On types of fuzzy numbers and extension principles (Q1920331)

A real function \(f\) often is fuzzified into a fuzzy function \(F\) in such a way that the arguments of \(F\) become fuzzy numbers and its values are determined from \(f\) via the extension principle \(EP\). In general, \(EP\) depends on a \(t\)-norm \(T\). Restricting furthermore the input fuzzy numbers to symmetric \(LR\)-fuzzy numbers with \(L=R\), the fuzzification of \(f\) depends of the pair \((L,T)\). The author discusses the problem whether different such fuzzifications may yield the same fuzzy function \(F\).
