Abstract

Soft set theory, proposed by Molodtsov, has been regarded as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties. Research on soft set has received much attention in recent years. In this paper, we first give the notions of soft relation and fuzzy soft relation. Furthermore, the concepts of projection and section of soft relation are introduced and in the meantime, some of their properties are studied. Moreover, we define fuzzy soft linear transformation and get some conclusions.
