They include the ruin time, the time of the surplus process leaving zero ultimately （simply, the ultimately leaving-time）, the surplus immediately prior to ruin, the supreme profits before ruin, the supreme profits and deficit until it leaves zero ultimately and so on. The explicit expressions for their distributions are obtained mainly by the various properties of Levy process, such as the homogeneous strong Markov property and the spatial homogeneity property etc, moveover, the many properties for Brownian motion.展开更多

This framework is based on the partial integro-differential Fokker-Planck (FP) equation that governs the time evolution of the probability density function of this process. In the stochastic process and, correspondingly, in the FP model the control function enters as a time-dependent coefficient. The objectives of the control are to minimize a discrete-in-time, resp. continuous-in-time, tracking functionals and its L2- and L1-costs, where the latter is considered to promote control sparsity. An efficient proximal scheme for solving these optimal control problems is considered. Results of numerical experiments are presented to validate the theoretical results and the computational effectiveness of the proposed control framework.展开更多

In this paper, we modify the classical Poisson risk model to describe the surplus process of an insurance portfolio. We consider a jump-diffusion risk process compounded by a geometric Brownian motion, and assume that the claim sizes and claim intervals are dependent. Using the properties of conditional expectation, we establish integro-differential equations for the Gerber-Shiu function and the ultimate ruin probability.展开更多

Here, 'local time' is understood in the sense of occupation density, and by an additive Levy process the authors mean a process X = {X(t),t∈ R+N} which has the decomposition X = Xi X2 … XN, each Xl has the lower index αl, α= min{α1,…, αN}. Let Z = (Xt2 - Xt1, …, Xtr - Xtr-1). They prove that if Nrα > d(r-1), then a jointly continuous local time of Z, i.e. the self-intersection local time of X, can be obtained.展开更多
