Abstract

The aim of this paper is to construct a complete metric space of fuzzy valued image functions and to define a fractal transform operator T. Contraction of T is guarantees the existence of its fixed point. A fuzzy point is considered for this purpose as a crisp point and approached through classical method on proving the completeness of the space.
