Group decision-making methods based on hesitant N-soft sets

作者：

Highlights：

• We introduce the new hybrid model called hesitant N-soft sets.

• We investigate their properties and define fundamental operations on them.

• The concept of hesitant N-soft set is illustrated with real life examples.

• This model provides additional justification of the notion of hesitancy.
