This article considers the problem of measuring radial asymmetry of a bivariate vector of continuous random variables whose components are symmetric about the center of symmetry. We introduce a set of axioms for measures of radial asymmetry, define new measures satisfying the axiomatic, study...

Using the technique of finding bounds on sets of copulas with particular properties, we compare the distribution of an n-dimensional (n≥3) vector of continuous pairwise independent random variables to the distribution of a similar vector of mutually independent random variables. We examine the...
