Summary: | We establish, by means of a large class of
continuous t-representable intuitionistic fuzzy t-conorms, a factorization of an intuitionistic fuzzy relation (IFR) into a
unique indifference component and a family of regular strict components. This result generalizes a previous factorization
obtained by Dimitrov (2002) with the (max,min)
intuitionistic fuzzy t-conorm. We provide, for a continuous
t-representable intuitionistic fuzzy t-norm 𝒯, a characterization of the 𝒯-transitivity of an IFR. This enables us to determine necessary and sufficient conditions on a
𝒯-transitive IFR 𝑅 under which a strict component of
𝑅 satisfies pos-transitivity and negative transitivity. |
