An explicit formula for the number of distinct fuzzy subgroups of the cartesian product of the dihedral group of order 2n with a cyclic group of order 2

Abstract

The problem of classification of fuzzy subgroups can be extended from finite p-groups to finite nilpotent groups. Accordingly, any finite nilpotent group can be uniquely written as a direct product of p-groups. In this paper, we give explicit formulae for the number of distinct fuzzy subgroups of the Cartesian product of the dihedral group of order 2n with a cyclic group of order 2.
