The thesis presents fundamental characteristics of survival analysis in the case of competing risks and their relationships. In the case without regression, basic nonparametric estimates and a logarithmic likelihood function for parameter estimates is given. The main focus is on Cox's proportional hazards model (PH), a model with accelerated time (AFT) and a flexible regression model (FG) are also mentioned. The identifiability of the associated survival function is solved using copulas. Basics of copula theory and the measurement of dependence by correlation coefficients (Pearson, Spearman and Kendal) are described in a separate chapter. A substantial part of the theory is practically used in a generated case without regression.
