Hyperplithogenic Cubic Set And Superhyperplithogenic Cubic Set, Florentin Smarandache 2025 University of New Mexico

Hyperplithogenic Cubic Set And Superhyperplithogenic Cubic Set, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Concepts such as Fuzzy Sets [23, 47], Neutrosophic Sets [32, 33], and Plithogenic Sets [35] have been extensively studied for addressing uncertainty, with diverse applications across numerous fields. Building on the Plithogenic Set, the HyperPlithogenic Set and SuperHyperPlithogenic Set have also gained recognition [15]. A Plithogenic Cubic Set integrates interval-valued and single-valued fuzzy memberships, augmented by multiattribute aggregation using plithogenic structures. This paper defines the HyperPlithogenic Cubic Set and SuperHyperPlithogenic Cubic Set and explores related concepts such as the HyperPlithogenic Fuzzy Cubic Set, HyperPlithogenic Intuitionistic Fuzzy Cubic Set, and HyperPlithogenic Neutrosophic Cubic Set.

Concepts such as Fuzzy Sets [28,57],Neutrosophic Sets [42,44], and Plithogenic Sets [48] have been extensively studied to address uncertainty, finding diverse applications across various fields. The Soft Set provides a framework that associates each parameter with subsets of a universal set, enabling flexible approximations [31]. The TreeSoft Set extends the Soft Set by introducing hierarchical, tree-structured parameters, allowing for multi-level data representation [53]. In this paper, we revisit the concept of the Neutrosophic TreeSoft Set, which has been discussed in other studies [8, 34]. Additionally, we propose and examine the Neutrosophic TreeSoft Expert Set by incorporating the framework of the …

Quantified Neutrosophic Set (Qtns)-Based Mcdm Algorithms For Sustainable Material Selection For Anti-Microbial Bio-Fabricated Textile Manufacturing, Muhammad Saeed, Neha Andaleeb Khalid, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

This paper proposes a modified structure for the neutrosophic set called the Quantified Neutrosophic Set (QtNS) with a parameterized setting. Unlike conventional approaches, the QtNS provides a quantified environment for the indeterminacy by its dependence on truthness and falsity components. This innovative approach quantifies the uncertainty and improves the assessment process via expert-guided opinions, customising it according to the specific situations in real-world decision-making scenarios. Some QtNS operations along with useful characteristics are addressed. Furthermore, two algorithms, QtNSUI and QtNSAO, are developed for the proposed operations of union, intersection, AND, and OR based on QtNS. In the world of sustainable …

Reconsideration Of Neutrosophic Social Science And Neutrosophic Phenomenology With Non-Classical Logic, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache 2025 University of New Mexico

Reconsideration Of Neutrosophic Social Science And Neutrosophic Phenomenology With Non-Classical Logic, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Body-Mind-Soul-Spirit Fluidity is a concept rooted in psychology and phenomenology, offering significant insights into human decision-making and well-being. Similarly, in social analysis and social sciences, frameworks such as PDCA, DMAIC, SWOT, and OODA have been established to enable structured evaluation and effective p roblem-solving. Furthermore, in phenomenology and social sciences, various logical systems have been developed to address specific objectives and practical applications. This paper extends these concepts using the Neutrosophic theory, revisiting their mathematical definitions and exploring their properties. The Neutrosophic Set, an extension of the Fuzzy Set, is a highly flexible framework that has been widely studied in …


Abstractions Of The Game “Set”, Martin Grant 2025 San Jose State University

Abstractions Of The Game “Set”, Martin Grant

Master's Projects

Each card in the game of SET can be represented as a point in Z43, where Z3 is the f ield of 3 elements; an in-game position without any SETs can be represented as a cap set. We find the largest cap sets in Zn 3 for n ≤ 4 and prove their uniqueness. Then, we provide more insight into Ellenberg and Gijswijt’s proof of upper bound for the maximum size of cap set in Fnq, where Fq is the field of q elements, which they find to be o(cn …

New Operation Defined Over Dual-Hesitant Fuzzy Set And Its Application In Diagnostics In Medicine, Manar Mohamed Omran, Reham Abdel-Aziz Abo-Khadra

