Trapezoidal Fully Fuzzy Sylvester Matrix Equation with Arbitrary Coefficients
Abstract Almost every existing method for solving trapezoidal fully fuzzy Sylvester matrix equation restricts the coefficient matrix and the solution to be positive fuzzy numbers only. In this paper, we develop new analytical methods to solve a trapezoidal fully fuzzy Sylvester matrix equation with restricted and unrestricted coefficients. The trapezoidal fully fuzzy Sylvester matrix equation is transferred to a system of crisp equations based on the sign of the coefficients by using Ahmd arithmetic multiplication operations between trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The constructed method not only obtain a simple crisp system of linear equation that can be solved by any classical methods but also provide a widen the scope of the trapezoidal fully fuzzy Sylvester matrix equation in scientific applications. Furthermore, these methods have less steps and conceptually easy to understand when compared with existing methods. To illustrate the proposed methods numerical examples are solved.
