In this paper, we advance the study of plithogenic hypersoft set (PHSS).We present four classifications of PHSS that are based on the number of attributes chosen for application and the nature of alternatives or that of attribute value degree of appurtenance. These four PHSS classifications cover most of the fuzzy and neutrosophic cases that can have neutrosophic applications in symmetry. We also make explanations with an illustrative example for demonstrating these four classifications. We then propose a novel multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) method that is based on PHSS, as an extension of the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS).

International Journal of Neutrosophic Science (IJNS) is a peer-review journal publishing high quality experimental and theoretical research in all areas of Neutrosophic and its Applications. Papers concern with neutrosophic logic and mathematical structures in the neutrosophic setting. Besides providing emphasis on topics like artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, image processing, robotics, decision making, data analysis, data mining, applications of neutrosophic mathematical theories contributions to economics, finance, management, industries, electronics, and communications are promoted.

The environmental disarray caused by plastic usage alarms the world leaders to join hands in making coordinated efforts in creating a green globe to support environment for the future generation. The responsibility of promoting environmental sustainability is not confined to government alone as all the producer companies have equal share in mitigating the plastic waste. One of the ideal strategies of environmental conservation practiced by many of the nations at recent times is extended producer’s responsibility (EPR). This research work purposes in building a multi-criteria decision-making model integrating the methods of MACBETH (Measuring attractiveness through a categorical-based evaluation technique) and MAIRCA (Multi Attributive Ideal-Real Comparative Analysis) in plithogenic environment to make optimal decisions on the plastic recycling methods subjected to four core criteria in EPR context. The efficiency of the newly developed integrated model is determined by comparing the model with other models integrating MAIRCA with the methods of CRITIC (CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation) & FUCOM (Full Consistency Method). The sensitivity analysis helps in listing the merits and limitations of the proposed integrated model and also the consistency of the criterion weights and the ranking of the alternatives are checked.

“Neutrosophic Sets and Systems” has been created for publications on advanced studies in neutrosophy, neutrosophic set, neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic probability, neutrosophic statistics that started in 1995 and their applications in any field, such as the neutrosophic structures developed in algebra, geometry, topology, etc.

Convexity plays an imperative role in optimization, pattern classiffication and recognition, image processing and many other relating topics in different fields of mathematical sciences like operation research, numerical analysis etc. The concept of soft sets was first formulated by Molodtsov as a completely new mathematical tool for solving problems dealing with uncertainties. Smarandache conceptualized hypersoft set as a generalization of soft set. Deli introduced the concept of convexity cum concavity on soft sets to cover above topics under uncertain scenario. In this study, a theoretic and analytical approach is employed to develop a conceptual framework of convexity concavity on hypersoft set which is generalized and more effective concept to deal with optimization relating problems.
