In this article, we proposed new Pythagorean trapezoidal uncertain linguistic fuzzy aggregation information—namely, the Pythagorean trapezoidal uncertain linguistic fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging (PTULFEWA) operator, the Pythagorean trapezoidal uncertain linguistic fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted averaging (PTULFEOWA) operator, and the Pythagorean trapezoidal uncertain linguistic fuzzy Einstein hybrid weighted averaging (PTULFEHWA) operator—using the Einstein operational laws. We studied some important properties of the suggested aggregation operators and showed that the PTULFEHWA is more general than the other proposed operators, which simplifies these aggregation operators. Furthermore, we presented a multiple attribute group decision making (MADM) process for the proposed aggregation operators under the Pythagorean trapezoidal uncertain linguistic fuzzy (PTULF) environment. A numerical example was constructed to determine the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed approach. Lastly, a comparative analysis was performed of the presented approach with existing approaches to show that the proposed method is consistent and provides more information that may be useful for complex problems in the decision-making process.

Hesitant fuzzy set (HFS), a generalization of fuzzy set (FS), permits the membership degree of an element of a set to be represented as several possible values between 0 and 1. In this paper, motivated by the extension principle of HFs, we export Einstein operations on FSs to HFs, and develop some new aggregation operators, such as the hesitant fuzzy Einstein weighted geometric operator, hesitant fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted geometric operator, and hesitant fuzzy Einstein hybrid weighted geometric operator, for aggregating hesitant fuzzy elements. In addition, we discuss the correlations between the proposed aggregation operators and the existing ones respectively. Finally, we apply the hesitant fuzzy Einstein weighted geometric operator to multiple attribute group decision making with hesitant fuzzy information. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the proposed aggregation operators.
