Abstract

In this chapter, we introduce copula functions and their main properties. For a more detailed study, we refer the interested reader to Joe (Multivariate models and dependence concepts, 1997), Nelsen (Introduction to copulas, 2006), and Durante and Sempi (Principles of copula theory, 2015).
