The present paper aims to revisit the homogeneous risk model investigated by De Vylder and Goovaerts (1999, 2000). First, a claim arrival process is defined on a fixed time interval by assuming that the arrival times satisfy an order statistic property. Then, the variability and the covariance...

This note extends some of the key results of Dong and Rudi (2004) to general demand distributions. This generalization is achieved in two steps. First, we build on the analysis of Dong and Rudi to demonstrate that an inventory problem with transshipment is equivalent to a newsvendor problem with...

We consider a dynamic reinsurance market, where the traded risk process is driven by a compound Poisson process and where claim amounts are unbounded. These markets are known to be incomplete, and there are typically infinitely many martingale measures. In this case, no-arbitrage pricing theory...

The purpose of this paper is to study new notions of stochastic comparisons and aging classes based on the Laplace transform order of residual lives. We give relationships to other stochastic orders and aging classes given previously. Finally we study some applications to shock models.
