It is shown that the maximum surplus distribution before ruin satisfies the integro-differential equation with certain boundary conditions. Explicit expressions are obtained when claims amounts are rationally distributed. Finally, the surplus distribution at the time of ruin and the surplus distribution immediately before ruin are presented.展开更多

We mainly study the distribution of maximum surplus prior to ruin. A matrix form of integro-differential equation for this quantity is derived, and its solution can be expressed as a linear combination of particular solutions of the corresponding homogeneous integro-differential equations. By using the divided differences technique and nonnegative real part roots of Lundberg＇s equation, the explicit Laplace transforms of particular solutions are obtained. Specially, we can deduce closed-form results as long as the individual claim size is rationally distributed. We also give a concise matrix expression for the expected discounted dividend payments under a barrier dividend strategy. Finally, we give some examples to present our main results.展开更多

We construct an exponential martingale by virtue of the extended generator of the PDMP to change the measure. Some results are derived for the ruin probabilities, such as the general expressions for ruin probability, Lundberg bounds, CramerLundberg approximations, and finite-horizon ruin probability.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we consider the distribution of the maximum surplus before ruin in a generalized Erlang（n） risk process （i.e., convolution of n exponential distributions with possibly different parameters） perturbed by diffusion. It is shown that the maximum surplus distribution before ruin satisfies the integro-differential equation with certain boundary conditions. Explicit expressions are obtained when claims amounts are rationally distributed. Finally, the surplus distribution at the time of ruin and the surplus distribution immediately before ruin are presented.
