Smarandache Fuzzy Algebra

Abstract

The author studies the Smarandache Fuzzy Algebra, which, like its predecessor Fuzzy Algebra, arose from the need to define structures that were more compatible with the real world where the grey areas mattered, not only black or white. This book has seven chapters, which are divided into two parts. Part I contains the first chapter, and Part II encloses the remaining six chapters. In the first chapter (which also forms the first part), which is subdivided into twelve sections, we deal with eleven distinct fuzzy algebraic concepts and in the concluding section list the miscellaneous properties of fuzzy algebra. The eleven fuzzy algebraic concepts which we analyze are fuzzy sets, fuzzy subgroups, fuzzy sub-bigroups, fuzzy rings, fuzzy birings, fuzzy fields, fuzzy semirings, fuzzy near-rings, fuzzy vector spaces, fuzzy semigroups and fuzzy half-groupoids. The results used in these sections are extensive and we have succeeded in presenting new concepts defined by several researchers.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
