Fuzzy soft set theory applied to BCK/BCI-algebras

In the paper [P.K. Maji, R. Biswas, AR. Roy, Fuzzy soft sets, J. Fuzzy Math. 9 (3) (2001) 589-602], Maji et al. introduced the concept of fuzzy soft sets as a generalization of the standard soft sets, and presented an application of fuzzy soft sets in a decision making problem. The aim of this manuscript is to apply fuzzy soft set for dealing with several kinds of theories in BCK/BCI-algebras. The notions of fuzzy soft BCK/BCI-algebras, (closed) fuzzy soft ideals and fuzzy soft p-ideals are introduced, and related properties are investigated. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
