Quasi-concave copulas, asymmetry and transformations

Elisabetta Alvoni, Pier Luigi Papini (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper we consider a class of copulas, called quasi-concave; we compare them with other classes of copulas and we study conditions implying symmetry for them. Recently, a measure of asymmetry for copulas has been introduced and the maximum degree of asymmetry for them in this sense has been computed: see Nelsen R.B., , Statist. Papers (2007), 329–336; Klement E.P., Mesiar R., ?, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolin. (2006), 141–148. Here we compute the maximum degree of asymmetry that...

Similarity:

We introduce and characterize the class of multivariate quasi-copulas with quadratic sections in one variable. We also present and analyze examples to illustrate our results.

On quasi-homogeneous copulas

Gaspar Mayor, Radko Mesiar, Joan Torrens (2008)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Quasi-homogeneity of copulas is introduced and studied. Quasi-homogeneous copulas are characterized by the convexity and strict monotonicity of their diagonal sections. As a by-product, a new construction method for copulas when only their diagonal section is known is given.
