In this paper, a criterion for the convex fuzzy mapping is obtained under the condition of upper and lower semicontinuity, respectively. An upper (lower) semicontinuous fuzzy mapping is proved, which convexity is equivalent to weak convexity or B-vexity satisfying a special condition.

β¦ Synopsis
The concept of upper and lower semicontinuity of fuzzy mappings introduced by Bao and Wu [Y.E. Bao, C.X. Wu, Convexity and semicontinuity of fuzzy mappings, Comput. Math. Appl., 51 (2006) 1809-1816] is redefined by using the concept of parameterized triples of fuzzy numbers. On the basis of the linear ordering of fuzzy numbers proposed by Goetschel and Voxman [R. Goetschel, W. Voxman, Elementary fuzzy calculus, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 18], we prove that an upper semicontinuous fuzzy mapping attains a maximum (with respect to this linear ordering) on a nonempty closed and bounded subset of the n-dimensional Euclidean space R n , and that a lower semicontinuous fuzzy mapping attains a minimum (with respect to this linear ordering) on a nonempty closed and bounded subset of R n .

Since almost all practical problems are fuzzy and approximate, fuzzy decision making becomes one of the most important practical approaches. One of the important aspects for formulating and for solving fuzzy decision problems is the concept of convexity. In this paper, we investigate the interrelati
Several characterizations about preinvex fuzzy mapping are obtained in this paper. Firstly, an equivalent condition of preinvex fuzzy mapping is established under certain conditions. Furthermore, the necessary and sufficient conditions for differentiable and twice differentiable preinvex fuzzy mappi
