For fuzzy mathematical models using general fuzzy sets rather than fuzzy numbers or fuzzy vectors, operations (addition and scalar multiplication) and orderings of fuzzy sets are needed, and the concept of fuzzy set-valued convex mappings is important. In the present paper, fundamental properties of operations, orderings, and fuzzy set-valued convex mappings for general fuzzy sets are investiga...

Abstract In this paper, the notions of subgradmnt, subdifferentla[, and differential with respect to convex fuzzy mappings are investigated, whmh provides the basis for the fuzzy extremum problem theory We consider the problems of minimizing or maximizing a convex fuzzy mapping over a convex set and develop the necessary and/or sufficient optlmahty conditions. Furthermore, the concept of saddle...

convexity theory and duality theory are important issues in math- ematical programming. within the framework of credibility theory, this paper rst introduces the concept of convex fuzzy variables and some basic criteria. furthermore, a convexity theorem for fuzzy chance constrained programming is proved by adding some convexity conditions on the objective and constraint functions. finally,...

in order to have better insight of project characteristics, different kinds of fuzzy analysis for project networks have been recently proposed, most of which consider activities duration as the main and only source of imprecision and vagueness, but as it is usually experienced in real projects, the structure of the network is also subject to changes. in this paper we consider three types of imp...

in this paper, we introduce some properties of an intuitionistic normal fuzzy m-subgroup of m- group with m-homomorphism and isomorphism. we study he image, the pre-image and the inverse mapping of the intuitionistic normal fuzzy m-‎subgroups.‎

based on credibilistic value-at-risk (cvar) of regularfuzzy variable, we introduce a new cvar reduction method fortype-2 fuzzy variables. the reduced fuzzy variables arecharacterized by parametric possibility distributions. we establishsome useful analytical expressions for mean values and secondorder moments of common reduced fuzzy variables. the convex properties of second order moments with ...

In this paper, firstly, we gain some basic properties and characterization theorems of the differential and local sub-differential of the fuzzy mapping, obtain an important result that the local sub-differential of fuzzy mapping is an empty set or a convex set. Secondly, we generalize the concept of local differentiability of fuzzy mapping, and obtain some basic properties about the concept. At...

We establishsome useful analytical expressions for mean values and secondorder moments of common reduced fuzzy variables. The convex properties of second order moments with ...

This paper presents the concept of partition of a nonempty fuzzy set in nonempty convex fuzzy subsets. We restrict our discussion when the universal set, where are defined the fuzzy sets, is the real n-dimensional Euclidean space. We also show that a nonempty fuzzy set has a least one partition in nonempty convex fuzzy subsets.
