Abstract

A set function is a function whose domain is the power set of a set, which is assumed to be finite in this paper. We treat a possibly nonadditive set function, i.e., a set function which does not satisfy necessarily additivity, ϕ(A)+ϕ(B)=ϕ(A∪B) forA∩B=∅, as an element of the linear space on the power set. Then some of the famous classes of set functions are polyhedral in that linear space, i.e., expressed by a finite number of linear inequalities. We specify the sets of the coefficients of the linear inequalities for some classes of set functions. Then we consider the following three problems: (a) the domain extension problem for nonadditive set functions, (b) the sandwich problem for nonadditive set functions, and (c) the representation problem of a binary relation by a nonadditive set function, i.e., the problem of nonadditive comparative probabilities.
