Subadditive and superadditive set functions

Dependencies:

  1. Set function

A set function $f: 2^Ω → ℝ$ is subadditive iff $f(A ∪ B) ≤ f(A) + f(B)$ for all disjoint sets $A$ and $B$. $f$ is superadditive iff $f(A ∪ B) ≥ f(A) + f(B)$ for all disjoint sets $A$ and $B$.

Dependency for:

  1. A supermodular function is also a superadditive function
  2. A set function is additive iff it is submodular and supermodular iff it is subadditive and superadditive.
  3. A submodular function is also a subadditive function
  4. EEF implies PROP for subadditive valuations
  5. PROP implies EF for superadditive identical valuations
