Introduction

Worldwide, there has been a rapid growth in the interest of fuzzy set theory and its applications from the past several years. Evidence of this can be found in the increasing number of high-quality research articles on fuzzy sets and related topics that have been published in a variety of international journals, symposia, workshops, and international conferences held every year. It seems 1

that the fuzzy set theory deals with the applications of fuzzy technology in information processing. The information processing is already important and it will certainly increase in importance in the future. Granular computing refers to the representation of information in the form of aggregates, called granules. If granules are modeled as fuzzy sets, then fuzzy logics are used. This new computing methodology has been considered by Brageila and Pedrycz in [4]. A presentation of updated trends in fuzzy set theory and its applications has been considered by Pedrycz and Gomide in [23]. A systematic exposition of fuzzy semigroups by Mordeson, Malik and Kuroki appeared in [19], where one can …nd theoritical results on fuzzy semigroups and their use in fuzzy coding, fuzzy …nite state machines and fuzzy languages. The monograph by Mordeson and Malik [20] deals with the applications of fuzzy approach to the concepts of automata and formal languages. The notion of quasi-ideals play an important role in the study of ring theory, semiring theory, semigroup theory and ordered semigroup theory etc. for a detail study of quasi-ideals in rings and semigroups, we refer the reader to [22]. The fuzzy subsets in semigroups were …rst studied by Kuroki [16-18] and Ahsan [1] et al. The fuzzy quasi-ideals in semigroups were studied in [18] and [1], where the basic properties of semigroups in terms of fuzzy quasi-ideals are given. The concept of a quasi-ideal in rings and semigroups was studied by Stienfeld in [22], and Kehayopulu extended the concept of quasi-ideals in ordered semigroups S as a non-empty subset Q of S such that [8]: (1) (QS] \ (SQ] Q and (2) If a 2 Q and S 3 b a then b 2 Q. For a detail study of ideal theory and fuzzy ideal theory of ordered semigroups we refer the reader to [10-14] and [7-9] and [15]. In this paper, we characterize regular, left and right simple ordered semigroups and completely regular ordered semigroups. We prove that an ordered semigroup S is regular, left and right simple if and only if every fuzzy quasiideal of S is a constant function. We also prove that S is completely regular if and only if for every fuzzy quasi-ideal f of S we have f (a) = f (a2 ) for every a 2 S. We de…ne semiprime fuzzy quasi-ideal of ordered semigroups and prove that an ordered semigroup S is completely regular if and only if every fuzzy quasi-ideal f of S is semiprime. Next we characterize semilattices of left and right simple ordered semigroups in terms of fuzzy quasi-ideals of S. We prove that an ordered semigroup S is a semilattice of left and right simple ordered semigroups if and only if for every fuzzy quasi-ideal f of S we have, f (a) = f (a2 ) and f (ab) = f (ba), for all a; b 2 S. In the last of this paper, we discuss ordered semigroups having the property a a2 for all a 2 S and prove that an ordered semigroup S (having the property a a2 8a 2 S) is a semilattice of left and right simple ordered semigroups if and only if for every fuzzy quasi-ideal f of S we have f (ab) = f (ba), for all a; b 2 S.

Some Basic Results and De…nitions

In this section, we give some basic de…nitions and results, which are necessary for the subsequent sections.

By an ordered semigroup we mean a structure (S; ; ) such that: (OS1) (S; ) is a semigroup. (OS2) (S; ) is a poset. (OS3) (8a; b; x 2 S)(a b ! ax bx and xa xb): Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup and ; = 6 A S, denote (A] := ft 2 Sjt For A; B

h for some h 2 Ag

S, denote AB = fabja 2 A; b 2 Bg

For a 2 S, we write (a] instead of (fag]. Let S be an ordered semigroup and A; B S. Then A (A], (A](B] (AB], ((A]] = (A] and ((A](B]] (AB](see [8]). Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup, ; 6= A S. Then A is called a subsemigroup of S if A2 A (see [9]). Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup. ; 6= A S is called a right (resp. lef t) ideal (see [13]) of S if: (1) AS A (resp. SA A) and (2) If a 2 A and S 3 b a, then b 2 A. If A is both a right and a left ideal of S; then it is called an ideal of S. A subsemigroup B of S is called a bi-ideal (see [9]) of S if: (1) BSB B and (2) If a 2 B, S 3 b a, then b 2 B. Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup. By a fuzzy subset f of S, we mean a function f : S ! [0; 1] : Let S be an ordered semigroup. A fuzzy subset f of S is called a fuzzy left (resp. right) ideal of S if: (1) (8x; y 2 S)(x y ! f (x) f (y)) and (2) (8x; y 2 S)(f (xy) f (y) (resp. f (xy) f (x)): If f is both a fuzzy left and a fuzzy right ideal of S; then it is called a fuzzy ideal of S (see [7]). Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup and ; = 6 A S. The characterisitic function fA of A is given by: fA : S ! [0; 1]; a 7 ! fA (a) := S

1 if a 2 A, 0 if a 2 = A.

Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup and a 2 S, denote Aa := f(y; z) 2 Sja yzg (see [8]). For two fuzzy subsets f and g of S, de…ne

We denote by F (S) (as given in [8]) the set of all fuzzy subsets of S. We de…ne order relation " " on F (S) as follows: f

g if and only if f (x)

g(x) for all x 2 S

Then (F (S); ; ) is an ordered semigroup (see [8]). For a nonempty family of fuzzy subsets ffi gi2I , of an ordered semigroup S, _ ^ the fuzzy subsets fi and fi of S are de…ned as follows: i2I

For an ordered semigroup S, the fuzzy subsets “0”and “1”of S are de…ned as follows (see [8]): 0 : S ! [0; 1]; x 7 ! 0(x) := 0, 1 : S ! [0; 1]; x 7 ! 1(x) := 1. Clearly, the fuzzy subset “0”(resp. “1”) of S is the least (resp. the greatest) element of the ordered set (F (S); ): The fuzzy subset “0” is the zero element of (F (S); ; ) (that is, f 0 = 0 f = 0 and 0 f for every f 2 F (S)):

Fuzzy quasi-ideals

In this section we characterize quasi-ideals of ordered semigroups by the properties of their level subsets.

3.1

Proposition (cf. [8]).

If (S; ; ) is an ordered semigroup and A; B (1) A B if and only if fA fB , (2) fA ^ fB = fA\B ; (3) fA fB = f(AB] :

3.2

S. Then

Lemma

Let S be an ordered semigroup. Then every quasi-ideal of S is a subsemigroup of S.

3.3

Lemma (cf. [8]).

An ordered semigroup (S; ; ) is regular if and only if for right ideal A and every left ideal B of S, we have A \ B = (AB]: 4

3.4

De…nition (cf. [8]).

Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup. A fuzzy subset f of S is called a fuzzy quasi-ideal of S if: (1) (f 1) ^ (1 f ) f; (2) (8x; y 2 S)(x y ! f (x) f (y)).

3.5

De…nition (cf. [9]).

Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup. A fuzzy subset f of S is called a fuzzy bi-ideal of S if: (1) (8x; y 2 S)(f (xy) minff (x); f (y)g); (2) (8x; y; z 2 S)(f (xyz) min ff (x); f (z)g). (3) (8x; y 2 S)(x y ! f (x) f (y)):

3.6

Lemma (cf. [7-9]).

Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroups and ; = 6 A S. Then A is a left (resp. right, bi- and quasi-) ideal of S if and only if the characteristic function fA of A is a fuzzy left (resp. right, bi- and quasi-) ideal of S. Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup and t 2 (0; 1] then the set U (f ; t) := fx 2 Sjf (x)

tg;

is called a level subset of f .

3.7

Theorem

Let (S; ; ) be an ordered semigroup and f a fuzzy subset of S. Then (8t 2 (0; 1]U (f ; t) 6= ; is a quasi-ideal if and only if f is a fuzzy quasi-ideal ) Proof. =) : Assume that for every t 2 (0; 1] such that U (f ; t) 6= ; the set U (f ; t) is a quasi-ideal of S. Let x; y 2 S, x y be such that f (x) < f (y). Then there exists t 2 (0; 1) such that f (x) < t f (y), then y 2 U (f ; t) but x2 = U (f ; t). This is a contradiction. Hence f (x) f (y) for all x y. Suppose that there exists x 2 S such that f (x)

((f

1) ^ (1 f ))(x);

then there exists t 2 (0; 1] such that f (x) < t < ((f and hence (f _

1) ^ (1 f ))(x) = min[(f

1)(x); (1 f )(x)]:

1)(x) > t and (1 f )(x) > t. Then _ minff (p); 1(q)g > t and minf1(p); f (q)g > t: (p;q)2Ax

