On positive homogeneity and comonotonic additivity of the principle of equivalent utility under Cumulative Prospect Theory

Abstract

Investigating the principle of equivalent utility under Cumulative Prospect Theory, Kałuszka and Krzeszowiec (2012) established characterizations of several important properties of the premium. It turns out that the results concerning positive homogeneity and comonotonic additivity are in general not true. The aim of this paper is to present modified and essentially generalized versions of the mentioned above results.
