In this paper, we introduce the concept of (α, β)-fuzzy ideals in ternary semigroups, which is a generalization of fuzzy ideals in ternary semigroups. We investigate the related properties of ternary semigroups. The lower and upper parts of fuzzy subsets of a ternary semigroup are defined. Characterizations of regular ternary semigroups by the properties of the lower part of (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy left ...

Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus is a mosquito-borne alphavirus associated with sporadic outbreaks in human and equid populations in the Western Hemisphere. After the bite of an infected mosquito, the virus initiates a biphasic disease: a peripheral phase with viral replication in lymphoid and myeloid tissues, followed by a neurotropic phase with infection of central nervous system (C...

The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of (∈,∈∨ q)-fuzzy (implicative, MV and G-) filters of pseudo-BL algebras and to investigate some of their related properties. Some characterization theorems of these generalized fuzzy (implicative) filters are derived. The relationship among these generalized fuzzy filters of pseudo-BL algebras is considered. It is proved that an (∈,∈∨ q)fuzzy fi...

In this paper, we dene the concepts of compatibility between twofuzzy subsets on Q, the set of states of a max- min general fuzzy automatonand transitivity in a max-min general fuzzy automaton. We then construct auniform structure on Q, and dene a topology on it. We also dene the conceptof semi-uniform structures on a nonempty set X and construct a semi-uniformstructure on the set of states of ...

In this paper, we deal with soft lattice implication algebras based on fuzzy sets. Using the concepts of fuzzy (implicative) filters, (∈,∈∨q)fuzzy (implicative) filters and (∈,∈∨q)-fuzzy (implicative) filters, some characterizations for ∈-soft sets and q-soft sets to be (implicative) filteristic soft lattice implication algebras are established.

In this paper, we define the concept of an intuitionistic Q-fuzzy normal HX group and some related properties are investigated. We also define the level subsets of an intuitionistic Q-fuzzy normal HX group and discussed some of its properties. A few equivalent propositions of fuzzy HX group constituting an intuitionistic Q-fuzzy normal HX group are given.

The concepts of (∈ γ , ∈ γ ∨ q δ )-fuzzy bi-hyperideals and (∈ γ , ∈ γ ∨ q δ )-fuzzy quasi-hyperideals of a semihyperring are introduced, and some related properties of such (∈ γ , ∈ γ ∨ q δ )-fuzzy hyperideals are investigated. In particular, the notions of hyperregular semihyperrings and left duo semihyperrings are given, and their characterizations in terms of hyperideals and (∈ γ , ∈ γ ∨ q ...

and Applied Analysis 3 is Cauchy. If each Cauchy sequence is convergent, then the fuzzy norm is said to be complete, and the fuzzy normed space is called a fuzzy Banach space. Let X,N be a fuzzy normed space and Y,N ′ a fuzzy Banach space. For a given mapping f : X → Y , we use the abbreviation Df ( x, y ) : f ( 2x y ) f ( 2x − y 2f x − fx y − fx − y − 2f 2x , 2.1 for all x, y ∈ X. Recall Df ≡ ...

BACKGROUND The apolipoprotein E (APOE) epsilon 4 allele is a marker of adverse outcome following head injury and intracerebral hemorrhage. Transgenic animal data in a focal cerebral ischemia model suggest that the epsilon 4 allele increases infarct size and functional impairment. OBJECTIVE To determine if APOE genotype is associated with functional recovery from ischemic stroke. DESIGN Pros...
