concept of higher order hesitant fuzzy soft set as an extension of fuzzy soft set that encompasses most of the existing extensions of fuzzy soft set as special cases. Furthermore, this new concept provides us with a method for dealing with multicriteria fuzzy decision making problems which are difficult to explain in other existing extensio...

In this paper the notions of bipolar valued fuzzy subsemigroup, bipolar valued fuzzy bi-ideal, bipolar valued fuzzy (1,2)ideal and bipolar valued fuzzy ideal in a Γ-semigroup have been introduced. Some important characterizations are also obtained. Mathematics Subject Classification: 20M12, 03F55, 03E72

We characterize a fuzzy lattice through a fuzzy partial order relation, define ideals and filters of fuzzy lattices, characterize an ideal of fuzzy lattice using its level set and its support and show that a subset of a fuzzy lattice is an ideal if and only if its support is an ideal. Similarly, we show the same for its level set. Lastly, we define some kinds of ideals and filters of fuzzy latt...

Maji et al. introduced the concept of fuzzy soft sets as a generalization of the standard soft sets and presented an application of fuzzy soft sets in a decision making problem. In this paper, we apply fuzzy soft sets to  hyperrings. The concept of ( , ) q       -fuzzy soft  -hyperideals of  -hyperrings is first introduced. Some new characterizations are investigated. In particular, a ...
