Margins of d-copulas and the independence copula #
For a d-copula C and a coordinate map ρ : Fin e → Fin d, C.reindex ρ is the law of
(X_{ρ 0}, …, X_{ρ (e-1)}). When ρ is injective this is the e-dimensional margin of C
(Nelsen 2006, §2.10: the k-margins of a d-copula are k-copulas, obtained by setting the
remaining arguments equal to 1). This module proves
- the CDF of any reindexed copula,
C.reindex ρatv, isCat the pointmarginPoint ρ vwhosei-th coordinate is the minimum of thev jwithρ j = i(and1if there is none) (cdf_reindex); for injectiveρthis is "set the other arguments to1" (cdf_reindex_of_injective); - margins of

C = Π_diff the coordinates are mutually independent underC(eq_independence_iff_iIndepFun) iffC(u) = ∏ uᵢ(eq_independence_iff_cdf) (Nelsen 2006, §2.10, in copula form).
The point of [0,1]^d at which a d-copula is evaluated to obtain the CDF of C.reindex ρ
at v: coordinate i is the minimum of the v j with ρ j = i, and 1 if there is none.

Instances For
CDF of a reindexed copula: evaluate C at marginPoint ρ v.
Margins of a d-copula (Nelsen 2006, §2.10): for injective ρ, the CDF of the margin
C.reindex ρ is obtained by putting v j in coordinate ρ j and 1 elsewhere.
Bivariate margins: the (i, j) margin evaluated at (s, t).
Margins of the independence copula are independence copulas.
Margins and repetitions of the comonotonic copula are comonotonic.
Margins of the survival copula are the survival copulas of the margins.
Characterization of the independence copula #
C = Π_d iff the coordinates are mutually independent under C.
C = Π_d iff C(u) = ∏ uᵢ for all u.
