What are you trying to say? Give us some more context.
Regardless, on its own, that sounds awkward. Is this part of a larger sentence? Like "If any of the members are not shown up >something<"
A guess, not knowing what you're talking about:
"Some of the members have not shown up."
"Are not" is for something someone does to someone or something. 타동사
"Have not" is for something you do yourself, or for passive voice. 자동사/수동형

it's grammatically wrong.
if you're composing a statement, you can say it in any of these:
"none of the members has shown up"
"not anyone of the members has shown up"
"not any of the members has shown up"
the statement you composed is wrong becuse you actually meant "there was none of the members that showed up". so if you say the word 'any', and add the word 'not', they should be stated together in stating negative statements. also, because you meant to use the present perfect tense: you should use 'has shownvup' instead of 'are shown up'.

Simply say,
"Has anybody shown up?"
or
"Are any of the members showing up?"
when forming a question, the verb usual go first except when you use, HOW, WHEN , WHY, WHAT, WHERE.
and it's not necessary to use 'not'.

Any of the members has not shown up. Present perfect tense, so for word _any _takes auxillary verb has not show up.

it sounds like you are speaking in the present tense, so it should be any of the members are not showing up.
