In a series of recent papers the first named author studied the compatibility of a fuzzy neighbourhood system in the sense of Lowen with various algebraic structures thus coming to the concepts of fuzzy neighbourhood groups, fuzzy neighbourhood rings, etc. In particular, he was interested in the problem whether there exists a minimal neighbourhood system compatible with the corresponding algebraic structure. The authors of the present paper study the problem of weakability and non-weakability of a fuzzy neighbourhood system in a certain class of fuzzy neighbourhood Abelian groups, rings and modules. (Given a family \(\mathcal F\) of fuzzy neighbourhood systems on a set \(X\) endowed with an algebraic structure, a system \(\Sigma \in \mathcal F\) is called non-weakable, if there does not exist a system \(\Sigma'\) strongly weaker than \(\Sigma\).) One of the main tools in this resaerch is the introduced notion of a locally inversely bounded fuzzy neighbourhood system in the class of fuzzy neighbourhood rings.
