We introduce a new measure of interdependence among the components of a random vector along the main diagonal of the vector copula, i.e. along the line $u_{1}=\ldots=u_{J}$, for $\left(u_{1},\ldots,u_{J}\right)\in\left[0,1\right]^{J}$. Our…

Multivariate time series exhibit two types of dependence: across variables and across time points. Vine copulas are graphical models for the dependence and can conveniently capture both types of dependence in the same model. We derive the…

A {\em maximal inequality} seeks to estimate $\mathbb{E}\max_i X_i$ in terms of properties of the $X_i$. When the latter are independent, the union bound (in its various guises) can yield tight upper bounds. If, however, the $X_i$ are…
