Capacities on a finite lattice

Machida, Motoya

Original · EN

In his influential work Choquet systematically studied capacities on Boolean algebras in a topological space, and gave a probabilistic interpretation for completely monotone (and completely alternating) capacities. Beyond complete monotonicity we can view a capacity as a marginal condition for probability distribution over the distributive lattice of dual order ideals. In this paper we discuss a combinatorial approach when capacities are defined over a finite lattice, and investigate Fréchet bounds given the marginal condition, probabilistic interpretation of difference operators, and stochastic inequalities with completely monotone capacities.
