(3, 2)-Fuzzy Sets and Their Applications to Topology and Optimal Choices

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to define the concept of (3, 2)-fuzzy sets and discuss their relationship with other kinds of fuzzy sets. We describe some of the basic set operations on (3, 2)-fuzzy sets. (3, 2)-Fuzzy sets can deal with more uncertain situations than Pythagorean and intuitionistic fuzzy sets because of their larger range of describing the membership grades. Furthermore, we familiarize the notion of (3, 2)-fuzzy topological space and discuss the master properties of (3, 2)-fuzzy continuous maps. Then, we introduce the concept of (3, 2)-fuzzy points and study some types of separation axioms in (3, 2)-fuzzy topological space. Moreover, we establish the idea of relation in (3, 2)-fuzzy set and present some properties. Ultimately, on the basis of academic performance, the decision-making approach of student placement is presented via the proposed (3, 2)-fuzzy relation to ascertain the suitability of colleges to applicants.
