Complex fuzzy logic is a new multivalued logic system that has emerged in the last decade. At this time, there are a limited number of known instances of complex fuzzy logic, and only a partial exploration of their properties. There has also been relatively little progress in developing interpretations of complex-valued membership grades. In this paper, we address both problems by examining the recently developed Pythagorean fuzzy sets (a generalization of intuitionistic fuzzy sets). We first characterize two lattices that have been suggested for Pythagorean fuzzy sets and then extend these results to the unit disc of the complex plane. We thereby identify two new complete, distributive lattices over the unit disc, and explore interpretations of them based on fuzzy antonyms and negations.
