in this paper, countable compactness and the lindel¨of propertyare defined for l-fuzzy sets, where l is a complete de morgan algebra. theydon’t rely on the structure of the basis lattice l and no distributivity is requiredin l. a fuzzy compact l-set is countably compact and has the lindel¨ofproperty. an l-set having the lindel¨of property is countably compact if andonly if it is fuzzy compact. ...
