Abstract

The aim of this paper is to lay a foundation for providing a rough soft tool in considering many problems that contain uncertainties. We put forward the concepts of rough soft rings and rough idealistic soft rings. Some basic operations on rough soft rings are discussed. Some good examples are explored. Special attention is paid to rough prime idealistic soft rings. Finally, we investigate some properties of products and sums of rough soft rings.
