This study presents an idea of indecisive functions, their general and also special definitions, plausibility and pignistic indecisive belief functions. The rich structure of indecisive belief functions is studied in general, and also in special views: both general substructures and indecisive belief functions on three-element and general finite frames of discernment. We are focused to pignistic and contour (plausibility) indecisive belief functions, including their mutual relationship in our study. The later have interesting algebraic structure related to Dempster’s rule of combination.
