in this paper, we define the notions of fuzzy congruence relations and fuzzy convex subalgebras on a commutative residuated lattice and we obtain some related results. in particular, we will show that there exists a one to one correspondence between the set of all fuzzy congruence relations and the set of all fuzzy convex subalgebras on a commutative residuated lattice. then we study fuzzy...

Traditional probabilistic description of uncertainty is based on additive probability measures. To describe nonprobabilistic uncertainty, it is therefore reasonable to consider non-additive measures. An important class of non-additive measures are possibility measures, for which μ(A ∪ B) = max(μ(A), μ(B)). In this paper, we show that possibility measures are, in some sense, universal approximat...

We first obtain some properties of a fundamentally nonexpansive self-mapping on a nonempty subset of a Banach space and next show that if the Banach space is having the Opial condition, then the fixed points set of such a mapping with the convex range is nonempty. In particular, we establish that if the Banach space is uniformly convex, and the range of such a mapping is bounded, closed and con...

This paper deals with convex optimization problems in the face of data uncertainty within the framework of robust optimization. It provides various properties and characterizations of the set of all robust optimal solutions of the problems. In particular, it provides generalizations of the constant subdifferential property as well as the constant Lagrangian property for solution sets of convex ...

We consider a rather general class of mathematical programming problems with data uncertainty, where the uncertainty set is represented by a system of convex inequalities. We prove that the robust counterparts of this class of problems can be equivalently reformulated as finite and explicit optimization problems. Moreover, we develop simplified reformulations for problems with uncertainty sets ...

It has been a challenge to characterize the set of all possible sums of random variables with given marginal distributions, referred to as an aggregation set in this paper. We study the aggregation set via its connection to the corresponding lower-convex set, which is the set of all sums of random variables that are smaller than the respective marginal distributions in convex order. Theoretical...

Robust nonlinear optimization is not as well developed as the linear case, and limited in the constraints and uncertainty sets it can handle. In this work we extend the scope of robust optimization by showing how to solve a large class of robust nonlinear optimization problems. The fascinating and appealing property of our approach is that any convex uncertainty set can be used. We give an expl...
