Abstract We present a Carlson type inequality for the Sugeno integral and a much wider class of functions than the comonotone functions. We also provide three Carlson type inequalities for the Choquet integral. Our inequalities generalize many known results. Keywords Choquet integral · Sugeno integral · Capacity · Semicopula · Carlson inequality
1 Introduction The pioneering concept of the fuzzy integral was introduced by Sugeno (1974) as a tool for modeling nondeterministic problems. Theoretical investigations of the integral and its generalizations have been pursued by many researchers. Wang and Klir (2009) presented an excellent general overview on fuzzy integration theory. On the other hand, fuzzy integrals have also been successfully applied to various fields (see, e.g., Hu 2007; Narukawa and Torra 2007). The study of inequalities for Sugeno integral was initiated by Román-Flores et al. (2007). Since then, the fuzzy integral counterparts of several classical inequalities, including Chebyshev’s, Jensen’s, Minkowski’s and Hölder’s inequalities, are given by Flores-Franuliˇet al. (2007), Agahi et al. (2012), Wu et al. (2010), Mesiar and Ouyang (2009) and others. Furthermore, many researchers started to study inequalities for the seminormed Sugeno integral (Agahi and Communicated by A. Di Nola.

The modified versions of the Carlson inequality can be found in Barza et al. (1998) and Mitrinovi´c et al. (1991), Chapter 8. Caballero and Sadarangani (2010) showed that the Carlson inequality (1) is not true for the Sugeno integral defined as f dμ = sup{α ∧ μ(A ∩ { f ≥ α})},

They also proved that if f : [0, 1] → [0, ∞) is a non-decreasing function and μ is the Lebesgue measure, then the following Carlson type inequality holds

A similar result was obtained by Wang and Bai (2011). They proved that if f, g, h are measurable functions from X to [0, ∞), both pairs f, h and f, g are comonotone set such

A counterpart of the Carlson inequality for the Choquet integral was provided in Tang and Ouyang (2012) (see Sect. 3 below). The purpose of this paper is to study the Carlson type inequalities of the form Iμ ( f ) ≤ H (Iμ (φ( f, g)), Iμ (ψ( f, h))),
(6)
where Iμ ( f ) stands for the Sugeno, the generalized Sugeno or the Choquet integrals with respect to μ and H, φ, ψ are real valued functions. In Sect. 2, we provide a generalization of inequalities (3)–(5) for the Sugeno as well as the generalized Sugeno integral. The results are obtained for a rich class of functions, including the comonotone functions as a special case. In Sect. 3, we present the corresponding results for the Choquet integral. First, we show that (6) does not hold if we do not impose some extra conditions either on functions f, g, h or monotone measure μ. Next, we obtain the Carlson type inequalities for comonotone functions and an arbitrary

monotone measure. Finally, we present inequalities for any non-negative measurable functions f, g, h and a subadditive or submodular monotone measure μ.
Let (X, F) be a measurable space and μ : F → Y be a monotone measure, i.e., μ(∅) = 0, μ(X ) > 0 and μ(A) ≤ μ(B) whenever A ⊂ B. Throughout the paper Y = [0, 1] or Y = [0, ∞]. We say that ◦ : Y × Y → Y is a non-decreasing operator if a ◦ c ≥ b ◦ d for a ≥ b and c ≥ d. Let f, g : X → Y be measurable functions and A, B ∈ F. The functions f | A and g| B are positively dependent with respect to μ and an operator : Y × Y → Y if for any a, b ∈ Y μ({ f | A ≥ a}∩{g| B ≥ b}) ≥ μ({ f | A ≥ a}) μ({g| B ≥ b}), (7) where h |C denotes the restriction of the function h : X → Y to a set C ⊂ X (Kaluszka et al. 2014a). Obviously, {h |C ≥ a} = {x ∈ C : h(x) ≥ a} = C ∩ {h ≥ a}. Taking a b = a ∧ b and a b = ab, we recover two important examples of positively dependent functions, namely comonotone functions and independent random variables. Recall that f and g are comonotone if ( f (x) − f (y))(g(x) − g(y)) ≥ 0 for all x, y ∈ X . More examples of positively dependent functions can be found in Kaluszka et al. (2014a). First, we present a Carlson type inequality for the Sugeno integral (2). Suppose : Y × Y → Y is non-decreasing and left-continuous operator, i.e., limn→∞ (xn yn ) = x y for all xn x and yn y, where an a means that limn→∞ an = a and an < an+1 for all n. Theorem 2.1 Assume that p, q ≥ 1, r, s > 0 and : Y × Y → Y is an arbitrary operator. Then, for any pairs of positively dependent functions f |A , g|B and f |A , h |B such that (S) A∩B f ψ dμ ≤ 1 for ψ = g, h, the following inequality ⎛⎛ ⎝⎝(S)

where μ is a monotone measure and ◦ : Y × Y → Y is a non-decreasing operator (see Kaluszka et al. 2014b). The functional in (14) is the universal integral in the sense of Definition 2.5 in Klement et al. (2010) if ◦ is the pseudomultiplication function (see Klement et al. 2010, Definition 2.3). An example of non-decreasing operator is a t-seminorm, also called a semicopula (Durante et al. 2005; Ouyang and Mesiar 2009). There are three important t-seminorms: ∧, and ◦L , where (a, b) = ab and ◦L (a, b) = (a + b − 1) ∨ 0 usually called the Łukasiewicz t-norm (Klement et al. 2000). From now on, a ∨ b = max(a, b).

