Valverde, L.

On the structure of F-indistinguishability operators. (English) Zbl 0609.04002

Fuzzy Sets Syst. 17, 313-328 (1985).
The concept of F-indistinguishability operator is a generalization of the concept of equivalence relation by substituting the F-transitivity for the usual transitivity. It is proven that any F-indistinguishability operator on a set X is generated by a family of fuzzy subsets of X. This result allows the construction of F-indistinguishabilities in a more efficient way, and facilitates new applications of these relations.
The relationship between the F-indistinguishability operators and metrics is explored. The concepts of G-pseudometric as well as G-metric are defined. Fuzzy partitions are discussed from the point of view of F- indistinguishability operators.
