The traditional first approach to fractional calculus is via the Riemann-Liouville differintegral $_{a}D_{x}^{k}$. The intent of this paper will be to create a space $K$, pair of maps $g: C^{\omega}(\mathbb{R}) \to K$ and $g': K \to…

Linear representations for a subclass of boolean symmetric functions selected by a parity condition are shown to constitute a generalization of the linear constraints on probabilities introduced by Boole. These linear constraints are…
Lukasiewicz logic is a "fuzzy" logic in which truth value can be real numbers in the unit interval. There are connectives for min, max, addition and complement (1-x). The "value" of a closed formula in a fuzzy (relational model) is defined…

The class of bounded variation $bv^F(u,v)$ of fuzzy numbers introduced by [8] has been investigated further with the help of the generalized weighted mean matrix $G(u,v)$. Imposing some restrictions on the matrix $G(u,v)$, we have…

Fault tree analysis is a vital method of assessing safety risks. It helps to identify potential causes of accidents, assess their likelihood and severity, and suggest preventive measures. Quantitative analysis of fault trees is often done…
From the more than two hundred partial orders for fuzzy numbers proposed in the literature, only a few are total. In this paper, we introduce the notion of admissible order for fuzzy numbers equipped with a partial order, i.e. a total order…
Variational and divergence symmetries are studied in this paper for linear equations of maximal symmetry in canonical form, and the associated first integrals are given in explicit form. All the main results obtained are formulated as…

Methods for analyzing or learning from "fuzzy data" have attracted increasing attention in recent years. In many cases, however, existing methods (for precise, non-fuzzy data) are extended to the fuzzy case in an ad-hoc manner, and without…

In the process of measuring objects with local self-similarity, such as satellite images or coastlines, we obtain a data set with both local self-similarity and uncertainty. To better interpolate such data sets, an interpolation function…
Variational (Rayleigh-Ritz) methods are applied to local quantum field theory. For scalar theories the wave functional is parametrized in the form of a superposition of Gaussians and the expectation value of the Hamiltonian is expressed in…
