On fuzzy ideals in BCC-algebras (Q5951702)

The authors investigate the properties of fuzzy BCC-ideals in BCC-algebras and their images. They prove as a main theorem: Prop. 3.17: Every ascending chain of BCC-ideals of a BCC-algebra \(X\) terminates at finite steps if and only if the set of values of any fuzzy BCC-ideal in \(X\) is a well-ordered subset of \([0,1]\). They also construct an extension of a fuzzy BCC-ideal \(\mu\) of a given BCC-subalgebra \(S\) of \(X\) to a fuzzy BCC-ideal \(\overline \mu\) of \(X\) with the same image. This result, as they note, is obvious from Lemma 4.1 of \textit{D. S. Malik} and \textit{J. N. Mordeson}'s paper: ``Extensions of fuzzy subrings and fuzzy ideals'' [Fuzzy Sets Syst. 45, 245-251 (1992; Zbl 0763.13004)].
