Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
Abstract
In this paper, we present equivalent characterizations of k-kernel symmetric (k-KS) Quadri Partitioned Neutrosophic Fuzzy Matrices (QPNFMs). Additionally, we establish the necessary and sufficient conditions for the Schur complement (SC) within a k-KS QPNFM to be k-symmetric. The study also offers equivalent characterizations of both KS and k-KS QPNFMs. A few fundamental examples of KS QPNFMs are provided to clarify these concepts. It is shown that although k-symmetry implies k-KS, the converse does not necessarily hold. Several fundamental properties of k-KS QPNFMs are also derived. Finally, decision-making model utilizing QPNSMs has been successfully developed and validated through its application to real-world problems.
