Characterization of some functions stable for positive linear transformations

[en] This paper deals with a characterization of a class of aggregation operators. This class concerns operators which are symmetric, increasing, stable for the same positive linear transformations and present a property close to the bisymmetry property: the ordered bisymmetry property. It is proved that the class investigated contains exactly the ordered weighted averaging operators (OWA) introduced by Yager in 1988.
