Fuzzy functions: a fuzzy extension of the category SET and some related categories

2000

<p>In research Works where fuzzy sets are used, mostly certain usual functions are taken as morphisms. On the other hand, the aim of this paper is to fuzzify the concept of a function itself. Namely, a certain class of L-relations F : X x Y -> L is distinguished which could be considered as fuzzy functions from an L-valued set (X,Ex) to an L-valued set (Y,Ey). We study basic properties of these functions, consider some properties of the corresponding category of L-valued sets and fuzzy functions as well as briefly describe some categories related to algebra and topology with fuzzy functions in the role of morphisms.</p>

Algebraic Structures of Rough Sets in Representative Approximation Spaces

2003

Abstract In this paper a generalized notion of an approximation space is considered. By an approximation space we mean an ordered pair (U, C ), where U is a finite nonempty set and C is a covering of U. According to connections between rough sets and concepts we define two types of approximation operations. Hence we obtain two families of rough sets. We show that these families form lattices in special types of representative approximation spaces. The operations on rough sets defined in the above lattices are analogous to classical operations on sets.

Categories of lattice-valued sets as categories of arrows

2006

In this paper we introduce a category X(A) which is a generalization of the category of lattice-valued subsets of sets Set(JCPos) introduced by us earlier. We show the necessary and sufficient conditions for X(A) to be topological over XxA.

On Rough Sets in Topological Boolean Algebras

1994

We have focused on rough sets in topological Boolean algebras. Our main ideas on rough sets are taken from concepts of Pawlak [4] and certain generalizations of his constructions which were offered by Wiweger [7]. One of the most important results of this note is a characterization of the rough sets determined by regular open and regular closed elements.

Perturbations of surjective convolution operators

2002

Let μ 1 and μ 2 be (ultra)distributions with compact support which have disjoint singular supports. We assume that the convolution operator f → μ 1 *f is surjective when it acts on a space of functions or (ultra)distributions, and we investigate whether the perturbed convolution operator f→ (μ 1 + μ 2 ) * f is surjective. In particular we solve in the negative a question asked by Abramczuk in 1984.

On the points realizing the distance to a definable set

2011

Abstract We prove a definable/subanalytic version of a useful lemma, presumably due to John Nash, concerning the points realizing the Euclidean distance to an analytic submanifold of R n . We present a parameter version of the main result and we discuss the properties of the multifunction obtained.

Every triangle-free induced subgraph of the triangular lattice is(5m,2m)-choosable

2014

A graph G is (a,b)-choosable if for any color list of size a associated with each vertex, one can choose a subset of b colors such that adjacent vertices are colored with disjoint color sets. This paper proves that for any integer m>=1, every finite triangle-free induced subgraph of the triangular lattice is (5m,2m)-choosable.

Meir-Keeler Type Contractions for Tripled Fixed Points

2012

Abstract In 2011, Berinde and Borcut [6] introduced the notion of tripled fixed point in partially ordered metric spaces. In our paper, we give some new tripled fixed point theorems by using a generalization of Meir-Keeler contraction.

A Polynomial Quantum Query Lower Bound for the Set Equality Problem

2004

The set equality problem is to tell whether two sets A and B are equal or disjoint under the promise that one of these is the case. This problem is related to the Graph Isomorphism problem. It was an open problem to find any ω(1) query lower bound when sets A and B are given by quantum oracles. We will show that any error-bounded quantum query algorithm that solves the set equality problem must evaluate oracles \(\Omega(\sqrt[5]{\frac{n}{\ln n}})\) times, where n=|A|=|B|.

The Separable Complementation Property and Mrówka Compacta

2017

We study the separable complementation property for $C(K_{\cal A})$ spaces when $K_{\cal A}$ is the Mr\'owka compact associated to an almost disjoint family ${\cal A}$ of countable sets. In particular we prove that, if ${\cal A}$ is a  generalized ladder system,  then $C(K_{\cal A})$ has the separable complementation property ($SCP$ for short) if and only if it has the controlled version of this property. We also show that, when ${\cal A}$ is  a maximal generalized ladder system, the space $C(K_{\cal A})$ does not enjoy the $SCP$.
