The aim of this paper is to examine multiple Markov dependence for the discrete as well as for the continuous parameter case. In both cases the Markov property with arbitrary parameter values is investigated and it is shown that it leads to the degeneration of the multiple Markov dependence to...

In applications it often occurs that the experimenter is faced with functions of random processes. Suppose, for instance, that he only can draw partial or incomplete information about the underlying process or that he has to classify events for the sake of efficiency. We assume that the...

Three types of unimodality (central convex, block, and star) are considered and the corresponding sets of unimodal copulas determined. Examples of star unimodal copulas, absolutely continuous, with a nonnull singular part, and even singular, are given. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a...
