摘要
Complex fuzzy N-soft set (CFN-SS) is an important technique to manage awkward and unreliable information in realistic decision-making problems. CFN-SS is a blend of two separate theories, called N-soft sets (N-SSs) and complex fuzzy sets (CFSs), which are the modified versions of soft sets (SSs) and fuzzy sets (FSs) to depict vague and uncertain information in daily life problems. In this manuscript, the novel concept of CFN-SS is explored and their fundamental laws are discussed. CFN-SS contains the grade of truth in the form of a complex number whose real and imaginary parts are limited to the unit interval. Besides, we examine some algebraic properties for CFN-SS like union, intersections and justify these properties with the help of some numerical examples. To examine the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed approaches, the special cases of the investigated approaches are also discussed. A decision-making procedure is developed by using the investigated ideas based on CFN-SSs. Further, some numerical examples are also illustrated with the help of explored ideas to find the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed approaches. Finally, the comparative analysis of the investigated ideas with some existing ideas is also demonstrated to prove the quality of the proposed works. The graphical expressions of the obtained results are also discussed.
