Molodtsov [5] introduced the concept of soft set as a new mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties that is free from the difficulties that have troubled the usual theoretical approaches. In this paper we apply the notion of soft sets by Molodtsov to an implicative ideal of BCK-algebras. The notion of implicative soft ideals in BCK-algebras and implicative idealistic soft BCK-algebras is introduced, and related properties are investigated. Relations between implicative soft ideals and commutative (resp. positive implicative) soft ideals are discussed. Also, relations between implicative idealistic soft BCK-algebras and commutative (resp. positive implicative) idealistic soft BCK-algebras are provided.

Molodtsov [12] introduced the concept of soft set as a new mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties that is free from the difficulties that have troubled the usual theoretical approaches. In this paper we apply the notion of soft sets by Molodtsov to commutative ideals of BCK-algebras, The notions of commutative soft ideals and commutative idealistic soft BCK-algebras are introduced, and their basic properties are investigated. Examples to show that there is no relations between positive implicative idealistic soft BCK-algebras and commutative idealistic soft BCK-algebras are provided.

The aim of this article is to lay a foundation for providing a soft algebraic tool in considering many problems that contain uncertainties. In order to provide these soft algebraic structures, the notion of union-soft sets is introduced, and its application to BCK/BCI-algebras is considered. The notions of union-soft algebras, union-soft (commutative) ideals and closed union-soft ideals are introduced, and related properties and relations are investigated. Conditions for a union-soft ideal to be closed are provided. Conditions for a union-soft ideal to be a union-soft commutative ideal are also provided. Characterizations of (closed) union-soft ideals and union-soft commutative ideals are established. Extension property for a union-soft commutative ideal is established.
