1) There is no element of "increase" or "decrease" in the meaning of 遞.

LA
1. 傳送;送交給另一方。
例 「遞眼色」、「遞送」、「傳遞」、「投遞」。

2. 順次;一個接一個地。
例 「遞補」、「遞減」、「遞降」、「遞進」。


2) The "progressive"-sense bound form is usually (or always?) used as a prefix (which Chao would label as "B-", as opposed to -B, which indicates a suffix.)

- 遞補 递补 [di4 bu3] /to substitute/to complement in the proper order/to fill vacancies progressively/
- 遞歸 递归 [di4 gui1] /recursion/recursive (calculation)/recurrence/
- 遞加 递加 [di4 jia1] /progressively increasing/
- 遞減 递减 [di4 jian3] /progressively decreasing/gradually falling/in descending order/
- 遞降 递降 [di4 jiang4] /to go down by degrees/progressively decreasing/
- 遞進 递进 [di4 jin4] /gradual progress/to go forward one stage at a time/
- 遞嬗 递嬗 [di4 shan4] /to change progressively/
- 遞升 递升 [di4 sheng1] /to ascend progressively/
- 遞推 递推 [di4 tui1] /recursion/recursive (calculation)/recurrence/
- 遞增 递增 [di4 zeng1] /to increase by degrees/in increasing order/incremental/progressive/

Some of these definitions need work.
Diff:
- 遞 递 [di4] /to hand over/to pass on sth/to gradually increase or decrease/progressively/
+ 遞 递 [di4] /to hand over; to pass on; to deliver/(bound form) progressively; in the proper order/
