We consider in this paper a general two-sided jump-diffusion risk model that allows for risky investments as well as for correlation between the two Brownian motions driving insurance risk and investment return. We first introduce the model and then find the integro-differential equations...

In this paper we consider a modified version of the classical optimal dividend problem taking into account both expected dividends and the time value of ruin. We assume that the risk process is modeled by a general spectrally positive Lévy process before dividends are deducted. Using the...

It is well known that a random vector with given marginals is comonotonic if and only if it has the largest convex sum, and that a random vector with given marginals (under an additional condition) is mutually exclusive if and only if it has the minimal convex sum. This paper provides an...

In this paper, we study the optimal control problem for a company whose surplus process evolves as an upward jump diffusion with random return on investment. Three types of practical optimization problems faced by a company that can control its liquid reserves by paying dividends and injecting...

In this paper we introduce a new multivariate dependence measure based on comonotonicity by means of product moment which motivated by the recent papers of Koch and Schepper (ASTIN Bulletin 41 (2011) 191-213) and Dhaene et al. (Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 263 (2014) 78-87)....

In this note we study the optimal dividend problem for a company whose surplus process, in the absence of dividend payments, evolves as a generalized compound Poisson model in which the counting process is a generalized Poisson process. This model including the classical risk model and the...

Let Xt be a standard d-dimensional Brownian motion with drift c started at a fixed X0, and let T be the hitting time for a sphere or concentric spherical shell. By using an appropriate martingale, a Laplace-Gegenbauer transform of the joint distribution of T and XT is determined.

In this paper, we consider the dividend payments in a compound Poisson risk model with credit and debit interests under absolute ruin. We first obtain the integro-differential equations satisfied by the moment generating function and moments of the discounted aggregate dividend payments....

We consider a one-dimensional time-homogeneous regular diffusion between two constant elastic barriers as well as the special cases with pure absorbing and/or reflecting barriers. We derive the recurrence relations for moments of the first passage time. As examples, we consider several popular...
