- Abstract
- The criteria that characterize many interesting classes of lower previsions, such as coherent or k-monotone lower probabilities, can in finite spaces often be seen as a set of linear constraints on the set of lower previsions in the class, which therefore is a convex polyhedron. It can be equivalently characterized by its set of vertices. For all interesting classes that I studied, the set of vertices or necessary and sufficient constraints is finite. In the presentation I aim to make these representations a bit more concrete to people, so that their possible uses – both in applications and theory – can be discussed in a tangible way.
