Introduction The fuzzy concept has invaded almost all branches of mathematics since the introduction of the concept by L. A. Zadeh [11]. Fuzzy sets have applications in many fields such as information [7] and control [8]. The theory of fuzzy topological space was introduced and developed by C. L. Chang [5] and since then various notions in classical topology have been extended to fuzzy topological space [3, 4]. A new class of fuzzy topological spaces called ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected spaces is introduced in this paper by using the concepts of fuzzy extremally disconnected spaces [1], fuzzy Gδ-sets [2] and ordered fuzzy topology [6]. Some interesting properties and characterizations are studied. Tietze extension theorem for ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected spaces has been discussed as in [10] besides proving several other propositions and lemmas.

Let (X, T ) be a fuzzy topological space and λ be a fuzzy set in X. λ is called a fuzzy Gδ-set if λ = ∧∞ i=1λi where each λi ∈ T [2]. Definition 1.2. Let (X, T ) be a fuzzy topological space and λ be a fuzzy set in X. λ is called a fuzzy Fσ-set if λ = ∨∞ i=1λi where each 1− λi ∈ T . Definition 1.3. Let (X, T ) be any fuzzy topological space. For any fuzzy set λ in X we define the σ-closure of λ, denote by clσ λ, to be the inter- section of all fuzzy Fσ-sets containing λ. That is clσ λ = ∧{µ : µ is a fuzzy Fσ-set and µ ≥ λ}. Definition 1.4. Let (X, T ) be any fuzzy topological space. For any fuzzy set λ in X, we define the σ-interior of λ, denote by intσ λ, to be the union of all fuzzy Gδ-sets contained in λ. That is, intσ λ = ∨{µ : µ is a fuzzy Gδ-set and µ ≤ λ}. Definition 1.5. For each t ∈ R, let Lt, Rt : R(I) → I be given by Lt(λ) = 1 − λ(t−) and Rt(λ) = λ(t+). Define L = {Lt : t ∈ R} ∪ {0, 1} and R = {Rt|t ∈ R} ∪ {0, 1}. Then L and R are called I-topologies on R(I) [9]. Definition 1.6. Suppose (X, T ) is a fuzzy topological space. X is said to be fuzzy extremally disconnected [2] if λ ∈ T implies cl λ ∈ T . Remark 1.1. The symbol 〈t〉 (t ∈ R) stands for the member of R(L) containing λ such that λ(t+) = λ(t−)′ = 0 [10]. 2. Ordered Fuzzy Gδ-extremally Disconnected Spaces In this section, the concept of ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally discon- nected spaces is introduced. Some interesting properties and characteri- zations are studied. Definition 2.1. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space and let λ be any fuzzy set in (X, T,≤), λ is called fuzzy increasing Gδ/Fσ if λ = ∧∞ i=1λi/if λ = ∨∞ i=1λi where each λi is fuzzy increasing open/closed in (X, T,≤). The complement of fuzzy increasing Gδ/Fσ-set is fuzzy decreasing Fδ/Gσ. 384 Tietze Extension Theorem... Definition 2.2. Let λ be any fuzzy set in the ordered fuzzy topological space (X, T,≤). Then we define Iσ(λ) = fuzzy increasing σ-closure of λ. = the smallest fuzzy increasing Fσ-set containing λ. Dσ(λ) = fuzzy decreasing σ-closure of λ. = the smallest fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set containing λ. I0 σ(λ) = fuzzy increasing σ-interior of λ. = the greatest fuzzy increasing Gδ-set contained in λ. D0 σ(λ) = fuzzy decreasing σ-interior of λ. = the greatest fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set contained in λ. Prorosition 2.1. For any fuzzy set λ of an ordered fuzzy topological space (X, T,≤), the following equalities are valid. (a) 1 − Iσ(λ) = D0 σ(1 − λ). (b) 1 − Dσ(λ) = I0 