I show that sharp identified sets in a large class of econometric models can be characterized by solving linear systems of equations. These linear systems determine whether, for a given value of a parameter of interest, there exists an admissible joint distribution of unobservables that can...

We consider the problem of estimating the marginals in case there is knowledge on the copula. If the copula is smooth, it is known that it is possible to improve on the empirical distribution functions: optimal estimators still have rate of convergence n-1/2, but a smaller asymptotic variance....

An elliptical copula model is a distribution function whose copula is that of an elliptical distribution. The tail dependence function in such a bivariate model has a parametric representation with two parameters: a tail parameter and a correlation parameter. The correlation parameter can be...

Extreme-value copulas arise as the possible limits of copulas of component-wise maxima of independent, identically … distributed samples. The use of bivariate extreme-value copulas is greatly facilitated by their representation in terms of …

Measuring dependence in a multivariate time series is tantamount to modelling its dynamic structure in space and time. In the context of a multivariate normally distributed time series, the evolution of the covariance (or correlation) matrix over time describes this dynamic. A wide variety of...
