Abstract

In [2] Dubois and Prade introduced the notion of fuzzy numbers and defined the basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. A slightly modified definition of fuzzy numbers was presented in [4], and in that paper a metric was defined for this family of fuzzy sets. Another less restrictive definition of fuzzy numbers can be found in [1]. In the present paper we consider fuzzy numbers from a somewhat different perspective. Basically, we shall view fuzzy numbers in a topological vector space setting. Using the customary vector space operations together with the metric given in [4] we will define differentiation and integration of fuzzy-valued functions in ways that parallel closely the corresponding definitions for real differentiation and integration.
