Soft set was introduced soft set in 1999 as a model to capture uncertainties. Recently, Smarandache introduced a notion which he calls hyper soft set. In soft set theory a soft is associated with a function which assigns a subset of the universe of discourse to each parameter.
In case of hyper soft sets, also we have a function which associates every parametric value tuple with a subset of the universe of discourse.
As claimed by Smarandache, his notion generalises an earlier notion of Gamma soft sets. That is when number of parameters is 2 we gat Gamma soft sets.
But, as dealt by the authors of Gama soft set, the second component is a fixed set of parameters. This does not seem to be the case of hyper soft sets.
So, my query is why the notion of Smarandache be called as hyper soft set. It would have been termed so if we are getting soft set when the number of parameters is reduced to 1.
I would like to get inputs from researchers in soft set theory as well as hyper soft set theory.
