This article proposes nonparametric tests for tail monotonicity of bivariate random vectors. The test statistic is based on a Kolmogorov–Smirnov-type functional of the empirical copula. Depending on the serial dependence features of the data, we propose two multiplier bootstrap techniques to...

Classical and more recent tests for detecting distributional changes in multivariate time series often lack power against alternatives that involve changes in the cross-sectional dependence structure. To be able to detect such changes better, a test is introduced based on a recently studied...

Empirical and sequential empirical copula processes play a central role for statistical inference on copulas. However, as pointed out by Johan Segers [J. Segers, Asymptotics of empirical copula processes under non-restrictive smoothness assumptions, Bernoulli 18 (3) (2012) 764–782] the usual...
