Definition A d dimensional Copula C : [0,1] d R is a function which is a cummulative distribution function with uniform marginals. As commulative density functions are always increasing; The marginal in component i is obtained by setting u j = 1 for all j i and has to be uniformly distributed; Clearly, for a i b i the probability P(U 1 [a 1 ;b 1 ],...,[a d ;b d ]) must be nonnegative, which leads to the so called rectangle inequality 2 i 1 =1 2 ( 1) i 1+ +i d C(u 1,i1,...,u d,id ) 0. i d =1 Hausenblas (Leoben) Nonlinear Filtering with Lévy noise April 10, / 46

21 Correlated noise Copulas and Lévy Copulas Copulas Definition A d dimensional Copula C : [0,1] d [0,1] is a function which is a cummulative distribution function with uniform marginals. Theorem (Sklars Theorem (1959)) Consider a d dimensional cumulative distribution function F with marginals F 1,...,F d. Then there exists a copula C, such that F(x 1,...,x d ) = C (F 1 (x 1 ),...,F d (x d )), x = (x 1,...,x d ) R d. If all F i are continuous, then C is uniquely defined, otherwise C is only uniquely determined on RanF 1 RanF d. Hausenblas (Leoben) Nonlinear Filtering with Lévy noise April 10, / 46

23 Correlated noise Copulas and Lévy Copulas Copulas - some examples the Clayton copula (1978) (θ ((0, )) ) C(u 1,u 2,...,u d ) = max [u1 θ +u2 θ + u θ d (d 1)] θ,0 1 ; Some properties: the parameter θ > 0 determines the dependence of the jump sizes. Larger values of θ indicate a stronger dependence, smaller values of θ indicate independence. That means, in the limit θ 0 the Clayton copula converges to the independence copula, and for θ the Clayton copula converges to the comonotonic copula. the Clayton copula turns out to have a lower tail dependence. This significate, roughly spoken, if X 1 and X 2 are defined by its marginal distribution and a Clayton copula, there is a strong tendency for X 2 to be small, if X 1 is small and vice versa.

Some properties: Again, the parameter θ > 1 determines the dependence of the jump sizes. In particular, if θ = 1 one obtains for the Gumbel copula the independence copula, and for θ converges the Gumbel copula to the comonotonic copula. The Gumbel copula turns out to have upper tail dependence. This significate, roughly spoken, if X 1 and X 2 are defined by its marginal distribution and a Gumbel copula, there is a strong tendency for X 2 to be extreme, if X 1 is extreme and vice versa.

27 Correlated noise Copulas and Lévy Copulas Lévy Copulas Let ν 1, ν 2 be two Lévy measures in R +1, and U 1, and U 2 the corresponding tail integrals given by U i(x) = ν i(x, ), i = 1,2. Definition A 2 dimensional Copula H : [0, ] 2 R is a function which is a cumulative distribution function with uniform marginals. Theorem (Sklars Theorem for Lévy copula) (see the book of Cont and Tankov (2004)) Consider a 2 dimensional Lévy measure ν with marginal intensity functions ν 1 and ν 2. Then there exists a copula H, such that U(x 1,x 2) = H (U 1(x 1),U 2(x 2)), x = (x 1,x 2) R 2. Here U(x 1,x 2) = ν([x 1, ) [x 2, )). If all U i are continuous, then H is uniquely defined, otherwise H is only uniquely determined on RanU 1 RanU 2. 1 One can extend the definition to Lévy measures in R, however, for simplicity, we consider here in the talk only Lévy measures on R +.

58 Pseudo Differential Operators Lévy s symbol and pseudo differential operators A result of Getoor remark The key step for the existence of π is a lemma of the existence of probability kernels by Getoor (1975). Let ( Ω, A) be a measurable space. Now, the lemma says, that if a operator T : B b ((R,B(R)) B b (( Ω,A)) is linear a.e. and positive a.e.; for any sequence of functions {f n : n IN} and f B b (R), 0 f n f implies Tf n f then there exists a bounded kernel µ(, ) from ( Ω,A) to (R,B(R)) such that Tf(ω) = R f(u)µ(ω,du), for all f B b(r) and ω Ω.
