Abstract
In this contribution, we present a functional approach to the cardinality of finite fuzzy sets, it means an approach based on one-to-one correspondences between fuzzy sets. In contrast to one fixed universe of discourse used for all fuzzy sets, our theory is developed within a class of fuzzy sets which universes of discourse are countable sets, and finite fuzzy sets are introduced as fuzzy sets with finite supports. We propose some basic operations with fuzzy sets as well as two constructions - fuzzy power set and fuzzy exponentiation. To express the fact that two finite fuzzy sets have approximately the same cardinality we propose the concept of graded equipollence. Using this concept we provide graded versions of several well-known statements, including the Cantor-Bernstein theorem and the Cantor theorem.
