ABSTRACT
Soft set theory has recently gained significance for finding rational and logical solutions to various real-life problems, which involve uncertainty, impreciseness and vagueness. In this paper, we introduced an algorithm to find permutation algebras using soft topological space. Moreover, this class of permutation algebras is called even (odd) permutation algebras if its permutation is even (odd). Furthermore, new concepts in permutation algebras are investigated such as splittable permutation algebra and ambivalent permutation algebra. Furthermore, several examples are given to illustrate the concepts introduced in this paper.
1. Introduction
The concept of soft sets is a novel notion was introduced by Molodtsov [Citation1]. Next, Shabir and Naz [Citation2] introduced the notion of soft topological spaces. Some notions of this concept with its applications fundamental concepts of fuzzy soft topology and Intuitionistic fuzzy soft topology are studied by many mathematicians see the following references [Citation3–15]. BCK-algebra as a class of abstract algebras is introduced by Imai and Iseki [Citation16,Citation17]. Next, the concept of d-algebras, which is another useful generalization of BCK-algebras, is introduced (see refs [Citation18–20]). Also, the notion of d*-algebras is investigated [Citation21]. After then, the concepts of ρ-algebras and -ideals are introduced and studied [Citation22]. In 2009, the concept of soft d-algebras is introduced (see Jun et al. [Citation23]). Also, some extensions using power set are introduced such as soft ρ-algebra and soft edge ρ-algebra of the power set [Citation24], soft BCL-algebras of the power set [Citation25] and soft BCH-algebra of the power set [Citation26]. Next, the notion of
-fuzzy d-algebra is given [Citation27]. In this paper, we introduced an algorithm to find permutation algebras using soft topological space. Moreover, this class of permutation algebras is called even (odd) permutation algebras if its permutation is even (odd). Furthermore, new concepts in permutation algebras are investigated such as splittable permutation algebra and ambivalent permutation algebra. Furthermore, several examples are given to illustrate the concepts and introduced in this paper.
