Properties of \(\text{max-}*\) fuzzy relation equations

Focus

Abstract

We extend the result of Zhang et al. (J Fuzzy Math 14:53, 2006), who discussed the finite fuzzy relation equations with max–min and max–prod composition. In this article, the \(\text{max-}*\) composition is used for wide family of operations \(*\). In particular, families of solutions of two relation equations are compared.

Keywords

Fuzzy relation max-* composition max-* system of equations Solution family Solution invariant matrices Reduced matrix Matrix equivalence class
