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, w A.qw B.s w AjB. for AlBsB, 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.
