Abstract A new type of translation invariant and lower semi continuous fuzzy measure, called VGFM (Vector Generated Fuzzy Measure), on the class of subsets of a real Hilbert space is introduced. It measures a subset of the Hilbert space as a projection of the set along a given unit vector in the Hilbert space. Any VGFM uniquely de_nes two orthogonal subspaces called the support space and null space whose direct sum is the Hilbert space. An equivalence of VGFMs is defined related to the support space. A partial order relation similar to that of absolute continuity is defined on the class of all VGFMs. It is proved that this partial order makes the class of all VGFMs a lattice. Further properties of the lattice of VGFMs are studied.

1. Introduction A new type of fuzzy measure on a real Hilbert space was de_ned [6] by Manju Cherian and K. Sudheer. It was proved [7] that the fuzzy measure of a compact and convex set resembles the concept of length of an intervalas the di_erence between the end points. An equivalence relation based on the support space of the VGFM is de_ned. On the class of all VGFMs on a Hilbert space, a partial order relation is introduced. This partial order is compared with the absolute continuity of classical measures. It is proved that the partial order makes the class of VGFMs a lattice.

3. Lattice of VGFMs Precedence is introduced among the class of all VGFMs. It is proved that this resembles the absolute continuity of fuzzy measures. Moreover it forms a partial order making the set of all VGFMs a lattice. Precedence is given the same notation as that of absolute continuity of fuzzy measures.
Proof. The conditions of reflexivity, symmetry and transitivity follow directly from the definition. Note3.3. Under the equivalence defined, the collection of all VGFMs becomes an equivalence class. Each member of this class represents a collection of VGFMs equivalent to it. If the Hilbert space is assumed to be separable, it is possible to have a VGFM corresponding to every orthogonal pair of subspaces making a decomposition of the Hilbert. 57

Theorem3.4. For each pair of non-empty subspaces of a Hilbert space which are orthogonal complements of each other, there is a VGFM for which these two subspaces chosen are respectively the support and null spaces.