σ(1 − λ). (c) 1 − I0 σ(λ) = Dσ(1 − λ). (d) 1 − D0 σ(λ) = Iσ(1 − λ). Proof. We shall prove (a) only, (b), (c), and (d) can be proved in a similar manner. (a) Since Iσ(λ) is a fuzzy increasing Fσ-set containing λ, 1− Iσ(λ) is a fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set such that 1 − Iσ(λ) ≤ 1 − λ. Let µ be another fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set such that µ ≤ 1 − λ. Then 1 − µ is a fuzzy increasing Fσ-set such that 1 − µ ≥ λ. It follows that Iσ(λ) ≤ 1 − µ. That is, µ ≤ 1 − Iσ(λ). Thus, 1 − Iσ(λ) is the largest fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set such that 1−Iσ(λ) ≤ 1−λ. That is, 1−Iσ(λ) = 1−D0 σ(1−λ). Definition 2.3. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space. Let λ be any fuzzy increasing Gδ-set in (X, T,≤). If Iσ(λ) is fuzzy increasing Gδ-set in (X, T,≤), then (X, T,≤) is said to be upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected. Similarly we can define lower fuzzy Gδ-extremally discon- nected space. (X, T,≤) is said to be ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally discon- nected if it is both upper and lower fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected. Example 2.1. Let X = {a, b, c} and T = {0, 1, λ1, λ2, λ3, λ4} where λ1 : X → [0, 1] is such that λ1(a) = 0, λ1(b) = 1/4, λ1(c) = 3/4, λ2 : X → [0, 1] is such that λ2(a) = 1, λ2(b) = 3/4, λ2(c) = 3/4, E. Roja, M. K. Uma, G. Balasubramanian 385 λ3 : X → [0, 1] is such that λ3(a) = 1, λ3(b) = 3/4, λ3(c) = 1/4, and λ4 : X → [0, 1] is such that λ4(a) = 0, λ4(b) = 1/4, λ4(c) = 1/4. The partial order ”≤“ is defined as a ≤ b, b ≤ c. Then (X, T,≤) is an ordered fuzzy topological space. It is clear that (X, T,≤) is an ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected space. Prorosition 2.2. For an ordered fuzzy topological space (X, T,≤), the following statements are equivalent. (a) (X, T,≤) is upper fuzzy Gdelta-extremally disconnected. (b) For each fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set λ, D0 σ(λ) is a decreasing fuzzy Fσ-set. (c) For each fuzzy increasing Gδ-set λ, we have Iσ(λ) + Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)) = 1. (d) For each pair of fuzzy increasing Gδ-set λ and a fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set µ in (X, T,≤) with Iσ(λ) + µ = 1, we have Iσ(λ) + Dσ(µ) = 1. Proof. (a) ⇒ (b). Let λ be any fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set. We claim D0 σ(λ) is a fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set. Now 1− λ is fuzzy increasing Gδ and so by assumption (a), Iσ(1−λ) is fuzzy increasing Gδ. That is, D0 σ(λ) is fuzzy decreasing Fσ. (b) ⇒ (c). Let λ be any fuzzy increasing Gδ-set. Then, 1 − Iσ(λ) = D0 σ(1 − λ). (2.1) Consider Iσ(λ) + Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)) = Iσ(λ) + Dσ(D0 σ(1 − λ)). As λ is any fuzzy increasing Gδ-set, 1 − λ is fuzzy decreasing Fσ and by assumption (b), D0 σ(1 − λ) is fuzzy decreasing Fσ. Therefore, Dσ(D0 σ(1 − λ)) = D0 σ(1 − λ). Now, Iσ(λ) + Dσ(D0 σ(1 − λ)) = Iσ(λ) + D0 σ(1 − λ) = 1. That is, Iσ(λ) + Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)) = 1. 