Abstract
Abstract Motivated by the nice characterization of copulas A for which d∞(A, At) is maximal as established independently by Nelsen [11] and Klement & Mesiar [7], we study maximum asymmetry with respect to the conditioning-based metric D1 going back to Trutschnig [12]. Despite the fact that D1(A, At) is generally not straightforward to calculate, it is possible to provide both, a characterization and a handy representation of all copulas A maximizing D1(A, At). This representation is then used to prove the existence of copulas with full support maximizing D1(A, At). A comparison of D1- and d∞-asymmetry including some surprising examples rounds off the paper.
期刊介绍:
The journal Dependence Modeling aims at providing a medium for exchanging results and ideas in the area of multivariate dependence modeling. It is an open access fully peer-reviewed journal providing the readers with free, instant, and permanent access to all content worldwide. Dependence Modeling is listed by Web of Science (Emerging Sources Citation Index), Scopus, MathSciNet and Zentralblatt Math. The journal presents different types of articles: -"Research Articles" on fundamental theoretical aspects, as well as on significant applications in science, engineering, economics, finance, insurance and other fields. -"Review Articles" which present the existing literature on the specific topic from new perspectives. -"Interview articles" limited to two papers per year, covering interviews with milestone personalities in the field of Dependence Modeling. The journal topics include (but are not limited to): -Copula methods -Multivariate distributions -Estimation and goodness-of-fit tests -Measures of association -Quantitative risk management -Risk measures and stochastic orders -Time series -Environmental sciences -Computational methods and software -Extreme-value theory -Limit laws -Mass Transportations
