ABSTRACT
In this paper, we study α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras whose truth degrees are in a complete Heyting algebra. We provide several characterizations for fuzzy ideals to be an α-fuzzy ideal. One of the key contributions of this manuscript is the investigation of the smallest α-fuzzy ideal containing a given fuzzy ideal. By establishing the existence and properties of this smallest α-fuzzy ideal, we shed light on the structure and behavior of α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. Furthermore, we prove that the class of α-fuzzy ideals forms a complete lattice. We obtain the closure operator on the class of fuzzy ideals FI(A), where the closed elements correspond to the α-fuzzy ideals. We explore the conditions under which every fuzzy ideal in a given C-algebra becomes an α-fuzzy ideal. Finally, we study the space of prime α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras and we derive a necessary and sufficient condition for this space to be a T1 space.
1. Introduction
According Guzman and Squier (Citation1990), a C-algebra is an algebra with two binary operations and , and one unary operation satisfying most of the properties of operations in Boolean algebra. It is observed that the family of C-algebras forms a variety, that is, it is closed under the three class operators, and it is a variety generated by the three-element algebra . The variety of C-algebras, known by the name “the algebra of conditional logic”, is the algebraic model for the three-valued conditional logic. Kalesha Vali et al. (Citation2010) and Vali and Swamy (Citation2011) studied the concepts of ideals, prime ideals and maximal ideals of C-algebras. They proved that the set of all ideals can be made an algebraic lattice. Moreover, they studied the space of prime ideals of a C-algebra with respect to the hull-kernel topology. Rao (Citation2013b), studied the notion of annihilator ideals of C-algebras and proved that the class of all annihilator ideals forms a complete Boolean algebra. Later, this author studied the notion of annulates and α-ideals of C-algebras analogous to that of a distributive lattice Rao (Citation2013a).
In classical set theory, an object or individual is either a member or not a member of a set, and there is no in-between. This means that there is a clear boundary between members and non-members. However, many real-life problems cannot be solved by this theory because they require more complex solutions. For example, some problems may require an object to be both a member and non-member of a set at the same time. Therefore, classical set theory is not sufficient to solve all real-life problems.
In classical set theory, it is well known that individuals are either a member or not a member of a set. So, there exists a clear, and sharp, boundary between members and non-members. Thus, in classical set theory, an object or an individual is not allowed to be a member of a set and nonmember of the set at the same time. But many of our real-life problems cannot be handled by such ordinary set theory. In 1965, the famous mathematician called Zadeh (Citation1965), introduced the elegant theory known as the theory of fuzzy sets. He has defined the notion of fuzzy subsets of a set (the universe of discourses) in such a way that could describe vagueness mathematically by assigning a grade of membership (a number between 0 and 1). This value in fact expressed the degree or the extent to which an individual belongs to the given fuzzy set. Goguen (Citation1967) suggested that the unit interval is insufficient to represent the truth values of general fuzzy statements. Swamy and Swamy (Citation1988) initiated that complete lattices satisfying the infinite meet distributivity are the most suitable candidates to have the truth values of general fuzzy statements.
In 1971, Rosenfeld (Citation1971) has applied the concept of fuzziness in group theory. He has defined closurity of fuzzy sets under a group binary operation and inversion operation, which enables him to introduce fuzzy subgroups of a group. This laid a foundation and opens the door for several algebraists to work on fuzzy sub-algebras of different algebraic structures. To mention some of them: invariant fuzzy sub-groups of a group (see Anthony and Sherwood (Citation1979); Das (Citation1981); Dixit et al. (Citation1990)), fuzzy sub-rings and fuzzy ideals of a ring (see Dixit et al. (Citation1991); Liu (Citation1982); Mukherjee and Sen (Citation1987)), fuzzy ideals and fuzzy filters of a lattice (see Bo and Wangming (Citation1990); Swamy and Raju (Citation1998)), fuzzy ideals and fuzzy filters of MS-algebras (see Alaba and Alemayehu (Citation2018); Alaba et al. (Citation2018); Alaba and Alemayehu (Citation2019b); Alaba and Alemayehu (Citation2019a)), etc.
Alaba and Norahun (Citation2019) studied the concept of α-fuzzy ideals and the space of prime α-fuzzy ideals of a distributive lattice with the help of annulates and proved that the class of all α-fuzzy ideals forms a complete distributive lattice. Alaba and Addis (Citation2018) studied the concept of fuzzy ideals of C-algebras. Furthermore, Addis (Citation2020) studied the notion of prime fuzzy ideals of a C-algebra and its space.
The purpose of this paper is to study the notion of α-fuzzy ideals of C-algebras analogous to distributive lattices. The basic properties of α-fuzzy ideals are also studied. A special class of fuzzy ideals called α-fuzzy ideals are also studied. One of the key contributions of this manuscript is the investigation of the smallest α-fuzzy ideal containing a given fuzzy ideal. By establishing the existence and properties of this smallest α-fuzzy ideal, we shed light on the structure and behavior of α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. We prove that the class of α-fuzzy ideals of a C-algebra A forms a complete lattice, providing a valuable insight into the lattice-theoretic aspects of these ideals. This result is significant as it demonstrates the existence of supremum and infimum operations for α-fuzzy ideals, enabling us to reason about the algebraic structure of these ideals in a systematic manner. Additionally, we obtained the closure operator on the class of fuzzy ideals FI(A), where the closed elements correspond to the α-fuzzy ideals of A. Moreover, we provide a set of equivalent conditions for a given C-algebra, under which every fuzzy ideal becomes an α-fuzzy ideal. These conditions serve as a valuable criterion for determining when the notion of α-fuzzy ideals coincides with that of fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. This result contributes to our understanding of the relationship between fuzzy ideals and α-fuzzy ideals, providing a deeper insight into the algebraic structure of C-algebras. The image and inverse image of α-fuzzy ideals under the homomorphism mapping are also studied. Finally, we study the topological space of prime α-fuzzy ideals of C-algebras. Some of its properties are also studied. We prove that the collection is a topology on Ω and is a basis for a topology on Ω. We also show that the space Ω is a T0 space. Moreover, we established a necessary and sufficient condition that the space Ω is a T1 space.

5. Conclusion
The concept of annulates and α-ideals of C-algebra was introduced by M. S. Rao Rao (Citation2013a). They characterized α-ideals in terms of annulates and minimal prime ideals. Motivated by this work in this paper we study the fuzzy version of α-ideals of C-algebras.
In this paper, we have explored the concept of α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. Our study has provided valuable insights into the properties and characteristics of α-fuzzy ideals, contributing to the broader field of fuzzy algebraic structures. We have presented several characterizations for fuzzy ideals to be α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. These characterizations allow us to identify the conditions under which a fuzzy ideal can be considered an α-fuzzy ideal. By establishing these characterizations, we have enhanced our understanding of the relationship between fuzzy ideals and α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras. Furthermore, we have investigated the smallest α-fuzzy ideal containing a given fuzzy ideal of a C-algebra A. Moreover, we have provided a set of equivalent conditions for a given C-algebra, under which every fuzzy ideal becomes an α-fuzzy ideal. Finally, we have studied the space of prime α-fuzzy ideals in C-algebras and derived a necessary and sufficient condition for this space to be a T1 space. Our future work will focus on fuzzy semiprime ideals in general lattices.
