A novel fuzzy structure: infra-fuzzy topological spaces (Q2138185): Difference between revisions

Summary: Obtaining a weaker condition that preserves some inspired topological properties is always desirable. As a result, we introduce the concept of infra-fuzzy topology, which is a subset family that degrades the concept of fuzzy topology by omitting the condition of closedness under arbitrary unions. Fundamental properties of infra-fuzzy topological spaces are investigated, including infra-fuzzy open and infra-fuzzy closed sets, infra-fuzzy interior and infra-fuzzy closure operators, and the infra-fuzzy boundary of a fuzzy set. It is not possible to expect the latter concepts to have properties identical to those in ordinary fuzzy topological spaces. More precisely, the infra-fuzzy interior of a set need not be infra-fuzzy open, and the infra-fuzzy closure and boundary of a set may not be infra-fuzzy closed. Then, employing infra-fuzzy neighborhood systems, infra-fuzzy Q-neighborhood systems, the basis of infra-fuzzy topology, and infra-fuzzy relative topology, we propose several approaches for generating infra-fuzzy topologies. Finally, we define the notions of continuity, openness, closedness, and homeomorphism of mappings in the context of infra fuzziness and investigate some of their properties and characterizations. We show that the usual characterization of earlier notions in the infra-fuzzy structure is incorrect. We demonstrate that the family of all infra-fuzzy homeomorphisms on an infra-fuzzy topological space forms a group under mappings composition. We finish this work by proving that each infra-fuzzy homeomorphism between two infra-fuzzy topological spaces produces an isomorphism on groups of infra-fuzzy homeomorphisms of the corresponding spaces.
