1. INTRODUCTION
The notion of BCK/BCI-algebras was introduced by Imai and Iseki in 1966.In the same year Iseki
introduced the notion of a BCI-algebras which is a generalization of a BCK-algebras. After the
introduction of the concept of fuzzy sets by L.A. Zadeh [7],several researches were conducted on the
generalization of the fuzzy sets. The idea of intuitionistic fuzzy set was first introduced by K.T.Atanassov
[1,2], as a generalization of the notion of fuzzy set. In this paper using Atanassov’s idea ,we establish the
intuitionistic fuzzification of the concept of sub-implicative ideals in BCI-algebras and investigate some of
their properties .
2. PRELIMINARIES
In this section we include some elementary definitions that are necessary for this paper.
By a BCI- algebra we mean an algebra (X,*,0 ) of type (2,0) satisfying the following conditions:
(1) ((x * y) * (x * z)) * (z * y) = 0,
(2) (x * (x * y)) * y = 0,
(3) x * x = 0,
(4) x * y = 0 and y * x = 0 imply x = y, for all x ,y ,zX.
In a BCI-algebra X, we can define a partial ordering “ ” by putting x y if and only if
x* y = 0.A BCI-algebra X is said to be implicative if (x * (x * y) * (y * x) = y * (y * x) for all
x ,y X. A mapping f: X Y of BCI-algebras is called a homomorphism if
f(x*y) = f(x) * f(y) for all x ,y X.
In any BCI- algebra X ,the following hold :
(5) ((x * z) * (y * z)) * (x * y) = 0,
(6) x * (x * (x * y)) = x * y,
(7) 0 * (x * y) = (0 * x) * (0 * y),
(8) x * 0 = x,
(9) (x * y) * z = (x * z) * y,
(10) x y implies x * z y * z and z * y z * x, for all x ,y, z X.

Definition 2.2 An non-empty subset A of X is a positive implicative ideal of X if for all
x X ,

Definition 2.4 [ 7 ]. Let X be a non-empty set. A fuzzy set in X is a function
: X [ 0, 1 ].
Definition 2.5 [7 ]. Let be a fuzzy set in X. For t [0,1],the set t ={ x X (x) t} is called a level
subset of .
Definition 2.6 . A fuzzy set in X is called a fuzzy ideal of X if
(1) ( 0) ( x),
(2) ( x ) ≥ min{ (x * y ), ( y )} , for all x, y X.
For any elements x ,y of a BCI-algebra , xn * y denotes
x * (…* (x * (x * y))…..) in which x occurs n times.

Definition 2.8 [ 2 ]. An intuitionistic fuzzy set ( IFS ) A in a non empty set X is an object having the form
A ={ < x, A (x), A( x) > / x X }, where the functions A : X [ 0,1] and A : X [0,1] denote
the degree of membership and the degree of non membership of each element x X to the set A,
respectively, and 0 ≤ A (x) + A(x) ≤ 1 for all x X.

a -level t -cut and - level t-cut of A , respectively.
3. INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY SUB-IMPLICATIVE IDEALS
Definition 3.1. An intuitionistic fuzzy set A in X is called an intuitionistic fuzzy
sub-implicative ideal of X if it satisfies:
(1) A ( 0 ) A ( x ) ,
(2) A ( 0 ) A ( x ) ,
(3) A ( y2 * x ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )},
(4) A ( y2 * x ) ≤ max {A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )} for all x ,y, zX.
Example 3.2.Let X = { 0,1,2 } with the following Cayley table be a BCI algebra.

