Abstract

In this paper, the concept of fuzzy convex subgroup (resp. fuzzy convex lattice-ordered subgroup) of an ordered group (resp. lattice-ordered group) is introduced and some properties, characterizations and related results are given. Also, the fuzzy convex subgroup (resp. fuzzy convex lattice-ordered subgroup) generated by a fuzzy subgroup (resp. fuzzy subsemigroup) is characterized. Furthermore, the Fundamental Homomorphism Theorem is established. Finally, it is proved that the class of all fuzzy convex lattice-ordered subgroups of a lattice-ordered group $G$ forms a complete Heyting sublattice of the lattice of fuzzy subgroups of $G$.
