Computability theorists have introduced multiple hierarchies to measure the complexity of sets of natural numbers. The Kleene Hierarchy classifies sets according to the first-order complexity of their defining formulas. The Ershov Hierarchy classifies $Delta^0_2$ sets with respect to the number of mistakes that are needed to approximate them. Biacino and Gerla extended the Kleene Hierarchy to the realm of fuzzy sets, whose membership functions range in a complete lattice $L$ (e.g., the real interval $[0; 1]_mathbb{R}$). In this paper, we combine the Ershov Hierarchy and fuzzy set theory, by introducing and investigating the Fuzzy Ershov Hierarchy. In particular, we focus on the fuzzy $n$-c.e. sets which form the finite levels of this hierarchy. Intuitively, a fuzzy set is $n$-c.e. if its membership function can be approximated by changing monotonicity at most $n-1$ times. We prove that the Fuzzy Ershov Hierarchy does not collapse; that, in analogy with the classical case, each fuzzy $n$-c.e. set can be represented as a Boolean combination of fuzzy c.e. sets; but that, contrary to the classical case, the Fuzzy Ershov Hierarchy does not exhaust the class of all $Delta^0_2$ fuzzy sets.
Computably enumerable equivalence relations (ceers) received a lot of attention in the literature. The standard tool to classify ceers is provided by the computable reducibility $leq_c$. This gives rise to a rich degree-structure. In this paper, we l
This paper presents an original method of fuzzy approximate reasoning that can open a new direction of research in the uncertainty inference of Artificial Intelligence(AI) and Computational Intelligence(CI). Fuzzy modus ponens (FMP) and fuzzy modus t
This paper shows a novel fuzzy approximate reasoning method based on the least common multiple (LCM). Its fundamental idea is to obtain a new fuzzy reasoning result by the extended distance measure based on LCM between the antecedent fuzzy set and th
We continue the study of the virtual large cardinal hierarchy, initiated in Gitman and Schindler (2018), by analysing virtu
We note a parallel between some ideas of stable model theory and certain topics in finite combinatorics related to the sum-product phenomenon. For a simple linear group G, we show that a finite subset X with |X X ^{-1} X |/ |X| bounded is close to a
