(2) A formula expressing the measure of concordance of the random vectors $(\\pm X_1,...,\\pm X_n)$ in terms of the measures of concordance of the \"marginal\" random vectors $(X_{i_1},...,X_{i_k})$. (3) A method of expressing the measure of concordance of an odd-dimensional copula in terms of the measures of concordance of its even-dimensional marginals. (4) A family of relations which exist between the measures of concordance of the marginals of a given copula.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-08-22T16:01:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60E05" ], "keywords": [ "concordance", "multivariate measures", "properties", "random vectors", "extend scarsinis axioms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0808.3105T" } } }
