Abstract

This chapter considers fuzzy implications as a special case of fuzzy relations in [0,1]. We examine compositions of fuzzy implications based on a binary operation ∗ and discuss the dependencies between algebraic properties of the operation ∗ and the induced sup − ∗ composition. Under some simple assumptions the sup − ∗ composition of fuzzy implications gives also a fuzzy implication. This leads to an examination of ordered groupoids and ordered semigroups of fuzzy implications. Contrapositive and invariant fuzzy implications are also considered.
