Clayton family: full bivariate CDF branches and limiting cases #
Tables 1–2: the Clayton CDF for positive parameters at positive coordinates.
Tables 1–2: the negative Clayton branch, with truncation before the power.
Table 1: the positive Clayton CDF vanishes on the coordinate axes.
Table 1: the negative Clayton CDF also vanishes on the coordinate axes.
Table 2: the θ = −1 copula is the lower Fréchet bound.
Table 3: every positive Clayton copula is conditionally increasing in both directions.
Table 3: no positive Clayton parameter is conditionally decreasing.
Table 3: the quadrant-dependence consequence of the positive Clayton CI entry.
Table 3: the zero-parameter limit is independence, hence both CI and CD.
Table 3: the negative endpoint is the countermonotonic copula, hence CD.
Table 3: every admissible negative Clayton copula is conditionally decreasing in both directions.
Table 3: no admissible negative Clayton parameter is conditionally increasing.
Table 3: negative Clayton parameters are negatively quadrant dependent.
Additional CDF-level result: every positive Clayton CDF is TP2. This is not density TP2.
At the zero parameter, independence has a TP2 CDF.
Additional CDF-level result: every admissible negative Clayton CDF fails TP2.
Table 3: at θ = −1, Clayton is W and has no Lebesgue MTP2 density.
Table 3: positive Clayton has exact lower-tail coefficient 2 ^ (-1 / θ).
Table 3: positive Clayton has zero upper-tail coefficient.
Table 3: negative Clayton has zero lower-tail coefficient.
Table 3: negative Clayton has zero upper-tail coefficient.
Table 2: positive Clayton parameters tending to zero give independence.
Table 2: positive Clayton parameters tending to infinity give the upper bound.
