A characterization of triangular norm based tribes. (English) Zbl 0799.28013

Summary: We study collections of fuzzy sets which are closed under complementation and under countable products (interpreted as “fuzzy intersections”). We characterize them as certain spaces of functions measurable with respect to the \(\sigma\)-algebra of crisp elements. This solves the problem stated by R. Mesiar [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 177, No. 2, 633-640 (1993) and Tatra Mt. Math. Publ. 1, 105-123 (1992; Zbl 0790.60005)] and enables generalizations of results of D. Butnariu and E. P. Klement [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 162, No. 1, 111-143 (1991; Zbl 0751.60003)], E. P. Klement [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 85, 543-565 (1982; Zbl 0491.28003)], E. P. Klement, W. Schwyhla and R. Lowen [Fuzzy Sets Syst. 5, 21-30 (1981; Zbl 0447.28005)] and R. Mesiar (loc. cit.).
