Abstract

An L-fuzzifying matroid is a pair (E, I), where I is a map from
2E to L satisfying three axioms. In this paper, the notion of closure operators
in matroid theory is generalized to an L-fuzzy setting and called L-fuzzifying
closure operators. It is proved that there exists a one-to-one correspondence
between L-fuzzifying matroids and their L-fuzzifying closure operators.
