Quadrant dependence of families of Nelsen's Table 4.1 via generators #
Applications of the generator criteria of Copula.Archimedean.Concordance (Nelsen,
An Introduction to Copulas, second edition, Theorem 4.4.2 with Π as one of the copulas):
a strict Archimedean copula is PQD iff ψ(x) ψ(y) ≤ ψ(x + y), and an Archimedean copula is NQD
iff φ(uv) ≤ φ(u) + φ(v) on (0, 1].
- family 4.2.9 (
0 < θ ≤ 1) is NQD (isNQD_nelsen9):1 + θ(A + B) ≤ (1 + θA)(1 + θB); - family 4.2.10 (
0 < θ ≤ 1) is NQD (isNQD_nelsen10):2ab − 1 ≤ (2a − 1)(2b − 1)fora, b ≥ 1; - family 4.2.13 is PQD for
θ ≥ 1(isPQD_nelsen13) and NQD for0 < θ ≤ 1(isNQD_nelsen13), by concavity resp. convexity oft ↦ t^pon[1, ∞)(one_add_add_rpow_add_one_le,one_add_rpow_add_one_le_of_one_le); - families 4.2.19 and 4.2.20 (
θ > 0) are PQD (isPQD_nelsen19,isPQD_nelsen20), fromlog(e^a + e^b − 1) ≤ a + bfora, b ≥ 0.
