Abstract

Molodtsov initiated the concept of soft set as a new mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties. In 2003, Maji put forward several notions on Soft Set Theory. However, the axioms of exclusion and contradiction are not valid under the definition of complement of a soft set initiated by Maji. In this paper, we reintroduce the concept of complement of a soft set and show that the laws of exclusion and contradiction, Involution, De Morgan Inclusions and De Morgan laws are valid for soft sets with respect to our new definition of complement. We justify our claim with proof and examples.
