AE solutions to two-sided interval linear systems over max-plus algebra. (English) Zbl 1498.15003

Summary: This paper introduces a concept of AE solutions to two-sided interval max-plus linear systems, a rather general concept which includes many known concepts of solutions to interval systems, in particular, weak, strong, tolerance and control solutions as its special cases. We state full characterizations of AE solutions for the two-sided interval max-plus systems, including both linear inequalities and linear equations. Moreover, we provide a specific example to illustrate an efficient method of finding the AE solution set.
