Mutual exclusivity is an extreme negative dependence structure that was first proposed and studied in Dhaene and Denuit (1999) in the context of insurance risks. In this article, we revisit this notion and present versatile characterizations of mutually exclusive random vectors via their...

In this paper, we extend the concept of mutual exclusivity proposed by Dhaene and Denuit (1999) to its tail counterpart and baptise this new dependency structure as tail mutual exclusivity. Probability levels are first specified for each component of the random vector. Under this dependency...
