Rank weighting and asymmetry in Blest's rank correlation: two exact regions

Marcus Rockel

Blest's rank correlation is a variant of Spearman's rho that weights the leading ranks of one variable more heavily, at the price that is not symmetric in its arguments…

The exact region determined by Spearman's rho and Gini's gamma

Jonathan Ansari, Marcus Rockel, Stefanie Steinmaßl

We determine the exact attainable region of Spearman's rho and Gini's gamma over all bivariate copulas, resolving the remaining pairwise exact-region problem among Spearman's rho,…

The exact Spearman rho-footrule region via optimal transport with applications to finite rankings, mixability, and Chatterjee's rank correlation

Jonathan Ansari, Marcus Rockel

We solve the open problem of determining the maximal value of Spearman's rho when Spearman's footrule is prescribed, thereby completing the exact attainable region of these two qua…

The exact region determined by Kendall's tau, Spearman's footrule and Blomqvist's beta

Jacob Israel Orenday Lares, Marcus Rockel

We determine the exact region of possible joint values of Kendall's tau, Spearman's footrule and Blomqvist's beta over the class $…

The exact region between Chatterjee's and Blomqvist's

Jacob Israel Orenday Lares, Marcus Rockel

We determine the exact region of Chatterjee's rank correlation and Blomqvist's , that is, the set of all pairs where ranges over all bivariate copulas. The…

Kendall and Spearman bounds for Chatterjee's rank correlation under positive dependence

Marcus Rockel

We compare Chatterjee's rank correlation with Kendall's and Spearman's under positive-dependence assumptions on bivariate copulas. Our main technical contribution is a…

The exact region between Chatterjee's and Blest's rank correlations

Marcus Rockel

Exact regions between rank correlations describe the set of all pairs of values that two dependence measures can attain simultaneously on the same copula and thus yield sharp inequ…

On the exact region between Chatterjee's rank correlation and Spearman's footrule

Marcus Rockel

Chatterjee's rank correlation \(ξ\) has emerged as a popular measure quantifying the strength of directed functional dependence between random variables and . If and …

The exact region and an inequality between Chatterjee's and Spearman's rank correlations

Jonathan Ansari, Marcus Rockel

The rank correlation ξ(X,Y), recently established by Sourav Chatterjee and already popular in the statistics literature, takes values in [0,1], where 0 characterizes independence o…

Measures of association for approximating copulas

Marcus Rockel

This paper studies closed-form expressions for multiple association measures of copulas commonly used for approximation purposes, including Bernstein, shuffle--of--min, checkerboar…

Dependence properties of bivariate copula families

Jonathan Ansari, Marcus Rockel

Motivated by recently investigated results on dependence measures and robust risk models, this paper provides an overview of dependence properties of many well-known bivariate copu…
