We present new results in the calculus for fuzzy-valued functions of a single real variable. We adopt extensively the midpoint-radius representation of intervals in the real half-plane and show its usefulness in fuzzy calculus. Concepts related to convergence and limits, continuity, level-wise gH-differentiability of first and second orders have nice and useful midpoint expressions. Using mid-point representation of fuzzy-valued functions, partial orders and properties of monotonicity and convexity are discussed and analysed in detail. Periodicity is easy to represent and identify. Graphical examples and pictures accompany the presentation.

Abstract
We present new results in the calculus for fuzzy-valued functions of a single real variable. We adopt extensively the midpoint-radius representation of intervals in the real half-plane and show its usefulness in fuzzy calculus. Concepts related to convergence and limits, continuity, level-wise gH-differentiability of first and second orders have nice and useful midpoint expressions. Using mid-point representation of fuzzy-valued functions, partial orders and properties of monotonicity and convexity are discussed and analysed in detail. Periodicity is easy to represent and identify. Graphical examples and pictures accompany the presentation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
