Let (Ω,Σ,μ) be a measure space with at least two disjoint sets of finite and positive measure, and S+=S+(Ω,Σ,μ) denote the set of all μ-integrable simple functions x:Ω→R+ having support Ω(x) of positive measure. Then, for an arbitrary bijection φ:(0,∞)→(0,∞), the functional Pφ:S+→R+ given by Pφ(x):=φ−1(∫Ω(x)φ∘xdμ) is well defined. The results presented support the conjecture that subadditivity of Pφ implies the convexity of φ. The case of superadditivity of Pφ is also discussed.
