Abstract
We promote a useful representation of fuzzy sets by ordinary sets, called the Cartesian representation. In particular, we show how the main structures related to a general type of concept lattices may be reduced using this representation to their ordinary counterparts. As a consequence of this representation, we obtain a simple proof of the basic theorem for this type of concept lattices.
