Autocontinuity and convergence theorems for the Choquet integral

Our aim is to provide some convergence theorems for the Choquet integral with respect to various notions of convergence. For instance, the dominated convergence theorem for almost uniform convergence is related to autocontinuous set functions. Autocontinuity can also be related to convergence in measure, strict convergence or mean convergence. Whereas the monotone convergence theorem for almost uniform convergence is related to monotone autocontinuity, a weaker version than autocontinuity.

On the Minkowski-H\"{o}lder type inequalities for generalized Sugeno integrals with an application

In this paper, we use a new method to obtain the necessary and sufficient condition guaranteeing the validity of the Minkowski-H\"{o}lder type inequality for the generalized upper Sugeno integral in the case of functions belonging to a wider class than the comonotone functions. As a by-product, we show that the Minkowski type inequality for seminormed fuzzy integral presented by Daraby and Ghadimi in General Minkowski type and related inequalities for seminormed fuzzy integrals, Sahand Communications in Mathematical Analysis 1 (2014) 9--20 is not true. Next, we study the Minkowski-H\"{o}lder inequality for the lower Sugeno integral and the class of $\mu$-subadditive functions introduced in On Chebyshev type inequalities for generalized Sugeno integrals, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 244 (2014) 51--62. The results are applied to derive new metrics on the space of measurable functions in the setting of nonadditive measure theory. We also give a partial answer to the open problem 2.22 posed by Borzov\'a-Moln\'arov\'a and et al in The smallest semicopula-based universal integrals I: Properties and characterizations, Fuzzy Sets and Systems 271 (2015) 1--17.Comment: 19 page

Representation of maxitive measures: an overview

Idempotent integration is an analogue of Lebesgue integration where $\sigma$-maxitive measures replace $\sigma$-additive measures. In addition to reviewing and unifying several Radon--Nikodym like theorems proven in the literature for the idempotent integral, we also prove new results of the same kind.Comment: 40 page

Commutative POVMs and Fuzzy Observables

In this paper we review some properties of fuzzy observables, mainly as realized by commutative positive operator valued measures. In this context we discuss two representation theorems for commutative positive operator valued measures in terms of projection valued measures and describe, in some detail, the general notion of fuzzification. We also make some related observations on joint measurements.Comment: Contribution to the Pekka Lahti Festschrif

From probability to sequences and back

This is a survey covering sequential structures and their applications to the foundations of probability theory. Sequential convergence, convergence groups and the extension of sequentially continuous maps belong to general topology and Trieste for long has been a center of sequential topology. We begin with some personal reflections, con- tinue with topological problems motivated by the extension of probability measures, and close with some recent results related to the categorical foundations of probability theory
