Abstract

In the former part of this paper, we gave representation theorems for n-dimensional fuzzy numbers. For the special case of n = 1, it is just the same as Theorem 1.1 in Goetschel and Voxman (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 18 (1986) 31), which expresses a fuzzy number with two functions. In the latter part of this paper, we will extend the three parameters: value, ambiguity and fuzziness, defined for the one-dimensional fuzzy numbers in Delgado et al. (Fuzzy Sets and Systems 93 (1998) 125; 94 (1998) 205), to the n-dimensional case.
