LetF1,…,FNbe1-dimensional probability distribution functions andCbe anN-copula. Define anN-dimensional probability distribution functionGbyG(x1,…,xN)=C(F1(x1),…,FN(xN)). Letν, be the probability measure induced onℝNbyGandμbe the probability measure induced on[0,1]NbyC. We construct a certain transformationΦof subsets ofℝNto subsets of[0,1]Nwhich we call the Fréchet transform and prove that it is measure-preserving. It is intended that this transform be used as a tool to study the types of dependence which can exist between pairs orN-tuples of random variables, but no applications are presented in this paper.
