Tail order and intermediate tail dependence of multivariate copulas
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to study copula families that have different tail patterns and tail asymmetry than multivariate Gaussian and t copulas, we introduce the concepts of tail order and tail order functions. These provide an integrated way to study both tail dependence and intermediate tail dependence. Some fundamental properties of tail order and tail order functions are obtained. For the multivariate Archimedean copula, we relate the tail heaviness of a positive random variable to the tail behavior of the Archimedean copula constructed from the Laplace transform of the random variable, and extend the results of Charpentier and Segers [1] (A. Charpentier, J. Segers, Tails of multivariate Archimedean copulas, J. Multivariate Anal. 100 (7) (2009) 1521-1537.) for upper tails of Archimedean copulas. In addition, a new one-parameter Archimedean copula family based on the Laplace transform of the inverse Gamma distribution is proposed; it possesses patterns of upper and lower tails not seen in commonly used copula families. Finally, tail orders are studied for copulas constructed from mixtures of max-infinitely divisible copulas.

A Note on Upper Tail Behavior of Liouville Copulas
The family of Liouville copulas is defined as the survival copulas of multivariate Liouville distributions, and it covers the Archimedean copulas constructed by Williamson’s d-transform. Liouville copulas provide a very wide range of dependence ranging from positive to negative dependence in the upper tails, and they can be useful in modeling tail risks. In this article, we study the upper tail...
متن کاملGeneral Multivariate Dependence Using Associated Copulas
This paper studies the general multivariate dependence of a random vector using associated copulas. We extend definitions and results of positive dependence to the general dependence case. This includes associated tail dependence functions and associated tail dependence coefficients. We derive the relationships among associated copulas and study the associated copulas of the perfect dependence ...
متن کاملTail dependence functions and vine copulas
Tail dependence and conditional tail dependence functions describe, respectively, the tail probabilities and conditional tail probabilities of a copula at various relative scales. The properties as well as the interplay of these two functions are established based upon their homogeneous structures. The extremal dependence of a copula, as described by its extreme value copulas, is shown to be co...
متن کاملIntermediate Tail Dependence: A Review and Some New Results
The concept of intermediate tail dependence is useful if one wants to quantify the degree of positive dependence in the tails when there is no strong evidence of presence of the usual tail dependence. We first review existing studies on intermediate tail dependence, and then we report new results to supplement the review. Intermediate tail dependence for elliptical, extreme value and Archimedea...
