Abstract
In this paper, we first introduce the notion of nullnorms on bounded trellises and investigate their fundamental properties. Then, based on the existence of t-norms, t-conorms, two order-preserving functions, and a conditionally associative, commutative and increasing function, we propose a method for constructing nullnorms on bounded trellises. Finally, we prove that the class of nullnorms on bounded trellises, denoted by , can be completely characterized by these four components. Meanwhile, our results on nullnorms extend and unify several well-known results in the literature.
期刊介绍:
Since its launching in 1978, the journal Fuzzy Sets and Systems has been devoted to the international advancement of the theory and application of fuzzy sets and systems. The theory of fuzzy sets now encompasses a well organized corpus of basic notions including (and not restricted to) aggregation operations, a generalized theory of relations, specific measures of information content, a calculus of fuzzy numbers. Fuzzy sets are also the cornerstone of a non-additive uncertainty theory, namely possibility theory, and of a versatile tool for both linguistic and numerical modeling: fuzzy rule-based systems. Numerous works now combine fuzzy concepts with other scientific disciplines as well as modern technologies.
In mathematics fuzzy sets have triggered new research topics in connection with category theory, topology, algebra, analysis. Fuzzy sets are also part of a recent trend in the study of generalized measures and integrals, and are combined with statistical methods. Furthermore, fuzzy sets have strong logical underpinnings in the tradition of many-valued logics.
