    In a series of several papers, the author has investigated several special classes of fuzzy measures putting the stress on functions and aggregation functions preserving the chosen distinguished class of fuzzy measures. In this paper, lower probabilities, generalized coherent lower probabilities and coherent lower probabilities on a fixed finite space \(X\) are discussed, as well as the corresponding measures on related score vectors from \([0,1]^X\) (recall that the counterpart of a probability measure \(P\) on \(X\) given by \(P(E)= \sum_{x\in E} p_x\) is the weighted arithmetic mean \(W\) given by \(W(f)= \sum_{x\in X} p_x f(x)\); evidently, \(P(E)= W(l_E)\)).
