Abstract
Recently, Qiao gave the concrete form of the continuity of overlap and grouping functions on complete lattices by using meet- and join-preserving properties. By eliminating the property join-preserving (resp. meet-preserving), one gets right (resp. left) continuous functions, namely, CR- (resp. CL-) overlap and grouping functions. In this paper, we extend the notion of ordinal sums of overlap functions from the unit interval to complete lattices directly and indicate it does not necessarily lead to an overlap function. We find that the ordinal sums of finitely many overlap functions can create an overlap function on a frame that can be partitioned into a chain of subintervals. We also investigate ordinal sums of CR- and CL-overlap functions on complete lattices, where the endpoints of summand carriers constitute a chain. Moreover, we have an analogous discussion on grouping functions on complete lattices.
