arXiv:2608.07122v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study Lambda-quantiles, a generalisation of classical quantiles in which the constant probability level $\lambda \in [0,1]$ is replaced by a functional parameter $\Lambda \colon \mathbb{R} \to [0,1]$. We consider the general case of non-monotone $\Lambda$, which arises naturally if closure properties of the class of corresponding Lambda-quantiles with respect to inf-aggregation or with respect to mixtures are required. As preliminary results, we characterise finiteness, constancy, and what we call the attainment property known from classical quantiles. We then consider the problem of reconstructing $\Lambda$ from the values of $\Lambda$-quantiles on a suitable family of simple distributions, showing its identifiability under mild assumptions. Next, we substantially refine several results obtained in the literature on weak upper and lower semicontinuity and on the property of convexity of the level sets with respect to mixtures, obtaining in both cases almost complete characterisations without any monotonicity assumption. We then move to the case in which $\Lambda$ has bounded variation, which enables us to prove a mixture representation result: any such $\Lambda$-quantile can be rewritten as a Lambda-quantile with an increasing functional parameter, evaluated at a mixture of the original distribution with a fixed reference distribution at a fixed weight, thus reducing the complexity of the parameter from bounded variation to monotone. Finally, we introduce and study the notion of the ordinal covariance group of a risk measure, showing that in the case of a $\Lambda$-quantile it coincides with the compositional invariance group of $\Lambda$ and with a certain group of measure-preserving transformations of the signed measure associated with $\Lambda$.