386 Tietze Extension Theorem... (c) ⇒ (d). Let λ be any fuzzy increasing Gδ-set and µ be any fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set such that Iσ(λ) + µ = 1. (2.2) By assumption (c), Iσ(λ) + Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)) = 1 = Iσ(λ) + µ. (2.3) That is, µ = Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)). Since µ = 1 − Iσ(λ), Dσ(µ) = Dσ(1 − Iσ(λ)). (2.4) From (2.3) and (2.4) Iσ(λ) + Dσ(µ) = 1. (d) ⇒ (a). Let λ be any fuzzy increasing Gδ-set. Put µ = 1 − Iσ(λ). Clearly, µ is fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set and from the construction of µ it follows that Iσ(λ)+µ = 1. By assumption (d), we have Iσ(λ)+Dσ(µ) = 1 and so Iσ(λ) = 1 −Dσ(µ) is fuzzy increasing Gδ. Therefore, (X, T,≤) is upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected. Prorosition 2.3. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space. Then (X, T,≤) is an upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected space ⇔ for fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set λ and fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set µ such that λ ≤ µ, we have Dσ(λ) ≤ D0 σ(µ). Proof. Suppose (X, T,≤) is an upper fuzzy Gδ-xtremally disconnected space. Let λ be any fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set such that λ ≤ µ. Then by (b) of Proposition 2.2, D0 σ(µ) is fuzzy decreasing Fσ. Also, since λ is fuzzy decreasing Gδ and λ ≤ µ, it follows that λ ≤ D0 σ(µ). Again, since D0 σ(µ) is fuzzy decreasing Fσ, it follows that Dσ(λ) ≤ D0 σ(µ). To prove the converse, let µ be any fuzzy decreasing Fσ-set. By Definition 2.2, D0 σ(µ) is fuzzy decreasing Gδ and it is also clear that D0 σ(µ) ≤ µ. Therefore by assumption, it follows that Dσ(D0 σ(µ)) ≤ D0 σ(µ). This implies that D0 σ(µ) is fuzzy decreasing Fσ. Hence by (b) of Proposition 2.2, it follows that (X, T,≤) is upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected. Remark 2.1. Let (X, T,≤) be an upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally discon- nected space. Let {λi, 1 − µi : i ∈ N} be a collection such that λi, i ∈ N are fuzzy decreasing Gδ-sets and µi, i ∈ N are fuzzy decreasing Fσ-sets. E. Roja, M. K. Uma, G. Balasubramanian 387 Let λ, 1 − µ be fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set and fuzzy increasing Gδ-set re- spectively. If λi ≤ λ ≤ µj and λi ≤ µ ≤ µj for all i, j ∈ N, then there exists a fuzzy decreasing GδFσ-set γ such that Dσ(λi) ≤ γ ≤ D0 σ(µj) for all i, j ∈ N. By Proposition 2.3, Dσ(λi) ≤ Dσ(λ) ∧ D0 σ(µ) ≤ D0 σ(µj) (i, j ∈ N). Put γ = Dσ(λ) ∧ D0 σ(µ). Now γ satisfies our required condition. Prorosition 2.4. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy Gδ-extremally dis- connected space. Let {λq}q∈Q and {µq}q∈Q be monotone increasing col- lections of fuzzy decreasing Gδ-sets and fuzzy decreasing Fσ-sets of (X, T,≤) respectively and suppose that λq1 ≤ µq2 whenever q1 < q2 (Q is the set of rational numbers). Then there exists a monotone increasing collection {γq}q∈Q of fuzzy decreasing GδFσ-sets of (X, T,≤) such that Dσ(λq1 ) ≤ γq2 and γq1 ≤ D0 σ(µq2 ) whenever q1 < q2. Proof. Let us arrange into sequence {qn} of rational numbers without repetitions. For every n ≥ 2, we shall define inductively a collection {γqi : 1 ≤ i ≤ n} ⊂ IX such that Dσ(λq) ≤ γqi if q < qi, γqi ≤ D0 σ(µq) if qi < q, (Sn) for all i < n. By Proposition 2.3, the family {Dσ(λq)} and {D0 σ(µq)} satisfying Dσ(λq1 ) ≤ D0 σ(µq2 ) if q1 < q2. By Remark 2.1, there exists fuzzy de- creasing GδFσ-set δ1 such that Dσ(λq1 ) ≤ δ1 ≤ D0 σ(µq2 ). Setting γq1 = δ1 we get (S2). Assume that fuzzy sets γqi are already defined for i < n and satisfy (Sn). Define Σ = ∨{γqi : i < n, qi < qn} ∨ λqn and Φ = ∧{γqj : j < n, qj > qn} ∧ µqn . Then we have that Dσ(γqi ) ≤ Dσ(Σ) ≤ D0 σ(γqj ) 388 Tietze