Tail independence of the Plackett family #

The diagonal δ(t) = C_θ(t,t) of a Plackett copula has derivative 0 at t = 0 (the discriminant equals 1 there), so λ_L = 0; radial symmetry then gives λ_U = 0 (Nelsen 2006, §5.4: the Plackett copulas are tail independent for every θ > 0).

The Plackett copulas have no lower tail dependence.

The Plackett copulas have no upper tail dependence.
