Abstract

In this paper we present a connection between intuitionistic fuzzy relations and hypergroups. In particular, we construct a hypergroup associated with a binary relation naturally induced by an intuitionistic fuzzy relation. We present some of its properties, investigating when it is a join space or a reduced hypergroup, in the framework of the intuitionistic fuzzy preference relations.
