ABSTRACTS In this paper we study fuzzy representations of a fuzzy G- module  of a G-module M/N onto a fuzzy G-module  of a general linear space GL(V). This transformation is done on the basis of G-module representation theory. We also prove a fundamental theorem of Gmodule fuzzy representations. Keywords: G-module, fuzzy G-module, fuzzy homomorphism, fuzzy isomorphism, fuzzy representation.

INTRODUCTION The notion of fuzzy subsets was introduced by L.A. Zadeh7 in 1965. In 1971, Rosenfeld4 defined the fuzzy subgroups and gave some of its properties. Mathematicians like Abu Osman, Katsaras and Liu and Gu Wenxiang have studied fuzzy versions of various algebraic structures. G. Frobenius developed the theory of group representations at the end

of the 19th century. The theory of Gmodules originated in the 20 th century. Representation theory was developed on the basis of embedding a group G in to a linear group GL (V). As a continuation of the authors' work in6 to 11, in this paper, we prove a theorem related to the fuzzy homomorphism and a fundamental theorem for G-module fuzzy representations.

1.1

Definition [1] Let G be a finite group. A vector space M over a field K (a subfield of C) is called a G-module if for every g  G and m M, a product (called the right action of G on M) m.g M which satisfies the following axioms. 1. m.1G = m  m M (1G being the identify of G) 2. m. (g. h) = (m.g). h m  M, g, hG 3. (k1 m1 + k2 m2). G = k1 (m1. g) + k2 (m2. g), k1, k2  K, m1, m2 M & g  G. In a similar manner the left action of G on M can be defined. 1.2. Definition [1] Let M and M* be G-modules. A mapping :MM* is a G-module homomorphism if 1. (k1 m1 + k2m2) = k1  (m1) + k2  (m2) 2. (gm) = g  (m),  k1, k2  K, m, m1, m2 M & g  G. 1.3. Definition [1] Let M be a G-module. A subspace N of M is a G-submodule if N is also a Gmodule under the action of G. 1.4. Definition [3] Let G be a finite group and M be a G-module over K, which is a subfield of C. Then a fuzzy G-module on M is a fuzzy subset µ of M such that. i) µ (ax + by) > µ (x) µ (y), a, bK & x, y M ii) µ (gm) > µ (m),  g  G, m  M It may be recalled that by a fuzzy subset of M we mean a function µ:M [0,1].

Definition [1] Let G be a group and M be a vector space over a field K. A linear representation of G with representation space M is a homomorphism of G into GL(M), where GL (M) is the group of units in Homk (M, M) called the general linear group GL (M). 1.6 Definition [3] Let G and G1 be groups. Let µ be a fuzzy group on G and  be a fuzzy group on G1. Let f be a group homomorphism of G onto G1. Then f is called a weak fuzzy homomorphism of µ into  if f (µ) . The homomorphism f is a fuzzy homomorphism of µ onto  f (µ ) =. We say that µ is fuzzy homomorphic to  and we write µ . Let f : GG1 be an isomorphism. Then f is called a weak fuzzy isomorphism f (µ)  and f is a fuzzy isomorphism if f (µ) = . 1.7 Definition [5] Let G be a group and M be vector space over K and T: GG 1 be a representation of G in M. Let µ be a fuzzy group on G and  be a fuzzy group on the range of T. Then the representation T is a fuzzy representation if T is a fuzzy homomorphism of µ onto . 1.8 Definition [2, 3] Let f be a function defined from X to Y. The image of a fuzzy subset µ on X under 'f' is the fuzzy subset f (µ ) of Y defined by f ( µ) (y) =  {µ (x) | x  f–1 (y)}, y  Y. The pre-image of the fuzzy subset

 on Y under 'f' is the fuzzy subset on Y under ‘f‘ is the fuzzy subset f –1 () of X defined by f –1 () (x) =  { f (x) },  x  X. 1.9 Definition [3] Let µ be a fuzzy subgroup of G and N be a normal subgroup of G.  on G/N is defined as  [x] =  {µ(z) |  [x] },  x  G, where [x] denotes the coset xN. Then  is a fuzzy subgroup of G/N. 1.10. A fundamental theorem of fuzzy representations (see [11]) Let G be a group and M be a vector space over a field K. If T : G GL (M) is a fuzzy representation of G then  : G/NGL (M) is a fuzzy representation of G/N where N is a normal subgroup of G 1.11. Definition Let M and M* be G-modules Let T be a Gmodule homomorphism of M into M*. Let µ be a fuzzy G-module of M and  be a fuzzy G-module of M*. Then T is called a G-module fuzzy homomorphism of µ onto  if T (µ) =, written as µ  . If T (µ) , T is called a weak fuzzy G-module homomorphism. If T:MM* is a G-module isomorphism and T (µ) =  then T is a fuzzy G-module isomorphism of µ onto . If T (µ)  then T is called a weak fuzzy Gmodule isomorphism of µ into . 1.12 Example Let G = { 1, -1 }, M = R4 over R and M* = R. Let { e1, e2, e3, e4} be the standard basis for M. Define µ : M [0,1] by µ (k1 e1 + k2 e2 + k3 e3 + k4 e4)

= 1 if ki = 0, i = 1/2 if k1 0, k2 = k3 = k4 = 0 = 1/3 if k2  0, k3 = k4 = 0 = 1/4 if k3  0, k4 = 0 = 1/5 if k4  0 Then µ is a fuzzy G-module of M. Define on R by (0) = 1,  (x) = ½ if x  0. It can be verified that  is a fuzzy G-module on R. Define f : R4  R by f (x) = 4i=1 xi, x = (x1 x2, x3, x4) For a, b  R and x, y M, f(ax + by) = f { a (x1 x2, x3, x4) + b ( y1, y2,y3, y4)} = f {(a x1 + by1, ax2 + by2, ax3 + by3, ax4 + by4)} = 4i=1 (axi + byi) = a4i xi + b4i yi = a f (x) + b f (y) For g  G & x  M, f(gx) = f {g (x1 x2, x3, x4) } = 4i = 1 g x i = g  4i xi = g { f (x) } f is a G -module homomorphism and f (µ) (0) =  {µ(x) | x  f–1 (0) } = 1 For w  0, f (µ) (w) =  {µ (x) | x  f –1 (w) } = 1/2  f (µ) = .  f is a G-module fuzzy homomorphism of µ onto v. 1.13 Definition Let G be a finite group and M and V be G-modules over K.Then T: M GL (V) is called a G-module representation if T is a G-module homomorphism of M into GL (V). 1.14 Definition Let G be a finite group and let M

Let T : M GL (V) be a G-module fuzzy representation of µ onto  where µ is a fuzzy G-module of M and  is a fuzzy G-module of T (M). Then : M/ NGL (V) is a G-module fuzzy representation of  onto  where  is a fuzzy G-module of M/N.
