Let x and y be two random variables with continuous cumulative distribution functions f and g. A statistic U depending on the relative ranks of the x's and y's is proposed for testing the hypothesis f ...

We show that the copula of a pair of random variables X, Y is invariant under a.s. strictly increasing transformations of X and Y, and that any property of the joint distribution function of X and Y ...
