Copulas are determined by their distribution functions #

Coordinate lower intervals generate the Borel sigma algebra of the unit interval. Their finite products form a generating pi-system on the cube. Consequently, two copulas with equal CDFs have equal underlying measures.

C = D

Two copulas are equal if their distribution functions agree at every point.

The CDF representation is injective.