Let A= < A, A > be an IFS in X defined by
A(0) = A (1) = 0.6, A (2) = 0.2 and A(0) = A (1) = 0.2 and A (2) = 0.6. Then A is an intuitionistic
fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X.
Theorem 3.3. Let A be an intuitionistic fuzzy set in X satisfying
A (0) A (x) and A (0) A (x). If A is an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X , then A
satisfies the following inequality
A ( y2 * x ) ≥ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x)) and A ( y2 * x ) ≤ A ( ( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) for all
x ,y X.
Proof. Let A be an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X. Then
A ( y2 * x ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x)) * z) , A ( z )},
and
A ( y2 * x ) ≤ max {A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}
Taking z = 0 we get
A ( y2 * x ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * 0) , A ( 0 )}

= A ( ( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) , A ( 0 )}
= A ( ( x2 * y) * (y * x) )
and
A ( y2 * x ) ≤ max{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * 0) , A ( 0 )}
= A ( ( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) , A ( 0 )}
= A ( ( x2 * y) * (y * x) )
Theorem3.4. Every intuitionistic fuzzy sub- implicative ideal of X is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal.
Proof. Let A be an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X. Then
(i) A ( 0 ) A ( x ) ,
(ii) A ( 0 ) A ( x ) ,
(iii) A ( y2 * x ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )},
(iv ) A ( y2 * x ) ≤ max {A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )} for all x ,y, z X.
Putting y = x in (iii)and (iv),we get
A (x ) = A ( x2 * x )
≥ min{ { A ( (( x2 * x) * (x * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}
= min{ { A ( x * z) , A ( z )}
A (x ) = A ( x2 * x )
max{ { A ( (( x2 * x) * (x * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}
= max{ { A ( x * z) , A ( z )}
for all x ,z X.
Hence A is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal.
Theorem 3.5. An intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X may not be an intuitionistic fuzzy
sub- implicative ideal.
Proof. Let X = { 0,a,b,c } with the following Cayley table be a BCI- algebra.

Let A= < A, A > be an IFS in X defined by
A(0) = 0.7 and A (x) = 0.2 for all x ≠ 0 and A(0) = 0.2 and
A (x) = 0.7 for all x ≠ 0.Then A is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X. ,but it is not an intuitionistic fuzzy
sub-implicative ideal of X because
A ( a2* b) < min{ A( ((b2 * a) * ( a * b )) * 0), A (0)}
A ( a2* b) > max{ A ( ((b2 * a) * ( a * b )) * 0), A (0)}

A ( y2 * x ) ≥ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) and A ( y2 * x ) ≤ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) is an intuitionistic fuzzy subimplicative ideal of X.
Proof. Let A be an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X satisfying
A ( y2 * x ) ≥ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) and A ( y2 * x ) ≤ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) )
A ( y2 * x ) ≥ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) )
≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * x) * (x * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}
A ( y2 * x ) ≤ A (( x2 * y) * (y * x) )
≤ max{ A ( (( x2 * x) * (x * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}
This completes the proof.
Definition 3.7 An intuitionistic fuzzy set A in X is called an intuitionistic fuzzy positive implicative ideal
of X if
(i) A (0) A (x),
(ii) A (0) A (x),
(iii) A ( x * z ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x * z) * z) * (y * z) ) , A ( y )},
(iv ) A (x * z ) ≤ max {A ( ((x * z) * z) * (y * z) ) , A ( y )} for all x ,y, z X.

Let A = < A, A > be an IFS in X defined by
A(0) = 0.7 and A (x) = 0.2 for all x ≠ 0 and A(0) = 0.2 and
A (x) = 0.7 for all x ≠ 0.Then A is an intuitionistic fuzzy positive implicative ideal of X.
Theorem 3.9.Every intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal is an intuitionistic fuzzy positive implicative
ideal.
Proof. Let A be an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X. Then A is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of
X. From Theorem 3.3
A ( b2 * a ) ≥ A (( a2 * b) * (b * a)) and A ( b2 * a ) ≤ A ( ( b2 * a) * (b * a) ) for all
a ,bX.
Substituting x*y for a and x for b we have
A ( x * y ) = A ( x * (x * (x * y)))
= A(b2* a)
≥ A (( a2 * b) * (b * a))
= A(((x * y) * (( x *y) * x))) * (x * ( x * y)))
= A(((x *y) * ( x * (x * y))) * ((x * y) * x))

