abstract
We explore how the classical concordance measures - Kendall's $\tau$, Spearman's rank correlation $\rho$, and Spearman's footrule $\phi$ - relate to Chatterjee's rank correlation $\xi$ when restricted to lower semilinear copulas. First, we provide a complete characterization of the attainable $\tau$-$\rho$ region for this class, thus resolving the conjecture in [18]. Building on this result, we then derive the exact $\tau$-$\phi$ and $\phi$-$\rho$ regions, obtain a closed-form relationship between $\xi$ and $\tau$, and establish the exact $\tau$-$\xi$ region. In particular, we prove that $\xi$ never exceeds $\tau$, $\rho$, or $\phi$. Our results clarify the relationship between undirected and directed dependence measures and reveal novel insights into the dependence structures that result from lower semilinear copulas.

On the exact region between Chatterjee's rank correlation and Spearman's footrule
For any copula, Spearman's footrule cannot exceed the square root of Chatterjee's ξ, and for stochastically increasing copulas the exact attainable region is ξ ≤ ψ ≤ √ξ.
