KEYWORDS Approximation; algebraic fuzzy equation; nonlinear system 1. Introduction In many purposes of a system, we may need to solve a fuzzy equation. Zadeh introduced some properties of fuzzy equations in [1] and some other types of such equations were discussed by some researchers [2, 3] and they tried to solve them analytically. Solving an algebraic equation of degree at most 3 has no analytical method even in crisp form. So it is necessary to find the numerical solution of an equation. In [4], fuzzy nonlinear equa- tions with fuzzy unknown were considered. A research effort has been done on algebraic fuzzy equations by using neural network [5]. Two numerical iterative methods have been presented in [6, 7] to find the roots of an algebraic fuzzy equation of degree n, one with fuzzy coefficients and crisp unknown and the other one with crisp coefficients and fuzzy unknown. In the present essay, we introduce a numerical method to solve a full fuzzy alge- braic equation, such that all numbers are fuzzy, both the unknown variable and coefficients. The organisation of the present paper is as follows. In Section 2, we represent a full fuzzy algebraic equation and we discuss solving a nonlinear system of equations. In Section 3, an algorithm is introduced to numerically solving a full fuzzy algebraic fuzzy equation. Some examples are given in Section 4, and Section 5 contains the conclusion of this work. 2. Preliminaries The presentation of a fuzzy number f by a pair of functions as (f, f ) is called the parametric form of f, such that over [0, 1], we have: f is a left continuous and monotonically increasing function, f is a left continuous and monotonically decreasing function, and f ≤ f [8–12]. We consider the set of all fuzzy numbers by F. CONTACT Majid Amirfakhrian amirfakhrian@iauctb.ac.ir © 2021 The Author(s).

AMIRFAKHRIAN AND S. R. FAYYAZ BEHROOZ Suppose f = (f, f ) and g ˜ = (g, g) arebothbelongingto F. Then some operations are defined as follows: (kf, xf ), k > 0, • kf = (kf, xf ), k < 0; • f + g ˜ = (f + g, f + g); • f − g ˜ = (f − g, f − g). • If w ˜ = f.g ˜, then w = min{f.g, f.g, f.g, f.g} w = max{f.g, f.g, f.g, f.g} ˜ ˜ A fuzzy number f is called non-negative (non-positive) if f ≥ 0 (f ≤ 0) on [0, 1]. Also f ∈ F is called positive (negative), if f > 0 (f < 0) on [0, 1]. It is obvious that for non-negative fuzzy ˜ ˜ ˜ numbers f and g ˜ we have f g ˜ = (f.g, f.g), and for non-positive fuzzy numbers f and g ˜ we have f g ˜ = (f.g, f.g). Definition 2.1: r−cut of a fuzzy number v ˜ is the interval [v(r), v(r)], and we use the notation [v ˜] for it. Definition 2.2: P (x ˜) is a fuzzy polynomial of degree at most n with fuzzy coefficients, if there are some fuzzy numbers a ˜ , ... , a ˜ ,suchthat 0 n P (x ˜) = a ˜ x ˜.