In this paper we study some algebraic properties of
Archimedean copulas and simple smoothed estimator of distribution function
under random right censored observations in the presence of covariate. Where
the dependence between a life time and a censoring variable may expressed by a
given Archimedean copula. We prove an almost sure asymptotic representation
which provides a key tool for obtaining weak convergence result for estimator.
