This paper considers a dependent risk model with diffusion for the surplus of an insurer, in which a current premium rate will be adjusted after a claim occurs and the adjusted rate is determined by the amount of the claim. At the same time, the diffusion is changed correspondingly. Using...

In this paper, the basic claim process is assumed to follow a Brownian motion with drift. In addition, the insurer is allowed to invest in a risk-free asset and n risky assets and to purchase proportional reinsurance. Under the constraint of no-shorting, we consider two optimization problems:...

In this paper we study the optimal excess-of-loss reinsurance and dividend strategy for maximizing the expected total discounted dividends received by shareholders until ruin time. Transaction costs and taxes are required when dividends occur. The problem is formulated as a stochastic impulse...

In this paper, we study optimal reinsurance/new business and investment (no-shorting) strategy for the mean-variance problem in two risk models: a classical risk model and a diffusion model. The problem is firstly reduced to a stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ) control problem with constraints....

In Bai and Paulsen [L. Bai, J. Paulsen, Optimal dividend policies with transaction costs for a class of diffusion processes, SIAM J. Control Optim. 48 (2010) 4987–5008] the optimal dividend problem under transaction costs was analyzed for a rather general class of diffusion processes. It was...

This article presents a mathematical model for jointly optimizing base stock levels for the multiple items subject to service level goals. The proposed model uses the expected demand and substitution probabilities between products as inputs and has been used to analyze the effects of demand...
