Abstract

This paper is devoted to the discussion of the relationship between fuzzy rough set models and fuzzy topologies on a finite universe. The (TC) axiom for fuzzy topology is proposed. It is proved that the set of all lower approximation sets based on a reflexive and transitive fuzzy relation consists of a fuzzy topology which satisfies (TC) axiom; and conversely, a fuzzy topology which obey (TC) axiom is just the set of all lower approximation sets under a reflexive and transitive fuzzy relation. That is to say, there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the set of all reflexive and transitive fuzzy relations and the set of all fuzzy topologies which satisfy (TC) axiom.
