New results on perturbation-based copulas
A prominent example of a perturbation of the bivariate product copula (which characterizes stochastic independence) is the parametric family of Eyraud-Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copulas which allows small dependencies to be modeled.

Detecting and modeling critical dependence structures between random inputs of computer models
Uncertain information on input parameters of computer models is usually modeled by considering these parameters as random, and described by marginal distributions and a dependence structure of these variables.

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 ...

On the economic risk capital of portfolio insurance
A formula for the conditional value‐at‐risk of classical portfolio insurance is derived and shown to be constant for sufficiently small loss probabilities. As illustrations, we discuss portfolio insurance for an equity market index using empirical data, and analyze the more general multivariate situation of a portfolio of risky assets.

On the lower bound of Spearman’s footrule
Úbeda-Flores showed that the range of multivariate Spearman’s footrule for copulas of dimension d ≥ 2 is contained in the interval [−1/d, 1], that the upper bound is attained exclusively by the upper Fréchet-Hoeffding bound, and that the lower bound is ...

Multivariate Fréchet copulas and conditional value‐at‐risk
Based on the method of copulas, we construct a parametric family of multivariate distributions using mixtures of independent conditional distributions. The new family of multivariate copulas is a convex combination of products of independent and comonotone subcopulas.

Dependent defaults and losses with factor copula models
We present a class of flexible and tractable static factor models for the term structure of joint default probabilities, the factor copula models. These high-dimensional models remain parsimonious with paircopula constructions, and nest many standard ...

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.

Large portfolio risk management and optimal portfolio allocation with dynamic elliptical copulas
Previous research has focused on the importance of modeling the multivariate distribution for optimal portfolio allocation and active risk management. However, existing dynamic models are not easily applied to high-dimensional problems due to the curse ...

Probabilistic derivation of a bilinear summation formula for the Meixner‐Pollaczek polynominals
Using the technique of canonical expansion in probability theory, a bilinear summation formula is derived for the special case of the Meixner‐Pollaczek polynomials which are defined by the generating function These polynomials satisfy the orthogonality condition with respect to the weight function
