The next result, [100, Theorem 3.6], shows that essentially any Lévy process X
=
(X 1 ,...,X d )
can be built from univariate marginal processes X j , j
1 ,...,d
and Lévy copulas. It can be viewed as a version of Sklar's theorem for Lévy copulas.

Theorem 14.2.6 (Sklar's theorem for Lévy copulas) For any Lévy process X with
state space
d , there exists a Lévy copula F such that the tail integrals of X satisfy
U I (x I )

F I ((U i (x i )) i I

(14.2)
and any x I ∈ R | I | \{

. The Lévy copula F is
unique on i = 1 Ran U i .
Conversely , let F be a d-dimensional Lévy copula and U i , i
1 ,...,d , tail inte-
grals of univariate Lévy processes . Then , there exits a d-dimensional Lévy process X
such that its components have tail integrals U i and its marginal tail integrals satisfy
( 14.2 ). The Lévy measure ν of X is uniquely determined by F and U i , i
=
=
1 ,...,d .
Using partial integration, we can write the multidimensional Lévy measure in
terms of the Lévy copula.
Lemma 14.2.7 Let f(z) C ( R

of the origin . Furthermore , let X be a d-dimensional Lévy process with Lévy mea-
sure ν , Lévy copula F and marginal Lévy measures ν j , j