This implies that there exist b; c; d; e 2 S with (b; c) 2 Ax and (d; e) 2 Ax such that f (b) > t and f (e) > t. Then b; e 2 U (f ; t) and so bc 2 U (f ; t)S and de 2 SU (f ; t): Hence x 2 (U (f ; t)S] and x 2 (SU (f ; t)] ! x 2 (U (f ; t)S] \ (SU (f ; t)]: By hypothesis, (U (f ; t)S] \ (SU (f ; t)] U (f ; t) and so x 2 U (f ; t): Then f (x) t: This is a contradiction. Thus f (x) ((f 1) ^ (1 f ))(x): (= : Assume that f is a fuzzy quasi-ideal of S and t 2 (0; 1] such that U (f ; t) 6= ;. Let x; y 2 S be such that x y and y 2 U (f ; t). Then f (y) t. Since x y ! f (x) f (y) we have f (x) t and so x 2 U (f ; t). Suppose that x 2 S be such that x 2 (U (f ; t)S] \ (SU (f ; t)]: Then x 2 0 0 (U (f ; t)S] and x 2 (SU (f ; t)] and we have x yz and x y z for some 0 0 0 0 y; z 2 U (f ; t) and z; y 2 S. Then (y; z) 2 Ax and (y ; z ) 2 Ax . Since Ax 6= ;; by hypothesis f (x)

Example

Let S = fa; b; c; d; f g be an ordered table a a a b a c a d a f a

semigroup with the following multiplication b a b f b f

c a a c d a

d a d c d c

f a a f b a

We de…ne the order relation " " as follows: := f(a; a); (a; b); (a; c); (a; d); (a; f ); (b; b); (c; c); (d; d); (f; f )g: Quasi-ideals of S are: fag; fa; bg; fa; cg; fa; dg; fa; f g; fa; b; dg; fa; c; dg; fa; b; f g; fa; c; f g and S (see [11]). 6

De…ne f : S ! [0; 1] by f (a) = 0:8; Then

f (b) = 0:7;

f (d) = 0:6;

f (c) = f (f ) = 0:5:

8 S if t 2 (0; 0:5] > > > > < fa; b; dg if t 2 (0:5; 0:6] fa; bg if t 2 (0:6; 0:7] U (f ; t) := > > fag if t 2 (0:7; 0:8] > > : ; if t 2 (0:8; 1]

Then U (f ; t) is a quasi-ideal and by Theorem 3.7, f is a fuzzy quasi-ideal of S.

3.9

Lemma

Every quasi-ideal of an ordered semigroup (S; ; ) is a bi-ideal of S.

3.10

Lemma

Every fuzzy quasi-ideal of an ordered semigroup S is a fuzzy bi-ideal of S. Proof. Let f be a fuzzy quasi-ideal of S. Let x; y 2 S. Then xy = x(y) and we have (x; y) 2 Axy . Since Axy 6= ;, we have f (xy)

((f 1) ^ (1 f ))(xy) = min[(f 1)(xy); (1 f )(xy)] 2 _ minff (p); 1(q)g; = min 4 (p;q)2Axy

_

(p1 ;q1 )2Axy

min[minff (x); 1(y)g; minf1(x); f (y)g] = min[minff (x); 1g; minf1; f (y)g] = min[f (x); f (y)]:

minf1(p1 ); f (q1 )g5

Let x; y; z 2 S. Then (xy)z = x(yz) and we have (xy; z); (x; yz) 2 Axyz . Since Axyz 6= ;; we have f (xyz)

((f 1) ^ (1 f ))(xyz) = min[(f 1)(xyz); (1 f )(xyz)] 2 _ = min 4 minff (p); 1(q)g; (p;q)2Axyz

_

(p1 ;q1 )2Axyz

min[minff (x); 1(yz)g; minf1(xy); f (z)g] = min[minff (x); 1g; minf1; f (z)g] = min[f (x); f (z)]:

Let x; y 2 S be such that x y. Then f (x) quasi-ideal of S. Thus f is a fuzzy bi-ideal of S. 7

minf1(p1 ); f (q1 )g5

The converse of Lemma 3.10, is not true in general.

a a a a a

b a a a a

Then fa; dg is a bi-ideal of S but not a quasi-ideal of S. De…ne f : S ! [0; 1] f (a) = f (d) = 0:7; Then U (f ; t) :=
