The correspondences between the scale function and the spectral measure or the stable tail dependence function are given. Combining scale functions by simple operations, semi-parametric classes of laws are described and analyzed, and resulting nested and structured models are discussed. Finally, the denseness of each of these classes is shown. Joint work with Anne-Laure Fougeres and Cecile Mercadier at the University of Lyon.
