Ultraproduct theorem and recursive properties of fuzzy logic

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Theory and Decision Library ((TDLB,volume 32))

Abstract

First-order fuzzy logic should be a formal basis of many considerations in fuzzy set theory and approximate reasoning. For example, the inference in the latter can be understood to be a sequence of inferences in a certain fuzzy theory given by a fuzzy set of special axioms. For various purposes, it may be useful to have an analogue of the famous Los' ultraproduct theorem also in fuzzy logic. We introduce elements of model theory for fuzzy logic and prove the ultraproduct theorem for it.
