Maximal asymmetry of bivariate copulas and consequences to measures of dependence
In this article, we focus on copulas underlying maximal non-exchangeable pairs (X,Y)\left(X,Y) of continuous random variables X,YX,Y either in the sense of the uniform metric d∞{d}_{\infty } or the conditioning-based metrics Dp{D}_{p}, and analyze their ...

A Limit Theorem for Copulas [PDF]
We characterize convergence of a sequence of d-dimensional random vectors by convergence of the one-dimensional margins and of the copula. The result is applied to the approximation of portfolios modelled by t-copulas with large degrees of freedom, and ...

Bayesian estimation of generalized partition of unity copulas
This paper proposes a Bayesian estimation algorithm to estimate Generalized Partition of Unity Copulas (GPUC), a class of nonparametric copulas recently introduced by [18].

Measures of concordance determined by D4‐invariant copulas
A continuous random vector (X, Y) uniquely determines a copula C : [0, 1] 2 → [0, 1] such that when the distribution functions of X and Y are properly composed into C, the joint distribution function of (X, Y) results. A copula is said to be D4‐invariant if its mass distribution is invariant with respect to the symmetries of the unit square.

Characterizations of multinomial distributions based on conditional distributions
Several characterizations of the joint multinomial distribution of two discrete random vectors are derived assuming conditional multinomial distributions.

A characterization of matrix variate normal distribution
The joint normality of two random vectors is obtained based on normal conditional with linear regression and constant covariance matrix of each vector given the value of the other without assuming the existence of the joint density. This result is applied to a characterization of matrix variate normal distribution.

The use of the exponential distribution and its multivariate generalizations is extremely popular in lifetime modeling. Freund’s bivariate exponential model (1961) is based on the idea that the remaining lifetime of any entity in a bivariate system is ...

In this paper we study some functionals operating on the set of the n‐copulas defined on [0, 1] n. Conditions under which such functionals are well defined are determined and some counterexamples are described. The study of the fixed points (n‐copulas) for these functionals is also considered, and, finally, some open problems are presented.

Maximum asymmetry of copulas revisited
Motivated by the nice characterization of copulas A for which d∞(A, At) is maximal as established independently by Nelsen [11] and Klement & Mesiar [7], we study maximum asymmetry with respect to the conditioning-based metric D1 going back to Trutschnig [

Multivariate radial symmetry of copula functions: finite sample comparison in the i.i.d case
Given a d-dimensional random vector X = (X1, . . ., Xd), if the standard uniform vector U obtained by the component-wise probability integral transform (PIT) of X has the same distribution of its point reflection through the center of the unit hypercube,