Extension Theorem... and Dσ(γqi ) ≤ Dσ(Φ) ≤ D0 σ(γqj ) whenever qi < qn < qj (i, j < n) as well as λq ≤ Dσ(Σ) ≤ µq′ and λq ≤ D0 σ(Φ) ≤ µq′ whenever q < qn < q′. This shows that the countable collection {γqi : i < n, qi < qn} ∪ {λq : q < qn} and {γqi : j < n, qj > qn} ∪ {µq : q > qn} together with Σ and Φ fulfill all conditions of the mentioned Remark 2.1. Hence, there exists a fuzzy decreasing GδFsigma- set δn such that Dσ(δn) ≤ µq if qn < q, λq ≤ Dσ0(δn) if q < qn, Dσ(γqi ) ≤ D0 σ(δn) if qi < qn, Dσ(δn) ≤ D0 σ(γqj ) if qn < qj , where 1 ≤ i, j ≤ n − 1. Now, setting γqn = δn we obtain the fuzzy sets γq1 , γq2 , . . . , γqn that satisfy (Sn+1). Therefore, the collection {γqi : i = 1, 2, . . .} has the required property. This completes the proof. Definition 2.4. Let (X, T,≤) and (Y, S,≤) be ordered fuzzy topological spaces. A mapping f : (X, T,≤) → (Y, S,≤) is called fuzzy increas- ing/decreasing Gδ-continuous if f−1(λ) is fuzzy increasing/decreasing Gδ-set of (X, T,≤) for every fuzzy Gδ-set λ of (Y, S,≤). If f is both fuzzy increasing and fuzzy decreasing Gδ-continuous, then it is called or- dered fuzzy Gδ-continuous. Definition 2.5. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space. A function f : X → R(I) is called lower fuzzy Gδ-continuous if f−1(Rt) is fuzzy increasing of fuzzy decreasing Gδ for each t ∈ R and upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous if f−1(Lt) is fuzzy increasing of fuzzy decreasing Gδ for each t ∈ R. Lemma 2.1. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space, let λ ∈ IX , and let f : X → R(I) be such that f(x)(t) =      1 if t < 0, λ(x) if 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, 0 if t > 1, for all x ∈ X. Then f is lower/upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous iff λ is fuzzy increasing of decreasing Gδ/Fσ-set. E. Roja, M. K. Uma, G. Balasubramanian 389 Proof. If suffices to observe that f−1(Rt) =      1 if t < 0, λ if 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, 0 if t ≥ 1 and f−1(Lt′) =      1 if t ≤ 0, λ if 0 < t ≤ 1, 0 if t > 1. Thus proved. Definition 2.6. The characteristic function of λ ∈ IX is the map χλ : X → [0, 1](I) defined by χλ(x) = (λ(x)), x ∈ X [10]. Lemma 2.2. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space, let λ ∈ IX . Then χλ is lower/upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous iff λ is fuzzy increasing or decreasing Gδ/Fσ-set. Proof. Proof is similar to Lemma 2.1. Prorosition 2.5. Let (X, T,≤) be an ordered fuzzy topological space. Then the following statements are equivalent. (a) (X, T,≤) is upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected. (b) If g, h : X → R(I), g is lower fuzzy Gδ-continuous, h is upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous and g ≤ h, then there exists an fuzzy increasing Gδ- continuous function f : (X, T,≤) → R(I) such that g ≤ f ≤ h. (c) If 1−λ is fuzzy increasing Gδ-set, µ is fuzzy decreasing Gδ-set and µ ≤ λ, then there exists fuzzy increasing Gδ-continuous function f : (X, T,≤) → [0, 1](I) such that µ ≤ (1 − L1)f ≤ R0f ≤ λ. Proof. (a) ⇒ (b). Define Hr = Lrh and Gr = (1−Rr)g, r ∈ Q. Thus we have two monotone increasing families of respectively fuzzy decreasing Gδ-sets and fuzzy decreasing Fσ-sets of (X, T,≤). Moreover, Hr ≤ Gs if r < s. By Proposition 2.4, there exists a monotone increasing family {Fr}r∈Q of fuzzy decreasing GδFσ-sets of (X, T,≤) such that Dσ(Hr) ≤ Fs and Fr ≤ D0 σ(Gs) whenever r < s. Letting Vt = ∧r<t(1 − Fr) for all t ∈ R, we define a monotone decreasing family {Vt : t ∈ R} ⊂ IX . 