Summary

The paper presents some of the issues concerning a formal description of rough sets. We require the indiscernibility relation to be a tolerance of the carrier, not an equivalence relation, as in the Pawlak’s classical approach. As a tool for formalization we use the Mizar system, which is equipped with the largest formalized library of mathematical facts. This uniform and computer-checked for correctness framework seems to present a satisfactory level of generality and may be used by other systems as well as it is easily readable for humans.

Many thanks are due to Anna Gomolińska for the motivation for this work.
