A New Family of Archimedean Copulas: The Half-Logistic Family of Copulas
In this research, we introduce a truncation of the half-logistic distribution function as a multiplicative Archimedean generator. The corresponding Archimedean copula is obtained, namely the half-logistic family.

Tails of multivariate Archimedean copulas
A complete and user-friendly directory of tails of Archimedean copulas is presented which can be used in the selection and construction of appropriate models with desired properties. The results are synthesized in the form of a decision tree: Given the values of some readily computable characteristics of the Archimedean generator, the upper and lower ...

Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape
ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...

On Truncation Invariant Copulas and their Estimation
The paper deals with the family of irreducible left truncation invariant bivariate copulas, which admit a nontrivial lower tail dependence function. Such copulas, similarly as the Archimedean ones, are characterized by a functional parameter, a generator

Robust Bernoulli Mixture Models for Credit Portfolio Risk
ABSTRACT This paper presents comparison results and establishes risk bounds for credit portfolios within classes of Bernoulli mixture models, assuming conditionally independent defaults that are stochastically increasing in a common risk factor. We provide simple and interpretable conditions on conditional default probabilities that imply a comparison ...

Characterizations of Archimedean n-copulas [PDF]
Summary: We present three characterizations of \(n\)-dimensional Archimedean copulas: algebraic, differential and diagonal. The first is due to Jouini and Clemen. We formulate it in a more general form, in terms of an \(n\)-variable operation derived from a binary operation.

Risk Times in Mission‐Oriented Systems
ABSTRACT This article assesses risk times in mission‐oriented systems with high safety standards. We examine critical times under two safety policies. The first requires that the system's reliability function, known the first failure of the components, must exceed a reliability level throughout the mission.

Archimedean Copulas: A Useful Approach in Biomedical Data—A Review with an Application in Pediatrics
Many applications in health research involve the analysis of multivariate distributions of random variables. In this paper, we review the basic theory of copulas to illustrate their advantages in deriving a joint distribution from given marginal ...

Hierarchical Archimedean Copulae: The HAC Package [PDF]
This paper presents the R package HAC, which provides user friendly methods for dealing with hierarchical Archimedean copulae (HAC). Computationally efficient estimation procedures allow to recover the structure and the parameters of HAC from data. In addition, arbitrary HAC can be constructed to sample random vectors and to compute the values of the ...
