Hamacher interaction aggregation operators for complex intuitionistic fuzzy sets and their applications in green supply chain management

Abstract

Abstract A complex intuitionistic fuzzy (CIF) set contains the membership and non-membership in the shape of a complex number whose amplitude term and phase term are covered in the unit interval. Moreover, Hamacher interaction aggregation operators are the combination of two major operators, called Hamacher aggregation operators and interaction aggregation operators, and they are used to aggregate the collection of information into one value. In this manuscript, we present the concept of Hamacher interaction operational laws for CIF sets (CIFSs). Further, we develop the CIF Hamacher interaction weighted averaging (CIFHIWA) operator, CIF Hamacher interaction ordered weighted averaging (CIFHIOWA) operator, CIF Hamacher interaction weighted geometric (CIFHIWG) operator, and CIF Hamacher interaction ordered weighted geometric (CIFHIOWG) operator. For these operators, we also discuss some basic properties, such as idempotency, monotonicity, and boundedness. Additionally, we develop a MADM method based on the developed operators and apply it to solve the green supply chain management problems, which can implement environmentally friendly practices to minimize carbon emissions, resource consumption, and waste generation while promoting long-term sustainability. Finally, we verify the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method based on a comparative analysis between the proposed techniques and existing methods.
