The sharp population bounds for Hoeffding's D #
The pointwise Bernoulli covariance bound (C(u,v) - uv)² ≤ u(1-u) v(1-v) gives
0 ≤ D ≤ 1/30 for Hoeffding's D = ∫ (C - Π)² dC; the upper bound is attained at M and W
(hoeffdingD_comonotonic, hoeffdingD_countermonotonic), so 30 D ∈ [0,1].
The Bernoulli covariance bound for a copula discrepancy.
