Abstract
In this paper we present how the theory of partial functions can be developed in the fuzzy type theory and show how the theory elaborated by Lapierre [3] and Lepage [4] can be included in it. Namely, the latter is developed as a special theory whose models contain the partial functions in the sense introduced by both authors.

- 1.
It is required that Sq gives square root for all elements from \(M_{\epsilon }\), on which it is defined and may give arbitrary elements otherwise.
- 2.
We silently assumed that the crisp inequality \(\ge \) is also defined.
- 3.
In fact, we can consider here some arbitrary type \(\alpha \) provided that we will specify its properties characterizing people.
