Abstract
Convexity theory and duality theory are important issues in math-
ematical programming. Within the framework of credibility theory, this paper
rst introduces the concept of convex fuzzy variables and some basic criteria.
Furthermore, a convexity theorem for fuzzy chance constrained programming
is proved by adding some convexity conditions on the objective and constraint
functions. Finally, a duality theorem for fuzzy linear chance constrained pro-
gramming is proved.