390 Tietze Extension Theorem... Moreover, we have Iσ(Vt) ≤ I0 σ(Vs), whenever s < t. We have ∨ t∈R Vt = ∨ t∈R ∧ r<t (1 − Fr) ≥ ∨ t∈R ∧ r<t (1 − Gr) = ∨ t∈R ∧ r<t g−1(Rr) = ∨ t∈R g−1(Rt) = g−1 ( ∨ t∈R Rt ) = 1. Similarly, ∧t∈RVt = 0. We now define a function f : (X, T,≤) → R(I) satisfying the required properties. Let f(x)(t) = Vt(x) for all x ∈ X and t ∈ R. By the above discussion, it follows that f is well defined. To prove f is fuzzy increasing Gδ-continuous, we observe that ∨ s>t Vs = ∨ s>t I0 σ(Vs), ∧ s<t Vs = ∧ s<t Iσ(Vs). Then f−1(Rt) = ∨ s>t Vs = ∨ s>t I0 σ(Vs) is fuzzy increasing Gδ. Now f−1(1 − Lt) = ∧ s<t Vs = ∧ s<t Iσ(Vs) is fuzzy increasing Fσ so that f is fuzzy increasing Gδ-continuous. To conclude the proof it remains to show that g ≤ f ≤ h, that is g−1(1 − Lt) ≤ f−1(1 − Lt) ≤ h−1(1 − Lt) and g−1(Rt) ≤ f−1(Rt) ≤ h−1(Rt) for each t ∈ R. We have g−1(1 − Lt) = ∧ s<t g−1(1 − Ls) = ∧ s<t ∧ r<s g−1(Rr) = ∧ s<t ∧ r<s (1 − Gr) ≤ ∧ s<t ∧ r<s (1 − Fr) = ∧ s<t Vs = f−1(1 − Lt) and f−1(1 − Lt) = ∧ s<t Vs = ∧ s<t ∧ r<s (1 − Fr) ≤ ∧ s<t ∧ r<s (1 − Hr) = ∧ s<t ∧ r<s h−1(1 − Lr) = ∧ s<t h−1(1 − Ls) = h−1(1 − Lt). E. Roja, M. K. Uma, G. Balasubramanian 391 Similarly, we obtain g−1(Rt) = ∨ s>t g−1(Rs) = ∨ s>t ∨ r>s g−1(Rr) = ∨ s>t ∨ r>s (1 − Gr) ≤ ∨ s>t ∧ r<s (1 − Fr) = ∨ s>t Vs = f−1(Rt) and f−1(Rt) = ∨ s>t Vs = ∨ s>t ∧ r<s (1 − Fr) ≤ ∨ s>t ∨ r>s (1 − Hr) = ∨ s>t ∨ r>s h−1(1 − Lr) = ∨ s>t h−1(Rs) = h−1(Rt). Thus, (b) is proved. (b) ⇒ (c). Suppose 1 − λ is fuzzy increasing Gδ and µ is fuzzy decreasing Gδ, such that µ ≤ λ. Then χµ ≤ χλ, χµ and χλ are lower and upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous functions respectively. Hence by (b), there exists fuzzy increasing Gδ continuous function f : (X, T,≤) → R(I) such that χµ ≤ f ≤ χλ. Clearly, f(x) ∈ [0, 1](I) for all x ∈ X and µ = (1 − L1)χµ ≤ (1 − L1)f ≤ R0f ≤ R0χλ = λ. (c) ⇒ (a). This follows from Proposition 2.3, and the fact that (1−L1)f and R0f are fuzzy decreasing Fσ and fuzzy decreasing Gδ-sets respectively. Hence the result. Remark 2.2. Propositions 2.2–2.5 and Remark 2.1 can be discussed for other cases also. 3. Tietze Extension Theorem for Ordered Fuzzy Gδ-extremally Disconnected Spaces In this section, Tietze extension theorem for ordered fuzzy Gδ-extrem- ally disconnected space is studied. Prorosition 3.1 (Tietze Extension Theorem). Let (X, T,≤) be an upper fuzzy Gδ-extremally disconnected space and let A ⊂ X be such that χA is fuzzy increasing Gδ in (X, T,≤). Let f : (A, T/A) → [0, 1](I) [6] be an increasing fuzzy Gδ-continuous function. Then f has an increasing fuzzy Gδ-continuous extension over (X, T,≤). Proof. Let g, h : X → [0, 1](I) be such that g = f = h on A and g(x) = 〈0〉, h(x) = 〈1〉 if x 6∈ A. 392 Tietze Extension Theorem... We now have Rtg = { µt ∧ χA if t ≥ 0 1 if t < 0 where µt is fuzzy increasing Gδ such that µt/A = Rtf and Lth = { λt ∧ χA if t ≤ 1 1 if t > 1 where λt is increasing fuzzy Gδ such that λt/A = Ltf. Thus, g is lower fuzzy Gδ-continuous, h is upper fuzzy Gδ-continuous and g ≤ h. By Proposition 2.5, there exists an increasing fuzzy Gδ-continuous function F : X → [0, 1](I) such that g ≤ F ≤ h; hence F ≡ f on A. Remark 3.1. The above proposition can be discussed for other cases also. References [1] G. Balasubramanian, Fuzzy disconnectedness and its stronger forms // Indian J. Pure Appl. Math., 24 (1993), 27–30. [2] G.
