In this paper, we generalize the notion of principal ideal (resp. filter) on a lattice to the setting of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and investigate their various characterizations and properties. More specifically, we show that any principal intuitionistic fuzzy ideal (resp. filter) coincides with an intuitionistic fuzzy down-set (resp. up-set) generated by an intuitionistic fuzzy singleton. Afterwards, for a given intuitionistic fuzzy set, we introduce two intuitionistic fuzzy sets: its intuitionistic fuzzy down-set and up-set, and we investigate their interesting properties.

Recently, Milles and Hammami presented and studied the concept of a neutrosophic topology generated by a neutrosophic relation. As a continuation in the same direction, this paper studies the concepts of neutrosophic ideals and neutrosophic filters on that topology. More precisely, we offer the lattice structure of neutrosophic open sets of a neutrosophic topology generated via a neutrosophic relation and examine its different characteristics. Furthermore, we enlarge to this lattice structure the notions of ideals (respectively, filters) and characterize them with regard to the lattice operations. We end this work by studying the prime neutrosophic ideal and prime neutrosophic filter as interesting types of neutrosophic ideals and neutrosophic filters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recently, we have introduced and studied all possible four-point compositions (one degree of freedom) and five-point compositions (two degrees of freedom) of ternary relations in analogy with the usual composition of binary relations. In this paper, we introduce and study new types of compositions of ternary relations inspired by the compositions of binary relations introduced by Bandler and Kohout (BK-compositions, for short). Moreover, we pay particular attention to the link between BK-compositions and the traces of binary relations and use it as source of inspiration to introduce traces of ternary relations. Moreover, we show that these new notions of BK-compositions and traces are useful tools to solve some relational equations in an unknown ternary relation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In a recent paper, Çeven and Öztürk have generalized the notion of derivation on a lattice to f-derivation, where f is a given function of that lattice into itself. Under some conditions, they have characterized the distributive and modular lattices in terms of their isotone f-derivations. In this paper, we investigate the most important properties of isotone f-derivations on a lattice, paying particular attention to the lattice (resp. ideal) structures of isotone f-derivations and the sets of their f-fixed points. As applications, we provide characterizations of distributive lattices and principal ideals of a lattice in terms of principal f-derivations.

The aim of this article is to develop a representation theory of interval-valued Łukasiewicz–Moisil algebras; the concept of interval fuzzy sets involves the role that the notion of field of sets plays for the representation of Boolean algebras. This theory provides both a semantic interpretation of a Łukasiewicz interval-valued logic and a logical basis for the interval fuzzy sets theory.

The concepts of relations and information measures have importance whenever we deal with medical diagnosis problems. The aim of this paper is to investigate the global pandemic COVID-19 scenario using relations and information measures in an interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy (IVTSF) environment. An IVTSF set (IVTSFS) allows describing four aspects of human opinions i.e., membership, abstinence, non-membership, and refusal grade that process information in a significant way and reduce information loss. We propose similarity measures and relations in the IVTSF environment and investigate their properties. Both information measures and relations are applied in a medical diagnosis problem keeping in view the global pandemic COVID-19. How to determine the diagnosis based on symptoms of a patient using similarity measures and relations is discussed. Finally, the advantages of dealing with such problems using the IVTSF framework are demonstrated with examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present paper, we introduce the notion of (F,G)-derivation on a lattice as a generalization of the notion of (,)-derivation. This newly notion is based on two arbitrary binary operations F and G instead of the meet () and the join () operations. Also, we investigate properties of (F,G)-derivation on a lattice in details. Furthermore, we deĄne and study the notion of principal (F,G)-derivations as a particular class of (F,G)-derivations. As applications, we provide two representations of a given lattice in terms of its principal (F,G)-derivations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The notions of ideals and filters have studied in many algebraic (crisp) fuzzy structures and used to study their various properties, representations and characterizations. In addition to their theoretical roles, they have used in some areas of applied mathematics. In a recent paper, Arockiarani and Antony Crispin Sweety have generalized and studied these notions with respect to the concept of neutrosophic sets introduced by Smarandache to represent imprecise, incomplete and inconsistent information. In this article, we aim to deepen the study of these important notions on a given lattice in the neutrosophic setting. We show their various properties and characterizations, in particular, we pay attention to their characterizations based on of the lattice min and max operations. In addition, we study the notion of prime single-valued neutrosophic ideal (respectively, filter) as interesting kind and we discuss some its set-operations, complement and associate sets.
