The tolerance graph is a well-defined topic for a crisp graph theory. But, tolerance in a fuzzy graph is defined recently and many properties have been investigated. But, in a fuzzy graph, only one tolerance is considered for every vertex. But, in an m-polar fuzzy graph (mPFG), each vertex and edge has a m number of membership values. So, defining tolerance for mPFG is not easy and needs some new ideas. By considering m tolerances for every component out of m components of membership values of a vertex or edge, we defined m-polar fuzzy tolerance graph (mPFTG). Here, m-polar fuzzy convex set (mPFCS) as well as strongly mPFCS are also studied. Some different types of mPFTGs like m-polar fuzzy min-tolerance graph, m-polar fuzzy max-tolerance graph, m-polar fuzzy sum-tolerance graph are also introduced. Some related terms like bounded mPFTG, m-polar fuzzy interval containment graph, m-polar fuzzy unit tolerance graph (mPF unit TG) are also defined. Here, m-polar fuzzy intersection graph along with tolerance core as well as tolerance support length are also discussed. Some interesting properties on m-polar fuzzy min-tolerance graph, m-polar fuzzy max-tolerance graph, m-polar fuzzy sum-tolerance graph are also investigated. Lastly, a real-life application based on an assigned work done by a private company has been discussed to show its practicability in mPFTG.
