Basic bounds of Fréchet classes

Jaroslav Skřivánek (2014)

Kybernetika

Algebraic bounds of Fréchet classes of copulas can be derived from the fundamental attributes of the associated copulas. A minimal system of algebraic bounds and related basic bounds can be defined using properties of pointed convex polyhedral cones and their relationship with non-negative solutions of systems of linear homogeneous Diophantine equations, largely studied in Combinatorics. The basic bounds are an algebraic improving of the Fréchet-Hoeffding bounds. We provide conditions of compatibility...

Bivariate copulas, norms and non-exchangeability

Pier Luigi Papini (2015)

Dependence Modeling

The present paper is related to the study of asymmetry for copulas by introducing functionals based on different norms for continuous variables. In particular, we discuss some facts concerning asymmetry and we point out some flaws occurring in the recent literature dealing with this matter.

Bivariate copulas: Transformations, asymmetry and measures of concordance

Sebastian Fuchs, Klaus D. Schmidt (2014)

Kybernetika

The present paper introduces a group of transformations on the collection of all bivariate copulas. This group contains an involution which is particularly useful since it provides (1) a criterion under which a given symmetric copula can be transformed into an asymmetric one and (2) a condition under which for a given copula the value of every measure of concordance is equal to zero. The group also contains a subgroup which is of particular interest since its four elements preserve symmetry, the...

Bounds of general Fréchet classes

Jaroslav Skřivánek (2012)

Kybernetika

This paper deals with conditions of compatibility of a system of copulas and with bounds of general Fréchet classes. Algebraic search for the bounds is interpreted as a solution to a linear system of Diophantine equations. Classical analytical specification of the bounds is described.
