Algebraic Hyperstructure of Multi-Fuzzy Soft Sets Related to Polygroups

Abstract

The combination of two elements in a group structure is an element, while, in a hypergroup, the combination of two elements is a non-empty set. The use of hypergroups appears mainly in certain subclasses. For instance, polygroups, which are a special subcategory of hypergroups, are used in many branches of mathematics and basic sciences. On the other hand, in a multi-fuzzy set, an element of a universal set may occur more than once with possibly the same or different membership values. A soft set over a universal set is a mapping from parameters to the family of subsets of the universal set. If we substitute the set of all fuzzy subsets of the universal set instead of crisp subsets, then we obtain fuzzy soft sets. Similarly, multi-fuzzy soft sets can be obtained. In this paper, we combine the multi-fuzzy soft set and polygroup structure, from which we obtain a new soft structure called the multi-fuzzy soft polygroup. We analyze the relation between multi-fuzzy soft sets and polygroups. Some algebraic properties of fuzzy soft polygroups and soft polygroups are extended to multi-fuzzy soft polygroups. Some new operations on a multi-fuzzy soft set are defined. In addition to this, we investigate normal multi-fuzzy soft polygroups and present some of their algebraic properties.

Power Aggregation Operators of Interval-Valued Atanassov-Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets Based on Aczel–Alsina t-Norm and t-Conorm and Their Applications in Decision Making

“…In order to process the ambiguity and complexity of the attributes, the FS [ 1 ] is presented which is an effective tool to express the uncertain information. Now, the FS theory has a lot of applications in various fields, for example, employment selection (doctors and nurses) during the COVID-19 pandemic [ 2 ], designing different clothes with the help of fuzzy superior mandelbrot set [ 3 ], business analysis and management research [ 4 ], data-driven modeling in manifolds based on the FS theory [ 5 ], environmental uncertainty and digital transformation for fuzzy information [ 6 ], N-soft set under the consideration of multi-agent preferences and their operators [ 7 ], the algebraic structure of multi-fuzzy soft information [ 8 ], multi q-fuzzy soft expert information [ 9 ], strategic decision-making analysis based on fuzzy N-soft expert information [ 10 ], and treatment decision of lung cancer with the help of fuzzy information [ 11 ].…”

From HX-Groups to HX-Polygroups

“…Since polygroups have also recently been studied in relation to soft sets [42], it is worth developing the theory of soft HX-groups [43] and its extension to soft HX-polygroups.…”
