Some duality results on linear programming problems with symmetric fuzzy numbers

Recently, linear programming problems with symmetric fuzzy numbers (LPSFN) have considered by some authors and have proposed a new method for solving these problems without converting to the classical linear programming problem, where the cost coefficients are symmetric fuzzy numbers (see in [4]). Here we extend their results and first prove the optimality theorem and then define the dual problem of LPSFN problem. Furthermore, we give some duality results as a natural extensions of duality results for linear programming problems with crisp data.