(1) n j j=0 For a positive integer n, an algebraic equation with full fuzzy feature of degree n,can be defined as ˜ ˜ P (x ˜) = b,(2) where a ˜ , ... a ˜ , x ˜ ∈ F, a ˜ = 0and b ∈ F. 0 n n Definition 2.3: A‘m-degree polynomial form’ fuzzy number v ˜ is defined by a pair v ˜ = (p , q ),suchthat p and q are two polynomials of degree at most m [13–15]. m m m m We use PF for the set of all m-degree polynomial form fuzzy numbers [13, 14, 16]. Let s d T T F : R −→ R be a function such that maps Z = (y , ... , y ) to F (Z) = (f (Z), ... , f (Z)), 1 s 1 d where d ≥ s. To solve the system of equations F(Z) = 0, (3) ∂F (Z) by Gauss–Newton method [17], we consider A(Z) as the Jacobian of F: A(Z) = [ ], ∂y (0) j = 1, ... , s and i = 1, ... , d. Considering Z as an initial vector, we try to improve this (k) (k) (k) guess, so the system A(Z )H =−F(Z ) should be solved in each iteration and then the (k+1) (k) (k) approximated solution will be improved by considering Z = Z + H .Thissystemof FUZZY INFORMATION AND ENGINEERING 3 equation can be solved by a least square method as the following: (k) T (k) (k) (k) T (k) A(Z ) A(Z )H =−A(Z ) F(Z ).(4) Some conditions on convergence and uniqueness of the solution of (3) are proposed [18–20]. Let b = (b, b) and a ˜ = (a , a ) for j = 0, ... , n are known fuzzy numbers. We try j j to solve the following full fuzzy algebraic equation from degree n: a ˜ x ˜ + ··· + a ˜ x ˜ + a ˜ = b,(5) n 1 0 in which we have a ˜ = 0. We consider x ˜ = (x, x) as the unknown fuzzy root of Equation (5). 3. Solving the Algebraic Fuzzy Equation Let the unknown x ˜ be a fuzzy number belonging to PF . Also let we have a ˜ ∈ PF and j m b ∈ PF ,inwhich l ≤ nk + m. We discuss about Equation (5), by four cases: • First we consider the case that the unknown fuzzy number x ˜ be non-negative and for all j = 0, ... , n,wehave a ≥ 0. By these assumptions, Equation (5) changes to the two following equations: a x = b,(6) j=0 a x = b.(7) j=0 Now by the assumptions on fuzzy numbers, we consider that m m i i a = a r , a = a r , j ij j ij i=0 i=0 l l i i b = b r , b = b r , i=0 i=0 k k i i x = α r , x = β r . i i i=0 i=0 By these assumptions, Equation (6) changes to ⎧ ⎫ ⎛ ⎞ n m k l ⎨ ⎬ i i j i ⎝ ⎠ a r α r ) = b r.(8) ij i ⎩ ⎭ j=0 i=0 i=0 i=0 ˜ ˜ Since a ∈ PF , x ∈ PF ,wehave j m P (x ˜) = a ˜ x ˜ ∈ PF.(9) n j nk+m j=0 4 M. AMIRFAKHRIAN AND S. R. FAYYAZ BEHROOZ By rewriting (8) by an ordering on the power of r and by considering (9), for i = 0, ... , nk + m, the coefficient of r is a function L and we have nk+m l i i L (α , ... , α )r = b r . (10) i 0 k i=0 i=0 After taking the corresponding coefficients in both sides equal, for i = 0, ... , nk + m,we have an equation: b , i = 0, ... , l, L (α , ... , α ) = (11) i 0 k 0, i = l + 1, ... , nk + m. Similarly, by rewriting (7) by an ordering on the power of r and by considering (9), for i = 0, ... , nk + m, the coefficient of r is a function U and we have nk+m l i i U (β , ... , β )r = b r , (12) i 0 k i i=0 i=0 and by taking the corresponding coefficients in both sides equal, for i = 0, ... , nk + m, we have an equation: b , i = 0, ... , l, U (β , ... , β ) = (13) i 0 k 0, i = l + 1, ... , nk + m. ˜ ˜ • Let x be non-negative and for some j, a be negative. Thus Equation (5) changes to the two following equations: j j a x + a x = b, (14) j j a ≥0 a <0 j j j j a x + a x = b. (15) j j a ≥0 a <0 j j • In the case that a ˜ ’s are all non-negative and x ˜ is negative, Equation (5) changes to the following equations: j j a x + a x = b, (16) j even j odd j j a x + a x = b. (17) j even j odd ˜ ˜ • If x be negative and for some j, a be negative, then Equation (5) changes to the following equations: j j j j a x + a x + a x + a