This paper brings some insights of $\psi'$-mixing, $\psi^*$-mixing and $\psi$-mixing for copula-based Markov chains and the perturbations of their copulas. We provide new tools to check Markov chains for $\psi$-mixing or $\psi'$-mixing, and…

This article continues our study of Markovian consistency and Markov copulae. In particular, we characterize the weak Markovian consistency for finite Markov chains. We discuss some aspects of dependence between the components of a…
Dependence coefficients have been widely studied for Markov processes defined by a set of transition probabilities and an initial distribution. This work clarifies some aspects of the theory of dependence structure of Markov chains…
We characterize absolutely continuous symmetric copulas with square integrable densities in this paper. This characterization is used to create new copula families, that are perturbations of the independence copula. The full study of mixing…
Copulas have been popular to model dependence for multivariate distributions, but have not been used much in modelling temporal dependence of univariate time series. This paper demonstrates some difficulties with using copulas even for…
We show that if the density of the absolutely continuous part of a copula is bounded away from zero on a set of Lebesgue measure 1, then that copula generates \textquotedblleft lower $\psi$-mixing\textquotedblright\ stationary Markov…
Building higher-dimensional copulas is generally recognized as a difficult problem. Regular-vines using bivariate copulas provide a flexible class of high-dimensional dependency models. In large dimensions, the drawback of the model is the…
Perturbation analysis of Markov chains provides bounds on the effect that a change in a Markov transition matrix has on the corresponding stationary distribution. This paper compares and analyzes bounds found in the literature for finite…
The basic question in perturbation analysis of Markov chains is: how do small changes in the transition kernels of Markov chains translate to chains in their stationary distributions? Many papers on the subject have shown, roughly, that the…
Simultaneous recordings from many neurons hide important information and the connections characterizing the network remain generally undiscovered despite the progresses of statistical and machine learning techniques. Discerning the presence…
This work provides a study of parameter estimators based on functions of Markov chains generated by some perturbations of the independence copula. We provide asymptotic distributions of maximum likelihood estimators and confidence intervals…
This chapter surveys progress on three related topics in perturbations of Markov chains: the motivating question of when and how "perturbed" MCMC chains are developed, the theoretical problem of how perturbation theory can be used to…
Parametric copula families have been known to flexibly capture various dependence patterns, e.g., either positive or negative dependence in either the lower or upper tails of bivariate distributions. In this paper, our objective is to…
Copulas are essential tools in statistics and probability theory, enabling the study of the dependence structure between random variables independently of their marginal distributions. Among the various types of copulas, Ratio-Type Copulas…
Most common parametric families of copulas are totally ordered, and in many cases they are also positively or negatively regression dependent and therefore they lead to monotone regression functions, which makes them not suitable for…
New copulas, based on perturbation theory, are introduced to clarify a \emph{symmetrization} procedure for asymmetric copulas. We give also some properties of the \emph{symmetrized} copula. Finally, we examine families of copulas with a…
This paper is concerned with modeling the dependence structure of two (or more) time-series in the presence of a (possible multivariate) covariate which may include past values of the time series. We assume that the covariate influences…
