Fuzzy numbers, and more generally linguistic values, are approximate assessments, given by experts and accepted by decision-makers when obtaining more accurate values is impossible or unnecessary. To simplify the task of representing and handling fuzzy numbers, several authors have introduced real i

โฆ Synopsis
The representation of multiplication operation on fuzzy numbers is very useful and important in the fuzzy system such as the fuzzy decision making. In this paper, we propose a new arithmetical principle and a new arithmetical method for the arithmetical operations on fuzzy numbers. The new arithmetical principle is the L-'-Rml inverse function arithmetic principle. Based on the L-'-R-' inverse function arithmetic principle, it is easy to interpret the multiplication operation with the membership functions of fuzzy numbers. The new arithmetical method is the graded multiple integrals representation method. Based on the graded multiple integrals representation method, it is easy to compute the canonical representation of multiplication operation on fuzzy numbers. Finally, the canonical representation is applied to a numerical example of fuzzy decision.

In this paper, we introduce the definitions of the possibilistic mean, variance and covariance of multiplication of fuzzy numbers, and show some properties of these definitions. Then, we apply these definitions to build the possibilistic models of portfolio selection under the situations involving u
In this paper, a new kind of convergence, w-s convergence is introduced for certain type of fuzzy numbers taking values in separable reflexive Banach spaces. The convergence theorem of random fuzzy number integrals in the w-s sense is given and a condition, under which a fuzzy number function can be
Triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are commonly used in many applications. It is well known that the operators used for the non-linear operations such as multiplication, division, and inverse are approximations to the actual operators. It is also commonly assumed that the error introduced by t
