Abstract

top
Copulas are functions which join the margins to produce a joint distribution function. A special class of copulas called shuffles of Min is shown to be dense in the collection of all copulas. Each shuffle of Min is interpreted probabilistically. Using the above-mentioned results, it is proved that the joint distribution of any two continuously distributed random variables X and Y can be approximated uniformly, arbitrarily closely by the joint distribution of another pair X* and Y* each of which is almost surely an invertible function of the other such that X and X* are identically distributed as are Y and Y*. The preceding results shed light on A. Rényi's axioms for a measure of dependence and a modification of those axioms as given by B. Schweizer and E.F. Wolff.
