On the weak robustness of fuzzy matrices

Ján Plavka

Abstract:

A matrix $A$ in $(\max,\min)$-algebra (fuzzy matrix) is called weakly robust if $A^k\otimes x $ is an eigenvector of $A$ only if $x$ is an eigenvector of $A$. The weak robustness of fuzzy matrices are studied and its properties are proved. A characterization of the weak robustness of fuzzy matrices is presented and an $O(n^2)$ algorithm for checking the weak robustness is described.

Keywords:
