Abstract

 In a fuzzy relation equation, many properties of the solution set are known, especially when the basic spaces are all finite sets. However, when the basic spaces are infinite, only a few properties are known. In this paper, we introduce a new binary relation that is weaker than the ordinary one defined on fuzzy sets, and we show that an unattainable solution is partly characterized by the proposed binary relation.
