Intuitionistic interval-valued hesitant fuzzy matrix games with a new aggregation operator for solving management problem

In our daily life, we encounter many problems with uncertainty and vagueness in nature. Mathematical formulations and solutions of these problems are not easy and appear to be a challenging task to the researchers. Crisp sets and fuzzy sets suffer to deal with these. Hesitant fuzzy set-a protracted version of fuzzy set-comes into the fore to bridge over the gap. The set of all possible values of membership of hesitant fuzzy set might be considered as a set of possible intervals. Non-membership functions are also added therein to get intuitionistic interval-valued hesitant fuzzy numbered sets. In the literature, several aggregation operators exist, and here we consider a new one which is easy to apply in our formulated problems. Here, a matrix game whose payoffs are intuitionistic interval-valued hesitant fuzzy numbers is solved using our proposed aggregation operator. A tangible management problem with numerical values is demonstrated here to verify the applicability of the new aggregation operator over the matrix game.
