Abstract

Given a real valued functional T on the space of bounded random variables, we investigate the problem of the existence of a conditional version of nonlinear means. We follow a seminal idea by Chisini (1929), defining a mean as the solution of a functional equation induced by T. We provide sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of a (unique) solution of a system of infinitely many functional equations, which will provide the so called Conditional Chisini mean. We apply our findings in characterizing the scalarization of conditional Risk Measures, an essential tool originally adopted by Detlefsen and Scandolo (2005) to deduce the robust dual representation.