x = b (18) j j j j a ≥0 a ≥0 a <0 a <0 j j j j j even j even j odd j odd and j j j j a x + a x + a x + a x = b. (19) j j j j a ≥0 a ≥0 a <0 a <0 j j j j j even j even j odd j odd FUZZY INFORMATION AND ENGINEERING 5 In the last three cases, rewriting the equations by an ordering on the power of r leads us ˆ ˆ ˆ to introduce two functions L and U for i = 0, ... , nk + m, which are the coefficients of r (L i i i respect to (14), (16) or (18) and U respect to (15), (17) or (19)). For i = 0, ... , nk + m both ˆ ˆ functions L and U are functions of α ’s and β ’s. Thus we have i i j j b , i = 0, ... , l, L (α , ... , α , β , ... , β ) = (20) i 0 k 0 k 0, i = l + 1, ... , nk + m, and b , i = 0, ... , l, U (α , ... , α , β , ... , β ) = (21) i 0 0 k k 0, i = l + 1, ... , nk + m. Let us introduce two functions L and U as follows: i i L − b , i = 0, ... , l, L = (22) L , i = l + 1, ... , nk + m, and U − b , i = 0, ... , l, U = (23) U , i = l + 1, ... , nk + m. Therefore we have L = 0, i = 0, 1, ... , nk + m, (24) U = 0, i = 0, 1, ... , nk + m. Equation (24) is a nonlinear system of equations with d = 2(nk + m + 1) equations and s = 2k + 2 unknowns, so it can be solved by an iterative Gauss–Newton method.

(31) ν+1 ν n−1 na x + ... + 2a x + a n−1 ν 2 ν 1 Proof: For a crisp function algebraic equation P (x) = a x + ··· + a x + a = b,wehave n n 1 0 x = α and x = β , where α = β . For this equation, we have 0 0 0 0 L = a α + ··· + a α + a − b, 0 n 1 0 0 (32) U = a β + ··· + a β + a − b. 0 n 1 0 0 0 FUZZY INFORMATION AND ENGINEERING 7 The system (27) for this equation is as follows: ⎛ ⎞ dL ⎜ ⎟ dα h L 0 1 0 ⎜ ⎟ =− ⎝ ⎠ h U dU 2 0 dβ (ν) (ν) P (x ) n ν Using α = β = x,wehave L = U ,and h = h =− , therefore in the iteration 0 0 0 0 1 2 P (x ) n ν P (x ) n ν ν + 1, we have x = x − . ν+1 ν P (x ) By using the following lemma, we find that Algorithm 3.1 always generate a sequence. Lemma 3.4 ([21]): The system (28) always has a solution, for any k. 4. Numerical Examples In this section, we present some examples of full fuzzy algebraic equations. All examples are solved by commercial software Mathematica 10. Example 4.1: Consider the following equation: (r,2 − r)x ˜ + (2r,3 − r)x ˜ + (r,2 − r) = b, such that 3 2 3 2 b = (r + 4r + 4r, −r + 9r − 28r + 29). For this equation, we have n = 2, l = 3and m = 1. The least acceptable value of k is 1. By considering k = 1 and the initial fuzzy number x ˜ = (0, 0), after 6 iterations and 12 digits ∗ ∗ 1 2 ˜ ˜ accuracy, we obtain x = (r + 1, 3 − r). In this case, [x ] is the solution of x + 2x + 1 = 9. Example 4.2: For equation: (r,2 − r)x ˜ + (2r,3 − r)x ˜ + (r,2 − r) = b, with 5 3 3 2 b = (r + 2r + r, −4r + 22r − 43r + 29), we have n = 2, l = 5and m = 1. The least acceptable value of k is 2. By considering k = 2 and the initial fuzzy number x ˜ = (1, 1), after 6 iterations and 11 digits accuracy, we obtain ∗ 2 ∗ 1 2 x ˜ = (r ,3 − 2r). In this case, [x ˜ ] is the solution of x + 2x + 1 = 4. Example 4.3: Consider the following equation: ˜ ˜ (r,2 − r)x + (r − 3, −2r)x + (r,2 − r) = b, such that 3 2 3 2 b = (r + 3r + 12r − 12, −r + 8r − 37r + 34). For this equation, we have n = 2, l = 3and m = 1 and one of the coefficients is non- positive. The least acceptable value of k is 