The aim of this paper is to develop partitioned Pythagorean fuzzy interaction Bonferroni mean operators based on the Pythagorean fuzzy set, Bonferroni mean, and interaction between membership and nonmembership. Several new aggregation operators are developed including the Pythagorean fuzzy interaction partitioned Bonferroni mean (PFIPBM) operator, the Pythagorean fuzzy weighted interaction partitioned Bonferroni mean (PFWIPBM) operator, the Pythagorean fuzzy interaction partitioned geometric Bonferroni mean (PFIPGBM) operator, and the Pythagorean fuzzy weighted interaction partitioned geometric Bonferroni mean (PFWIPGBM) operator. Some main properties and some special particular cases of the new operators are studied. Many existing operators are the special cases of new aggregation operators. Moreover, a multiple-attribute decision-making method based on the proposed operator has been developed and the investment company selection problem is presented to illustrate feasibility and practical advantages of the new method.
