Abstract
Ternary fuzzy relations, and fuzzy betweenness relations in particular, are witnessing increasing attention in recent years. A key reason is that axiomatic properties of ternary fuzzy relations seem to be ideally suited to capture geometric characteristics of the abstract notion of betweenness. In this paper, we introduce several new properties of ternary fuzzy relations, including the Peano property, the Pasch property and the sand-glass property, that can be qualified as geometric properties. We investigate their interrelationships as well as their connections with various types of fuzzy betweenness relations. Additionally, in the context of our study of the Pasch property and the sand-glass property, we introduce the convexity property of ternary fuzzy relations by taking inspiration from the solid theoretical basis of the theory of fuzzy convex structures.
期刊介绍：
Since its launching in 1978, the journal Fuzzy Sets and Systems has been devoted to the international advancement of the theory and application of fuzzy sets and systems. The theory of fuzzy sets now encompasses a well organized corpus of basic notions including (and not restricted to) aggregation operations, a generalized theory of relations, specific measures of information content, a calculus of fuzzy numbers. Fuzzy sets are also the cornerstone of a non-additive uncertainty theory, namely possibility theory, and of a versatile tool for both linguistic and numerical modeling: fuzzy rule-based systems. Numerous works now combine fuzzy concepts with other scientific disciplines as well as modern technologies.
In mathematics fuzzy sets have triggered new research topics in connection with category theory, topology, algebra, analysis. Fuzzy sets are also part of a recent trend in the study of generalized measures and integrals, and are combined with statistical methods. Furthermore, fuzzy sets have strong logical underpinnings in the tradition of many-valued logics.