1. By considering k = 1 and the initial fuzzy 8 M. AMIRFAKHRIAN AND S. R. FAYYAZ BEHROOZ ˜ ˜ number x = (1, 1), after 7 iterations and 8 digits accuracy, we obtain x = (r + 2, 4 − r).In ∗ 1 2 this case, [x ˜ ] is the solution of x − 2x + 1 = 4. Example 4.4: Consider the following equation: (r + 1, 4 − 2r)x ˜ + (r,2 − r)x ˜ + (1, 1) = b, such that 3 2 3 2 b = (9r + 8r + 6r − 7, −2r + 17r − 64r + 65). For this equation, we have n = 2, l = 3and m = 1. The least acceptable value of k is 1. By considering k = 1 and the initial fuzzy number x ˜ = (−1, −1), after 7 iterations and 8 digits ∗ ∗ 1 2 accuracy, we obtain x ˜ = (r − 4, −3r). In this case, [x ˜ ] is the solution of 2x + x + 1 = 16. Here the root of equation is non-positive. Example 4.5: For the following equation: (r + 2, 5 − 2r)x ˜ + (2r − 6, −2r − 2)x ˜ + (2, 2) = b, with 3 2 3 2 b = (r + 4r + 2r + 2, −2r + 15r − 38r + 34), we have n = 2, l = 3and m = 1 and one of the coefficients is negative. The least accept- able value of k is 1. By considering k = 1 and the initial fuzzy number x ˜ = (−1, −1),after 8 ∗ ∗ 1 iterations and 8 digits accuracy, we obtain x ˜ = (r − 2, −r). In this case, [x ˜ ] is the solution of 3x − 4x + 2 = 9. Here the root of equation is non-positive. Example 4.6: Suppose that we want to solve the following equation: 4 3 (r,2 − r)x ˜ + (r,3 − 2r)x ˜ + (r,2 − r) 5 4 5 4 3 2 = (r + r + r, −r + 12r − 55r + 122r − 133r + 58). For this equation, we have n = 4, l = 5and m = 1. The least acceptable value of k is 1. By considering k = 1 and the initial fuzzy number x ˜ = (1, 1), after 10 iterations we obtain ∗ ∗ 1 4 3 x ˜ = (r,2 − r). In this case, [x ˜ ] is the solution of x + x + 1 = 3. Example 4.7: Suppose that a car is moving in a straight line with the velocity v ˜.Ifthiscar breaks, after a time t it will stop. The distance satisfies in the following relation: ˜ ˜ a ˜t + v ˜t = d, (33) in which a ˜ is the constant negative acceleration and t is the stopping time, and all variables m m are linguistic (Figure 1). If acceleration is about −6 and the velocity is about 30 , then by solving the equation, it will be clear that the car will stop after about 5 s (Figures 2 and 3).

Example 4.8: Consider the following fuzzy linear differential equation of order n: d x ˜ dx ˜ a ˜ + ··· + a ˜ + a ˜ x ˜ = 0, n 1 0 dt dt where t is the independent crisp variable. In order to find the solution of this ODE one must solve the following fuzzy algebraic equation of degree n: a ˜ w ˜ + ··· + a ˜ w ˜ + a ˜ = 0. n 1 0 Figure 4.

For example by considering a ˜ , a ˜ and a ˜ as shown in Figure 4, the solution of quadratic 2 1 0 equation is the fuzzy number which is shown in Figure 5 and the solution of related differential equation is x ˜(t) = exp((1 + 0.35r, 1.6 − 0.25r)t) (Figures 4 and 5). 5. Conclusion In this work, we presented a method to find a numerical solution of a full fuzzy alge- braic equation. The method can be used for any kind of fuzzy equations, with non-positive or non-negative roots and with non-positive or non-negative coefficients. Some possible future research directions may consist of the more general case than the four cases which considered in this paper, and using the proposed for multiple roots of an equation.
