For continuoues variables, how is a coupling of two distributions different from their joint distribution? Are they the same concepts?



Update: Coupling is the same as defining a joint distribution on the Cartesian product space of the supports of original random variables, in a way that marginals of the defined joint distribution are equal to the original random variables. What am I missing?

    Coupling of distributions has no relation to joint distributions. Coupling refers to taking random variables defined on different prob. spaces on putting equivalent variables (same distribution) on a single prob. space. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_(probability)

    Even your explanation still seems like defining a joint distribution on the product space of the supports of original random variables, in a way that marginals of the defined joint distribution are equal to the original random variables. What am I missing?

    My understanding is that coupling means defining random variables on the same probability space with the same distribution as those on separate spaces. This is my reading of the wikipedia reference. I personally am not familiar with the term "coupling distributions"..
