A Contribution to the Theory of Soft Sets via Generalized Relaxed Operations

Abstract

Soft set theory has evolved to provide a set of valuable tools for dealing with ambiguity and uncertainty in a variety of data structures related to real-world challenges. A soft set is characterized via a multivalued function of a set of parameters with certain conditions. In this study, we relax some conditions on the set of parameters and generalize some basic concepts in soft set theory. Specifically, we introduce generalized finite relaxed soft equality and generalized finite relaxed soft unions and intersections. The new operations offer a great improvement in the theory of soft sets in the sense of proper generalization and applicability.
