Title:
Lévy-frailty copulas
Abstract:
A parametric family of n-dimensional copulas is introduced. Members of this family arise naturally as survival copulas in frailty models. The presented probabilistic construction principle introduces dependence to initially independent exponential random variables by means of first-passage times of a Levy subordinator. Jumps of the Levy subordinator are reflected in a singular component of the copula. A result of Gnedin (2008) is applied to show that a tractable subclass is parametrized by compl...     »
