aggregation function; overrunning and underrunning property; sub-additive and super-additive transformation
Summary:
For an aggregation function $A$ we know that it is bounded by $A^*$ and $A_*$ which are its super-additive and sub-additive transformations, respectively. Also, it is known that if $A^*$ is directionally convex, then $A=A^*$ and $A_*$ is linear; similarly, if $A_*$ is directionally concave, then $A=A_*$ and $A^*$ is linear. We generalize these results replacing the directional convexity and concavity conditions by the weaker assumptions of overrunning a super-additive function and underrunning a sub-additive function, respectively.
