Abstract

Abstract : Polygroups are an extended form of groups and a subclass of hypergroups that follow group-type axioms. In this paper, we define a triplet single-valued neutrosophic set, which is a generalization of fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, and neutrosophic sets, and we combine this novel concept with hypergroups and polygroups. Firstly, the main goal of this paper is to introduce hypergroups, polygroups, and anti-polygroups under a triplet single-valued neutrosophic structure and then present various profound results. We also examine the interaction and properties of level sets of triplet single-valued neutrosophic polygroups and (normal) subpolygroups. Secondly, we rank the alternatives and select the best ones in a single-valued neutrosophic environment using the weighted cosine similarity measure between each alternative and the ideal alternative. Finally, we provide an example that clearly shows how the proposed decision-making method is applied.
