Parametric robustness of a statistic in a class of distributions implies that the distribution of the statistic is the same for any member of the class of distributions. The bivariate Wishart distribution, based on the class of bivariate elliptical distributions, involves three essential statistics, namely, two sample variances and the product moment correlation coefficient. The distribution of the product moment correlation coefficient is known to be robust in the class of bivariate elliptical distributions. In this paper, we prove that the distribution of the variance ratio is also robust in the class of bivariate elliptical distributions.

Robustness of Correlation Coefficient and Variance Ratio under Elliptical Symmetry

Dependence Properties of Meta-Elliptical Distributions

Statistical Modeling and Analysis for Complex Data Problems, 2005

A distribution is said to be meta-elliptical if its associated copula is elliptical. Various properties of these copulas are critically reviewed in terms of association measures, concepts, and stochastic orderings, including tail dependence. Most results pertain to the bivariate case.

Extreme behavior of bivariate elliptical distributions

Insurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2007

This paper exploits a stochastic representation of bivariate elliptical distributions in order to obtain asymptotic results which are determined by the tail behavior of the generator. Under certain specified assumptions, we present the limiting distribution of componentwise maxima, the limiting upper copula, and a bivariate version of the classical peaks over threshold result.
