We obtain the interval-valued fuzzy subgroups generated by interval-valued fuzzy sets and some properties preserved by a ring homomorphism. Furthermore, we introduce the concepts of interval-valued fuzzy coset and study some of it's properties.

We study some properties of interval-valued fuzzy normal subgroups of a group. In particular, we obtain two characterizations of interval-valued fuzzy normal subgroups. Moreover, we introduce the concept of an interval-valued fuzzy coset and obtain several results which are analogous of some basic theorems of group theory.

First, we prove a number of results about interval-valued fuzzy groups involving the notions of interval-valued fuzzy cosets and interval-valued fuzzy normal subgroups which are analogs of important results from group theory. Also, we introduce analogs of some group-theoretic concepts such as characteristic subgroup, normalizer and abelian groups. Secondly, we prove that if A is an interval-valued fuzzy subgroup of a group G such that the index of A is the smallest prime dividing the order of G, then A is an interval-valued fuzzy normal subgroup. Finally, we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence the interval-valued fuzzy cosets of an interval-valued fuzzy subgroup A of a group G and the cosets of a certain subgroup H of G.
