Introductory reading on vine copulas

Question

I am looking for a gentle introduction into vine copulas and R-vines in particular.
(There is a related thread for copulas in general, but the answers there do not seem to contain an introduction into vine copulas.)

Answer 1

• Textbook: Czado "Analyzing Dependent Data with Vine Copulas: A Practical Guide With R" (2019). R-vines are presented in chapters 5-9.
• Slides: Kramer & Schepsmeier "Introduction to vine copulas" (2011)
• Slides: Haff "How To Select A Good Vine" (2016)
• Wikipedia: quite detailed.
