Some properties of multivariate measures of concordance
Abstract
We explore the consequences of a set of axioms which extend Scarsini's axioms for bivariate measures of concordance to the multivariate case and exhibit the following results: (1) A method of extending measures of concordance from the bivariate case to arbitrarily high dimensions. (2) A formula expressing the measure of concordance of the random vectors ( X1,..., Xn) in terms of the measures of concordance of the "marginal" random vectors (Xi1,...,Xik). (3) A method of expressing the measure of concordance of an odd-dimensional copula in terms of the measures of concordance of its even-dimensional marginals. (4) A family of relations which exist between the measures of concordance of the marginals of a given copula.
