Abstract

A Pythagorean fuzzy set model is more useful than intuitionistic fuzzy set model to handle the imprecise information involving both membership and nonmembership degrees, and a soft set is an other parameterized point of view for handling the vagueness. A Pythagorean fuzzy soft graph is considered more capable than intuitionistic fuzzy soft graph for representing the parametric relationships between objects, and the Dombi operators with operational parameters have creditable extensibility. Based on these two notions, we propose the concept of Pythagorean Dombi fuzzy soft graph (PDFSG). We describe certain concepts of graph theory under Pythagorean Dombi fuzzy soft environment. Further, we define the degree sequence and degree set in PDFSG, and the concept of edge regular PDFSG with consequential properties. Moreover, we illustrate the examples in decision making including selection of suitable ETL software for a business intelligence project and evaluation of electronics companies. Finally, we present the comparison analysis of our proposed model to show the superiority than existing model.
