On the singular components of a copula
نویسندگان
چکیده
We analyze copulas with a non-trivial singular component by using their Markov kernel representation. In particular, we provide existence results for copulas with a prescribed singular component. The constructions do not only help to deal with problems related to multivariate stochastic systems of lifetimes when joint defaults can occur with a non-zero probability, but even provide a copula maximizing the probability of joint default.

Analysis of Dependency Structure of Default Processes Based on Bayesian Copula
One of the main problems in credit risk management is the correlated default. In large portfolios, computing the default dependencies among issuers is an essential part in quantifying the portfolio's credit. The most important problems related to credit risk management are understanding the complex dependence structure of the associated variables and lacking the data. This paper aims at introdu...
متن کاملA note on the notion of singular copula
We clarify the link between the notion of singular copula and the concept of support of the measure induced by a copula.
متن کاملMultivariate Archimedean Copulas, d-monotone Functions and l1-norm Symmetric Distributions
It is shown that a necessary and sufficient condition for an Archimedean copula generator to generate a d-dimensional copula is that the generator is a d-monotone function. The class of d-dimensional Archimedean copulas is shown to coincide with the class of survival copulas of d-dimensional l1-norm symmetric distributions that place no point mass at the origin. The d-monotone Archimedean copul...
متن کاملTHE MEAN RESIDUAL LIFETIME OF PARALLEL SYSTEMS WITH TWO EXCHANGEABLE COMPONENTS UNDER THE GENERALIZED FARLIE-GUMBEL-MORGENSTERN MODEL
The parallel systems are special important types of coherent structures and have many applications in various areas.In this paper we consider a two-exchangeable-component parallel system for the Generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (Generalized FGM) distribution. We study the reliability properties of the residual lifetime of the system under the condition that both components of the system ar...
متن کاملSpatial Interpolation Using Copula for non-Gaussian Modeling of Rainfall Data
‎One of the most useful tools for handling multivariate distributions of dependent variables in terms of their marginal distribution is a copula function‎. ‎The copula families capture a fair amount of attention due to their applicability and flexibility in describing the non-Gaussian spatial dependent data‎. ‎The particular properties of the spatial copula are rarely ...
