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 ...

Generating VaR scenarios with product beta distributions [PDF]
We propose a Monte Carlo simulation method to generate stress tests by VaR scenarios under Solvency II for dependent risks on the basis of observed data.

Distortion risk measures for sums of dependent losses [PDF]
We discuss two distinct approaches, for distorting risk measures of sums of dependent random variables, which preserve the property of coherence. The first, based on distorted expectations, operates on the survival function of the sum.

A general correlation inequality and the Almost Sure Local Limit Theorem for random sequences in the domain of attraction of a stable law [PDF]
In the present paper we obtain a new correlation inequality and use it for the purpose of extending the theory of the Almost Sure Local Limit Theorem to the case of lattice random sequences in the domain of attraction of a stable law.

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 ...

Comparisons of Concordance in Additive Models [PDF]
In this note we compare bivariate additive models with respect to their Pearson correlation coecients, Kendall's concordance coecients, and Blomqvist medial correlation coefcients. The conditions that enable the comparisons involve variability stochastic

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.
