TL;DR: The relation between soft element-wise field and soft int-field has been established and then some properties of softint-field are studied and the notions of soft algebraic element and soft purely inseparable element of a soft Int-field extension are defined.

Abstract: The soft set theory offers a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertain, fuzzy, not clearly defined objects. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the basic notions of the theory of soft sets, to present the first results of the theory, and to discuss some problems of the future.

TL;DR: The authors define equality of two soft sets, subset and super set of a soft set, complement of asoft set, null soft set and absolute soft set with examples and De Morgan's laws and a number of results are verified in soft set theory.
Abstract: In this paper, the authors study the theory of soft sets initiated by Molodtsov. The authors define equality of two soft sets, subset and super set of a soft set, complement of a soft set, null soft set, and absolute soft set with examples. Soft binary operations like AND, OR and also the operations of union, intersection are defined. De Morgan's laws and a number of results are verified in soft set theory.

TL;DR: This paper points out that several assertions in a previous paper by Maji et al. are not true in general, and gives some new notions such as the restricted intersection, the restricted union, therestricted difference and the extended intersection of two soft sets.
Abstract: Molodtsov introduced the theory of soft sets, which can be seen as a new mathematical approach to vagueness. In this paper, we first point out that several assertions (Proposition 2.3 (iv)-(vi), Proposition 2.4 and Proposition 2.6 (iii), (iv)) in a previous paper by Maji et al. [P.K. Maji, R. Biswas, A.R. Roy, Soft set theory, Comput. Math. Appl. 45 (2003) 555-562] are not true in general, by counterexamples. Furthermore, based on the analysis of several operations on soft sets introduced in the same paper, we give some new notions such as the restricted intersection, the restricted union, the restricted difference and the extended intersection of two soft sets. Moreover, we improve the notion of complement of a soft set, and prove that certain De Morgan's laws hold in soft set theory with respect to these new definitions.

TL;DR: A possible fusion of fuzzy sets and rough sets is proposed to obtain a hybrid model called rough soft sets, based on a Pawlak approximation space, and a concept called soft–rough fuzzy sets is initiated, which extends Dubois and Prade's rough fuzzy sets.
Abstract: Theories of fuzzy sets and rough sets are powerful mathematical tools for modelling various types of uncertainty. Dubois and Prade investigated the problem of combining fuzzy sets with rough sets. Soft set theory was proposed by Molodtsov as a general framework for reasoning about vague concepts. The present paper is devoted to a possible fusion of these distinct but closely related soft computing approaches. Based on a Pawlak approximation space, the approximation of a soft set is proposed to obtain a hybrid model called rough soft sets. Alternatively, a soft set instead of an equivalence relation can be used to granulate the universe. This leads to a deviation of Pawlak approximation space called a soft approximation space, in which soft rough approximations and soft rough sets can be introduced accordingly. Furthermore, we also consider approximation of a fuzzy set in a soft approximation space, and initiate a concept called soft---rough fuzzy sets, which extends Dubois and Prade's rough fuzzy sets. Further research will be needed to establish whether the notions put forth in this paper may lead to a fruitful theory.
