Motivation

Multivariate distributions take into account the dependence between the variables. Possible dependence between the variables: independence, comonotonicity, countermonotonicity, . . . What happens when we have imprecise information? Independence for imprecise probabilities has already been studied. And what about comonotonicity?

Comonotone random variables

Let (X, Y ) be a random vector defined on X × Y, and denote by PX,Y its probability distribution. PX,Y is called comonotone when the following equivalent conditions hold: For any (x, y) ∈ X × Y, either P(X ≤ x, Y > y) = 0 or P(X > x, Y ≤ y) = 0. The support of PX,Y is an increasing subset of R2. FX,Y(x, y) = min(FX(x), FY(y)) for any (x, y).

Comonotone lower probabilities

Assume that P : P(X × Y) → [0, 1] is a lower probability mod- elling the imprecise knowledge about PX,Y. We say that P is comonotone when any P ∈ M(P) is comonotone.

Comonotone lower probabilities

Assume that P : P(X × Y) → [0, 1] is a lower probability mod- elling the imprecise knowledge about PX,Y. We say that P is comonotone when any P ∈ M(P) is comonotone. Example: Consider X = {x1, x2} and Y = {y1, y2} (x1 < x2 and y1 < y2). If P({(x1, y2)}) = 0, any P ∈ M(P) is comonotone:

Characterizations

Comonotone lower probabilities supp(P) is an increasing set ∀(x, y), either P({(u, v) : u > x, v ≤ y}) = 0 or P({(u, v) : u ≤ x, v > y}) = 0. F(x, y) = min(F X(x), F Y(y)) F(x, y) = min(F X(x), F Y(y)). Any P ∈ M(P) is comonotone.

Building comonotone lower probabilities

Theorem

Let BelX and BelY be two belief function with nested focal el- ements. Then, it is always possible to build a joint coherent comonotone lower probability with these fixed marginals, and in fact, it is also a belief function with nested focal elements.

Theorem

Let BelX and BelY be two belief functions with focal sets A1, . . . , An and B1, . . . , Bn such that Ai = [ai, ai] and Bi = [bi, bi] are in- tervals for i = 1, . . . , n and mX(Ai) = mY(Bi). Then, there exists a joint coherent comonotone lower probability with these fixed marginals. Furthermore, it is a belief function.

Highlights

This work investigates the notion of comonotonicity for lower probabilities. Definition, characterizations and properties. Not all marginals allow to define a joint comonotone coher- ent lower probability. It does for particular cases of belief functions. Comonotonicity for bivariate p-boxes: too much restrictive. All our results can be extended to countermonotonicity.
