Generalized convex combination of triangular norms on bounded lattices

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the notions of the linear and generalized convex combination (shortly, g-convex combination) for triangular norms on bounded lattices. We investigate the conditions for the g-convex combination to be a triangular norm again. We introduce a triangular norm defined on a bounded lattice of equivalence classes and investigate some basic properties of the introduced triangular norm.