If μ is the Lebesgue measure, then (3) holds since (S) [0,1] x dμ = 0.5 and if f and g are comonotone, then f |A and g|A are positively dependent with respect to the operator ∧ (see Example 2.1 in Kaluszka et al. 2014a). Setting r = s = 1 and = · in Theorem 2.1, we obtain the inequality (4) of Xu and Ouyang. Taking r = p/( p + q) and s = 1−r , we get (5) (see also Wang and Bai 2011). Combining the above results with other inequalities for comonotone functions, one can also derive (similarly as in Daraby and Arabi 2013) some related Carlson type inequalities for the Sugeno integral. Next, we define the generalized Sugeno integral of a measurable function f : X → Y on a set A ∈ F as
⎞ ψ dμ⎠ for ψ = g, h.

(13) To complete the proof, it is enough to apply (13) to (12). Theorem 2.1 extends all known (obtained by different methods) Carlson type inequalities for the Sugeno integral. To see this, we first put A = B, = ∧ and = · in Theorem 2.1. Putting further g = 1, h = x, p = q = 2, r = s = 1 and A = [0, 1] yields the inequality (3) of Caballero and

(see Sugeno 1974 for Y = [0, 1]). If ◦ = , then (14) is called the Shilkret integral (see Shilkret 1971 for Y = [0, ∞]; Ouyang and Mesiar 2009
for Y = [0, 1]). We denote the Shilkret integral as (N ) A f dμ. Moreover, we obtain the seminormed fuzzy integral if Y = [0, 1] and ◦ is a semicopula (Suárez García and Gil Álvarez 1986). Suppose , : Y × Y → Y are non-decreasing operators. Let ♦ : Y × Y → Y be a non-decreasing and left-continuous operator. Assume : Y × Y → Y is an arbitrary operator and f, g, h : X → Y, are measurable functions. Now, we are ready to derive a Carlson inequality for the generalized Sugeno integral. Theorem 2.2 Suppose p, q ≥ 1 and r, s > 0. Then, for arbitrary pairs of positively dependent functions f |A , g|B and f |A , h |B , the following inequality

the Choquet integral still increases due to many applications in mathematics and economics, see for instance (Cerdà et al. 2011; Denneberg 1994; Grabisch and Labreuche 2010; Heilpern 2003; Kaluszka and Krzeszowiec 2012). If μ is a measure, the Choquet integral coincides with the Lebesgue integral (Wang and Klir 2009). It was Tang and Ouyang (2012) who first presented the following Carlson type inequality for the Choquet integral

= 0 otherwise, where t is any fixed point of X. Since X ψ dμ = supx∈X ψ(x), from (21) we get 1 ≤ c(μ)(g(t)h(t))1/4 , a contradiction with inf x∈X (g(x)h(x)) = 0 and c(μ) < ∞. Therefore, some extra conditions should be imposed on f, g, h or μ. First, we present the Carlson inequality under the assumption of comonotonicity.

where p, q > 1 and f, h are comonotone functions. This result was also obtained by Ouyang (2015) as a consequence of Hölder’s inequality and Chebyshev’s inequality for the Choquet integral. The assumption of comonotonicity is essential for inequality (20) (see Girotto and Holzer 2011). Unfortunately, Eq. (20) is not a generalization of the classical Carlson inequality (1). Our aim is to give such an extension. We begin by showing that it does not exist a functional c : M → [0, ∞) such that for any monotone measure μ and any integrable function f the following Carlson type inequality ⎛

The inequality (22) is sharp. In fact, if μ(B) = 1 for B =

s( f ) ≤ s(g)− r +s s(h)− r +s (s( f g)) r +s (s( f h)) r +s .

Since s(φψ) = s(φ)s(ψ) for comonotone functions φ, ψ (see Murofushi and Sugeno 1991), the equality in (25) is attained. Putting g = 1 and r = s in Theorem 3.1, we obtain inequality (20) as A 1 dμ = μ(A). Now, we provide the Carlson inequality for the Choquet integral with respect to a submodular monotone measure μ and any integrable functions f, g, h from X to [0, ∞). Recall that μ is submodular if μ(A ∩ B) + μ(A ∪ B) ≤ μ(A) + μ(B)

ah f p dμ.
If μ is the Lebesgue measure, g(x) = 1, h(x) = x 2 , p = q = 2 and A = [0, ∞], we obtain the classical Carlson inequality (1). Finally, we present the Carlson type inequality for the Choquet integral with respect to a subadditive monotone measure μ.
