Asymptotic results are obtained for several conditional measures of association. The chosen random variables are the first two order statistics and the total sum within a random sum. Many of the results have confirmed the “one-jump” property of the risk model. Non-trivial limits are...

Consider a renewal risk model in which claim sizes and inter-arrival times correspondingly form a sequence of independent and identically distributed random pairs, with each pair obeying a dependence structure described via the conditional distribution of the inter-arrival time given the...

Consider the randomly weighted sums , n=1,2,..., where {Xk,k=1,2,...} is a sequence of independent real-valued random variables with common distribution F, whose right tail is regularly varying with exponent -[alpha]0, and {[theta]k,k=1,2,...} is a sequence of positive random variables,...

The switching of health insurance plans and health care utilization are potentially correlated with both observable and unobservable information. This paper presents a two-period model of health care utilization, and attempts to account for unobserved heterogeneity that simultaneously affects...
