Abstract

This paper investigates N-bipolar hypersoft topology (N-BHST), a novel extension of both the well-established N-hypersoft topology (N-HST) and hypersoft topology (HST). Deviating significantly from its precursor, the N-bipolar hypersoft (N-BHS) set, N-BHST introduces a multi-opinion approach to decision-making, augmenting robustness and adaptability. This innovative framework addresses identified limitations in N-bipolar soft topology (N-BST), especially in managing multi-argument approximate functions. The study analyzes various operators (closure, interior, exterior, and boundary) within the N-BHST framework, elucidating their interrelationships. Additionally, an examination is carried out on the enhancement of multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) using N-BHST, setting it apart from existing models. A numerical example is presented to illustrate its application in real-world decision scenarios.
