These constructions are used to determine pointwise upper and lower bounds for the class of all trivariate copulas with given bivariate marginals. Copyright 2008 Fabrizio Durante et al.

Introduction In recent literature several researchers have focused the attention on constructions and stochastic orders among probability distribution functions with given marginals. These problems are interesting especially for their relevance in finance and quantitative risk management like models of multivariate portfolios and bounding functions of dependent risks see . 1 . If a random vector X X1z. Xn is characterized by a distribution function . F with known univariate marginals then upper and lower bounds for F were given in early works by Frechet. When instead we have some information about the multivariate marginals of F then the problem has not been considered extensively in the literature although it seems natural that for some applications one needs to estimate the joint distribution F of X when the dependence .
