Abstract

The concept of KM-algebras has been originated in 2019. KM-algebra is a generalization of some of the B-algebras such as BCK, BCI, BCH, BE, and BV and also d-algebras. KM-algebra serves two purposes in mathematics and computer science as follows: a tool for application in both fields and a strategy for creating the foundations. On the fuzziness of KM-algebras, an innovative perspective on fuzzy product KM-algebras as well as some related features is offered. Moreover, the notion of KMM-ideals is described and also initiated the concept of the KM-Cartesian product of fuzzy KM-algebras, and related outcomes are examined. Some of the innovative results in fuzzy KMM-ideals and KM-Cartesian product of fuzzy KM-subalgebras are analyzed, and some are as follows: arbitrary intersection of fuzzy KMM-ideals is again a fuzzy KMM-ideal, order reversing holds true in every KMM-ideal, every fuzzy KM-subalgebra is a fuzzy KMM-ideal, and KM-Cartesian product of two fuzzy KM-subalgebras is again a fuzzy KM-subalgebra.

1. Introduction

Ansari et al. [1, 2], Hong et al. [3], Qing-ping Hu [4], and Hwang et al. [5] researched a new class of algebra called BCH-algebras and analyzed that the class of BCI-algebras is a proper subclass of BCH-algebras. BCK-algebra was first introduced in 1966, thanks to the mathematicians Imai and Iséki [6] and has since been used in a variety of fields in mathematics, such as Topology, Probability theory, Functional Analysis, and Group theory. BCI-algebras are a generalization of BCK-algebras and were introduced by Iséki [7] in 1966.

Kalaiarasi et al. [8] introduced fuzzy sets in KM-algebras. Kim and Kim [9, 10] introduced the idea of BG-algebras which is a speculation of B-algebras. In 2007, Kim and Kim [11] introduced another generalized BCK-algebras, namely, BE-algebras. Till now, so many B-algebras are developed by the researchers; refer [1214]. In 2018, Mostafa and Cagman [15, 16] developed the concept of fuzzy dot structure in hyper KU-ideals. After BCK/BCI-algebras were introduced, many researchers developed algebraic structures which are the generalization of BCK/BCI-algebras. In 1999, Neggers and Kim [1719] proposed a new class of algebraic structure, d-algebra, which is a generalization of BCK/BCI/B-algebras. In 2010, Saeid [20] presented fuzzy dot BCK/BCI-algebras. And in 2017, BI-algebras had been developed by Saei et al. [21]. In 2007, BF-algebras were developed by Walendziak. In 2021, Selvam and Priya [22] developed the idea of fuzzy dot Z-ideals of Z-algebras by applying the idea of fuzzification of sets to Z-algebras. In 2014, Senapati et al. [23] presented fuzzy dot BG-algebras. In 2014, Senapati et al. [24] developed fuzzy dot subalgebras and ideals of B-algebras. In 2007, BF-algebras were developed by Walendziak [25] and all these algebras are generalizations of BCK/BCI-algebras.

One of the distinct parts of the set theories is fuzzy set and crisp set. In which, fuzzy set allows the elements to be included partially in the set whereas in a crisp set, the elements either belong to the set or not. Zadeh [26] introduced the concept of fuzzy sets in 1965. Nowadays, there has been a vast development in fuzzy set. Many research works in various fields have been fuzzified. Many researchers who are working in the field of algebraic structures in mathematics have applied fuzzy sets, and the researchers are doing a tremendous job on this. The ideal hypothesis plays a crucial role in the ongoing advancement of KM-algebras (KM named after Kalaiarasi and Mani). Fuzzy product subalgebras are fascinating logarithmic constructions and follow many intriguing outcomes. Additionally, fuzzy ideals are arrived at themes in any logarithmic design. Fuzzy product goals are helpful in numerical designs. Supposedly, no works are accessible on fuzzy product subalgebras of KM-algebras. The old style algebras are utilized to plan consistent circuits in PCs. Consequently, we persuaded to foster these hypotheses for KM-algebras.

Set theory supports one of the motivations. Among the several operations in set theory, there are three most vital and essential operations. The union, intersection, and set difference of two sets are performed using these fundamental operations. We get the concept of Boolean algebra if we regard these three operations and their qualities as a development of those three operations and their properties. The notion of Distributive Lattice is obtained by considering the union and intersection as a general algebra. Furthermore, we get the notions of an upper semilattice and a lower semilattice when we explore the concepts of union and intersection. Until now, properties of the set union, set intersection, set difference, and the set symmetric difference have been used to introduce numerous algebras. KM-algebras are one of the different algebra, highlighting the properties of the set theory such as the set union, the set intersection, and the set symmetric difference. The class of KM-algebras consists of a combination of four axioms of which two is from BCI-algebras, one from B-algebras and in addition another axiom has been introduced. KM-algebra is a new class of algebra, and it motivates the algebraist to establish more interesting results and uses.

To do so, the rest of the article is organized as follows. In section 2, definition of KM-algebra, KMM-ideal, and fuzzy KM-subalgebras with some examples has been given, and in section 3, we characterized fuzzy product subalgebras of KM-algebras and explored a great deal of properties. In section 4, definition of fuzzy KMM-ideal with examples and some of its properties has been discussed. In section 5, a very interesting topic KM-Cartesian product of KM-algebras with some theorems has been presented. A reiteration of every single required definition and properties is given in the rest of this article.

Throughout this research paper, we consider ‘’ as the binary operation of KM-algebras.

2. Preliminaries

Some preliminary definitions for KM-algebra, KMM-ideal, and fuzzy KM-subalgebras have been given in this section.

Definition 1 (see [8]). Let K be a set, together with a binary operation ‘’ and a constant ‘0’. Then, K = (K, 0) is called a KM-algebra [8] satisfying the following conditions:(i)(KM1) km=0 if k=m(ii)(KM2) km=k if m=0(iii)(KM3) (km)n=n(k)(iv)(KM4) km=0 and mk=0 imply k=m, for all

Example 1. Let be a set with the binary operation and a constant with Table 1.
Here, in this example, the constant ‘0’ in the definition given is ‘.(i)(KM1)  =  if k = m. Here, appears in the diagonal from upper left to lower right. The first condition KM1 is true in all the three cases.(ii)(KM2)  = k if m = . From the first row of Table 1, KM2 is true.(iii)(KM3) ()n = n(), for all . From Table 2, the condition for is satisfied.(iv)(KM4) km= and mk= imply k= m, for all .Therefore, the condition KM4 is true. (M, ) is a KM-algebra.

Definition 2 (see [8]). Let K be a KM-algebra and be a subset of K which is nonempty. Then, we call as the KMM-ideal [8] of K if the following conditions are satisfied:(1)(2)

Thus, M satisfies the condition and hence a fuzzy product KM-subalgebra. If , then B is a symmetric fuzzy matrix, and the elements of the matrix belong to fuzzy unit interval [0,1].(2)Let us consider the KM-algebra , having the following Cayley table. Here, the constant ‘0’ is ‘.’ From Table 6, clearly is a KM-algebra.(N, ) is a KM-algebra.Define and .In Table 7, product of and has be given.The condition has been checked. In Table 8, the condition for fuzzy product KM-subalgebras is verified. Then, N satisfies the conditions of the fuzzy product KM-subalgebras.(3)Define andIt is clear that .Therefore, K is a fuzzy product KM-subalgebra.(4)Also, we shall defineThis does not satisfy . Therefore, K is not a fuzzy product KM-subalgebra.
