The corollary on Blest's coefficient and its transpose in exact-blest-regions.tex: both
displayed descriptions of the region (through Υ and through Λ), the two boundary curves,
unique maximizers and minimizers in every fibre, their identification with the extremal
families, the closed-form bound stated in the introduction, and continuity of Υ.
Elementary properties of Υ #
The boundary function Λ along the boundary of the (η,ν)-region #
Both coordinates of the boundary curves are strictly increasing in e.

The two descriptions of the region #
The first displayed description: |n - m| ≤ 2 Υ((n+m)/2).
The second displayed description: Λ⁻¹(n) ≤ m ≤ Λ(n).
The fibre above n is the interval [Λ⁻¹(n), Λ(n)].
The (η,ν)-region is the image of the (ν,νᵀ)-region under (n,m) ↦ ((n+m)/2, n).
Boundary curves #
Maximum and minimum of ν(Cᵀ) at fixed ν(C) #
Every upper extremizer of the (η,ν)-region is A_w, B_a, or W.
The maximizer is the transpose of an upper extremizer of the (η,ν)-region.
For n = -1, the only copula in the fibre is W.
For n ∈ [-7/8,1], the maximizer is A_wᵀ with w = 1 - ((1+n)/2)^(1/4).
For n ∈ (-1,-7/8), the maximizer is B_aᵀ with n_a = n.
For n ∈ (-1,1], the minimizer is an upper extremizer A_w or B_a itself.
For n ∈ (-1,1], the maximizer is the transpose of A_w or B_a.
The closed-form bound stated in the introduction #
Continuity of Υ #
Υ is continuous on [-1,1], in particular at the regime change -3/4.
