It is a generalization of $L$-convex structures and $M$-fuzzifying convex structures. In our definition of $(L,M)$-fuzzy convex structures, each $L$-fuzzy subset can be regarded as an $L$-convex set to some degree. The notion of convexity preserving functions is also generalized to lattice-valued case. Moreover, under the framework of $(L,M)$-fuzzy convex structures, the concepts of quotient structures, substructures and products are presented and their fundamental properties are discussed. Finally, we create a functor $\\omega$ from $\\mathbf{MYCS}$ to $\\mathbf{LMCS}$ and show that there exists an adjunction between $\\mathbf{MYCS}$ and $\\mathbf{LMCS}$, where $\\mathbf{MYCS}$ and $\\mathbf{LMCS}$ denote the category of $M$-fuzzifying convex structures, and the category of $(L,M)$-fuzzy convex structures, respectively.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-12T13:07:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fuzzy convex structures", "fuzzifying convex structures", "quotient structures", "fundamental properties", "fuzzy subset" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
