Popis: We derive formulas for the dependence measures and for Archimedean n-copulas. These measures are n-dimensional analogues of the popular nonparametric dependence measures: Kendall's tau and Spearman's rho. For we obtain two formulas, both involving integrals of univariate functions. The formulas for involve integrals of n-variate functions. We also obtain formulas for the three measures for copulas whose additive generators have completely monotone inverses. These formulas feature integrals of 2-variate functions (we use the Laplace transform). We study the asymptotic properties of the sequences and , for a sequence of Archimedean copulas with a common additive generator. We also investigate the limit of this sequence, which is an infinite-dimensional copula on the Hilbert cube.
