Abstract :
The authors define a partial-ordering relation with respect to ambiguity with the greatest element 1/2 and minimal elements 0, 1 in the set of truth values V={0,1/(p-1),. . ., 1/2,. . ., ( p-2)/(p-1), 1}, and the p-valued logic functions monotonic with respect to ambiguity, based on this ordering relation. A necessary and sufficient condition for p-valued logic functions to be monotonic with respect to ambiguity is presented along with the proofs, and their logic expressions using unary operators defined in the partial-ordering relation are provided
