The problem of finding the best-possible lower bound on the distribution of a non-decreasing function of n dependent risks is solved when n=2 and a lower bound on the copula of the portfolio is provided. The problem gets much more complicated in arbitrary dimensions. When no information on the...

We give a new sufficient condition for a continuous distribution to be completely mixable, and we use this condition to show that the worst-possible value-at-risk for the sum of d inhomogeneous risks is equivalent to the worst-possible expected shortfall under the same marginal assumptions, in...

We introduce the Mixability Detection Procedure (MDP) to check whether a set of d distribution functions is jointly mixable at a given confidence level. The procedure is based on newly established results regarding the convergence rate of the minimal variance problem within the class of joint...

The probabilistic characterization of the relationship between two or more random variables calls for a notion of dependence. Dependence modeling leads to mathematical and statistical challenges; recent developments in extremal dependence concepts have drawn a lot of attention in probability and...

We investigate the set of centers of completely and jointly mixable distributions. In addition to several results, we show that, for each n ≥ 2, there exist n standard Cauchy random variables adding up to a constant C if and only if |C| ≤ n*log(n − 1)/π

Motivated by recent advances on elicitability of risk measures and practical considerations of risk optimization, we introduce the notions of Bayes pairs and Bayes risk measures. Bayes risk measures are the counterpart of elicitable risk measures, extensively studied in the recent literature....
