The class of componentwise concave copulas is considered, with particular emphasis on its closure under some constructions of copulas (e.g., ordinal sum) and its relations with other classes of copulas characterized by some notions of concavity and/or convexity. Then, a sharp upper bound is given for the L∞-measure of non-exchangeability for copulas belonging to this class.
This note attempts to understand graph limits as defined by Lovasz and Szegedy in terms of harmonic analysis on semigroups. This is done by representing probability distributions of random exchangeable graphs as mixtures of characters on the semigroup of unlabeled graphs with node-disjoint union, thereby providing an alternative derivation of de Finetti's theorem for random exchangeable graphs.
