N2 - We investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems in which attribute values take the form of interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy information. Firstly, some operational laws for interval-valued dual hesitation fuzzy elements (IVDHFEs) based on Einstein operations are developed. Then we develop some aggregation operators based on Einstein operations: the interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging (IVDHFEWA) operator, interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted averaging (IVDHFEOWA) operator, interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein hybrid averaging (IVDHFEHA) operator, interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein weighted geometric (IVDHFEWG) operator, interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein ordered weighted geometric (IVDHFEOWG) operator, and interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy Einstein hybrid geometric (IVDHFEHG) operator. Furthermore, we discuss some desirable properties of these operators, and investigate the relationship between the developed operators and the existing ones. Based on the IVDHFEWA operator, an approach to MADM problems is proposed under the interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy environment. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the application of the developed method, and a comparison analysis is conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
