Abstract

It is known that there is one equivalence class of regular vines for n = 3 and two equivalence classes for n = 4. Through an enumeration, we show that there are six equivalence classes for n = 5 with boundary classes of C-vines and D-vines, so that the dimension of n = 5 is manageable in terms of studying the intermediate regular vines. For vine copulae, which obtain from associating a bivariate copula with each pair in the vine, we develop an approach that leads to algorithms for C-vines, D-vines and intermediate vines. Some similarities between different vine copulae can be seen from how they are simulated. For Gaussian and non-Gaussian vines, we compare the marginal bivariate dependence of different vine copulae when the level ℓ bivariate linking copulae are all set at Cℓ, ℓ = 1,…, n − 1.
