Counterexamples to a Central Limit Theorem and a Weak Law of Large Numbers for capacities

Abstract

Chareka (2009) presented two limit theorems in which the additivity requirement of a probability measure is weakened to a one-sided version of the inclusion–exclusion formula. Counterexamples are presented which show that both his Central Limit Theorem and his Weak Law of Large Numbers are false.
