Abstract
In this paper, the concept of multi-L-soft set is proposed. It is a generalization of multi-fuzzy soft set. Then relations between multi-L-soft sets and operations on the multi-L-soft sets are defined, furthermore, properties of the operations are discussed. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show validity of the multi-interval-valued fuzzy soft set in decision making problem.
