Some Results on a Generalized Archimedean Family of Copulas

Authors

Abstract:

Durante et al. (2007) introduced a class of bivariate copulas depending on two generators which generalizes some known families such as the Archimedean copulas. In this paper we provide some result on properties of this family when the generators are certain univariate survival functions.

On Generators in Archimedean Copulas

This study after reviewing  construction methods of generators in Archimedean copulas (AC),  proposes several useful lemmas related with generators of AC. Then a new trigonometric Archimedean family will be shown which is based on cotangent function. The generated new family is able to model the low dependence structures.

Some Results on Convexity and Concavity of Multivariate Copulas

This paper provides some results on different types of convexity and concavity in the class of multivariate copulas. We also study their properties and provide several examples to illustrate our results.

Convergence of Archimedean copulas

Convergence of a sequence of bivariate Archimedean copulas to another Archimedean copula or to the comonotone copula is shown to be equivalent with convergence of the corresponding sequence of Kendall distribution functions. No extra differentiability conditions on the generators are needed. r 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Parameter Estimation of Some Archimedean Copulas Based on Minimum Cramér-von-Mises Distance

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new estimation method for estimating the Archimedean copula dependence parameter in the non-parametric setting. The estimation of the dependence parameter has been selected as the value that minimizes the Cramér-von-Mises distance which measures the distance between Empirical Bernstein Kendall distribution function and true Kendall distribution functi...

Sampling from Archimedean Copulas

We develop sampling algorithms for multivariate Archimedean copulas. For exchangeable copulas, where there is only one generating function, we first analyse the distribution of the copula itself, deriving a number of integral representations and a generating function representation. One of the integral representations is related, by a form of convolution, to the distribution whose Laplace trans...

Efficiently sampling Archimedean copulas

Efficient sampling algorithms for both exchangeable and nested Archimedean copulas are presented. First, efficient sampling algorithms for the nested Archimedean families of Ali-Mikhail-Haq, Frank, and Joe are introduced. Second, a general strategy how to build a nested Archimedean copula from a given Archimedean generator is presented. Sampling this copula involves sampling an exponentiallytil...