= A(((x * (x * (x * y))) * y) * ((x * x) * y))
= A(((x * y) * y) * (0 * y))
A ( x *y ) = A ( x * (x * (x * y)))
= A (b2* a)
≤ A (( a2 * b) * (b * a))
= A (((x * y) * (( x * y) * x))) * (x * ( x * y)))
= A (((x * y) * ( x * (x * y))) * ((x * y) * x))
= A (((x * (x * (x * y))) * y) * (( x * x) * y))
= A (((x * y) * y) * (0 * y))
Hence A is an intuitionistic fuzzy positive implicative ideal of X.
Definition3.10 An intuitionistic fuzzy set A in X is called an intuitionistic fuzzy p-ideal of X if
(0) A (x),
(ii) A (0) A (x),
(iii) A (x) ≥ min{ A (( x * z) * (y * z) ) , A ( y )},
(iv ) A (x ) ≤ max {A ((x * z) * (y * z) ) , A ( y )} for all x ,y, z X.
(i) A
Theorem 3.11 . An intuitionistic fuzzy p- ideal of X is an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X,
but the converse does not hold.
Proof. Suppose that A is an intuitionistic fuzzy p- ideal of X . Then it is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X.
Note that
(02 * (y2 * x)) * (x2* y) * (y * x)) = (0 * ((x2 * y) * (y * x))) * (0 * (y2 * x))
= ((0 * ((x2 * y)) * (0 * (y * x))) * ((0 * y) * (0 * (y * x)))
= (((0 * x) * (0 * ((x * y))) * (0 * (y * x))) * ((0 * y) * (0 * (y * x)))
≤ (((0 * x) * (0 * ((x * y))) * (0 * y)
= ((0 * x) * (0 * y)) * (0 * (x * y))
=0
Since in an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal A = < A, A>, A is order reversing and
and A is order preserving
A(y2* x) ≥ A(02* (y2 * x))
≥ min{ A((02* (y2* x)) * ((x2* y) * (y * x))) , A((x2* y) * (y * x))}
≥ min{ A(0) , A((x2* y) * (y * x))}
= A((x2* y) * (y * x))
A (y2* x) ≤ A (02* (y2 * x))
≤ max{A ((02* (y2* x) ) * ((x2* y) * (y * x))) , A ((x2* y) * (y * x))}
≤ max{A (0) , A ((x2* y) * (y * x))}
= A ((x2 * y) * (y * x))
Hence A is an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal.
Example 3.12.Let X = { 0,a,1,2,3 } with the following Cayley table be a BCI- algebra.

Let A= < A, A > be an IFS in X defined by
A(0) = 0.7, A(a) = 0.5 A (1) = A (2) = A (3) = 0.2 and
A(0) = 0.2, A (a) = 0.5,A (1) = A (2) = A (3) = 0.7. Then A is an intuitionistic fuzzy ideal of X. in
which the inequalities A(y2* x) ≥ A(y2* x) * (y* x)) and A (y2* x) ≤ A (y2*x)*(y*x)) hold for all x ,y X .
A is an intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X by Theorem 3.7.
But it is not an intuitionistic fuzzy p- ideal of X, since
A(a) < min{ A((a *1) * (0 * 1)) , A (0)}
A (a) > max{A ((a *1) * (0 * 1)) , A (0)}
The proof is complete.
Theorem 3.13. For any intuitionistic fuzzy sub-implicative ideal of X, the set
XA={ xX A(x) = A(0) and A (x) = A (0) } is a sub-implicative ideal.
Proof. Clearly 0XA. Let x ,y, z X be such that ((x2 * y) * (y * x)) * z XA and
zXA. Then A ( y2 * x ) ≥ min{ A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x) ) * z) , A ( z )}= A(0)and
A ( y2 * x ) ≤ max {A ( (( x2 * y) * (y * x)) * z) , A (z)}= A (0) for all x ,y, zX.
which implies A ( y2 * x) = A (0) and A ( y2 * x ) = A (0).That is , y2 * x XA
Therefore XA is a sub-implicative ideal of X.
