Abstract

In several cases we show that it is possible to extend a notion in classical mathematics by identifying each fuzzy subset with the continuous chain of its closed cuts and by applying this notion to these cuts. In particular this idea is applied to extend functions from subsets into subsets (for instance, closure operators) and functions from sets into real numbers (for instance, measures).
