โœฆ Synopsis

Two criteria are much used to evaluate phylogenetic trees constructed from distance data: goodness-of-fit and tree length. The exhaustive study of trees connecting four taxa shows that in some instances there is a discrepancy between these two criteria. The largest tree may be the one that best fits the distances at the cost of a negative interior branch length, whereas the shortest tree always has the largest interior branch length and is the most supported by nucleotid configurations.

Copulas are often used in finance to characterize the dependence between assets. However, a choice of the functional form for the copula is an open question in the literature. This paper develops a goodness-of-fit test for copulas based on positive definite bilinear forms. The suggested test avoids
