β¦ Synopsis
In most situations, the dependence monotonicities of copulas are checked by problem-speciΓΏc approaches. Sometimes, it is impossible to check the monotonicities from the analytic forms of copulas. The purpose of this paper is to lay out some general results that can be used to identify dependence parameter(s) with respect to the supermodular dependence ordering for a parametric family of copulas constructed through mixing and limits. Special attention is paid to multivariate extreme value copulas, and some examples of applications are provided.
