Triangular norms. Position paper I: basic analytical and algebraic properties

We present the basic analytical and algebraic properties of triangular norms. We discuss continuity as well as the important classes of Archimedean, strict and nilpotent t-norms. Triangular conorms and De Morgan triples are also mentioned. Finally, a brief historical survey on triangular norms is given.