Journal of Engineering Research

In recent decades, several types of sets, such as fuzzy sets, interval-valued fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets, type 2 fuzzy sets, type n fuzzy sets, and hesitant fuzzy sets, have been introduced and investigated widely. In this paper, we propose dual hesitant fuzzy sets (DHFSs), which encompass fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy sets, and fuzzy multi-sets as special cases. Then we investigate the basic operations and properties of DHFSs. We also discuss the relationships among the sets mentioned above, and then propose an extension principle of DHFSs. Additionally, we give an example to illustrate …

Sigma_N-Correct Forcing Axioms, Benjamin P. Goodman 2024 CUNY Graduate Center

Sigma_N-Correct Forcing Axioms, Benjamin P. Goodman

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

I introduce a new family of axioms extending ZFC set theory, the Sigma_n-correct forcing axioms. These assert roughly that whenever a forcing name a' can be forced by a poset in some forcing class Gamma to have some Sigma_n property phi which is provably preserved by all further forcing in Gamma, then a' reflects to some small name such that there is already in V a filter which interprets that small name so that phi holds. Sigma_1-correct forcing axioms turn out to be equivalent to classical forcing axioms, while Sigma_2-correct forcing axioms for Sigma_2-definable forcing classes are consistent relative to …


Largeness And Accessibility Of Sparse Sets, Oscar Quester 2024 Bridgewater State University

Largeness And Accessibility Of Sparse Sets, Oscar Quester

Honors Program Theses and Projects

One of the main goals in the study of Ramsey Theory is to find “order” in seemingly “random” structures. For example, Van der Waerden’s Theorem tells us that given any r-coloring of the positive integers, there will exist arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic progressions. The theorem places no requirement on the gap (common difference), d, of the arithmetic progression – it can be any natural number. With this in mind, we ask if we are still guaranteed arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic progressions when we restrict the possible values of d to some subset D ⊆ N. We also ask a similar …


Fundamental Computational Problems And Algorithms For Superhypergraphs, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache 2024 University of New Mexico

Fundamental Computational Problems And Algorithms For Superhypergraphs, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Hypergraphs extend traditional graphs by allowing edges (known as hyperedges) to connect more than two vertices, rather than just pairs. This paper explores fundamental problems and algorithms in the context of SuperHypergraphs, an advanced extension of hypergraphs enabling modeling of hierarchical and complex relationships. Topics covered include constructing SuperHyperGraphs, recognizing SuperHyperTrees, and computing SuperHyperTree-width. We address a range of optimization problems, such as the SuperHy-pergraph Partition Problem, Reachability, Minimum Spanning SuperHypertree, and Single-Source Shortest Path. Furthermore, adaptations of classical problems like the Traveling Salesman Problem, Chinese Postman Problem, and Longest Simple Path Problem are presented in the SuperHypergraph framework.


Survey Of Planar And Outerplanar Graphs In Fuzzy And Neutrosophic Graphs, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache 2024 University of New Mexico

Survey Of Planar And Outerplanar Graphs In Fuzzy And Neutrosophic Graphs, Takaaki Fujita, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

As many readers may know, graph theory is a fundamental branch of mathematics that explores networks made up of nodes and edges, focusing on their paths, structures, and properties [196]. A planar graph is one that can be drawn on a plane without any edges intersecting, ensuring planarity. Outerplanar graphs, a subset of planar graphs, have all their vertices located on the boundary of the outer face in their planar embedding. In recent years, outerplanar graphs have been formally defined within the context of fuzzy graphs. To capture uncertain parameters and concepts, various graphs such as fuzzy, neutrosophic, Turiyam, and …

The field of neutrosophic set theory and its applications has been rapidly expanding, particularly since the introduction of the journal "Neutrosophic Sets and Systems." New theories, techniques, and algorithms are being developed at a very high rate. One of the most notable trends in neutrosophic theory is its hybridization with other set theories such as rough set theory, bipolar set theory, soft set theory, hesitant fuzzy set theory, and more. Various hybrid structures like rough neutrosophic sets, neutrosophic soft set, single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy sets, among others, have been proposed in a short period. Neutrosophic sets have proven to …
