Book Renewal Risk Processes with Stochastic Returns on Investments

Download or read book Renewal Risk Processes with Stochastic Returns on Investments written by Corina D. Constantinescu and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis considers one of the classical problems in the actuarial mathematics literature, the decay of the probability of ruin in the collective risk model. The claim number process N(t) is assumed to be a renewal process, the resulting model being referred as the Sparre Andersen risk model. The inter-claim times form a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables. The additional non-classical feature is that the company invests in an asset with stochastic returns. A very general integro-differential equation is derived for expected values of functions of this renewal risk model with stochastic returns. Moreover, as a particular case, an integro-differential equation is derived for the probability of ruin, under very general conditions regarding the claim sizes, claim arrivals and the returns from investment. Through this unified approach, specific integro-differential equations of the ruin probability may be written for various risk model scenarios, allowing the asymptotic analysis of the ruin probabilities.

Book excerpt: Ruin Probabilities: Smoothness, Bounds, Supermartingale Approach deals with continuous-time risk models and covers several aspects of risk theory. The first of them is the smoothness of the survival probabilities. In particular, the book provides a detailed investigation of the continuity and differentiability of the infinite-horizon and finite-horizon survival probabilities for different risk models. Next, it gives some possible applications of the results concerning the smoothness of the survival probabilities. Additionally, the book introduces the supermartingale approach, which generalizes the martingale one introduced by Gerber, to get upper exponential bounds for the infinite-horizon ruin probabilities in some generalizations of the classical risk model with risky investments. Provides new original results Detailed investigation of the continuity and differentiability of the infinite-horizon and finite-horizon survival probabilities, as well as possible applications of these results An excellent supplement to current textbooks and monographs in risk theory Contains a comprehensive list of useful references

In this substantially updated and extended second version, new topics include stochastic control, fluctuation theory for Levy processes, Gerber-Shiu functions and dependence.

Book Lectures on Insurance Models

Download or read book Lectures on Insurance Models written by S. Ramasubramanian and published by Hindustan Book Agency. This book was released on 2009-04-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insurance has become a necessary aspect of modern society. The mathematical basis of insurance modeling is best expressed in terms of continuous time stochastic processes. This introductory text on actuarial risk theory deals with the Cramer-Lundberg model and the renewal risk model. Their basic structure and properties, including the renewal theorems as well as the corresponding ruin problems, are studied. There is a detailed discussion of heavy tailed distributions, which have become increasingly relevant. The Lundberg risk process with investment in risky asset is also considered. This book will be useful to practitioners in the field and to graduate students interested in this important branch of applied probability.

Book Quasi Stationary Phenomena in Nonlinearly Perturbed Stochastic Systems

Download or read book Quasi Stationary Phenomena in Nonlinearly Perturbed Stochastic Systems written by Mats Gyllenberg and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is devoted to studies of quasi-stationary phenomena in nonlinearly perturbed stochastic systems. New methods of asymptotic analysis for nonlinearly perturbed stochastic processes based on new types of asymptotic expansions for perturbed renewal equation and recurrence algorithms for construction of asymptotic expansions for Markov type processes with absorption are presented. Asymptotic expansions are given in mixed ergodic (for processes) and large deviation theorems (for absorption times) for nonlinearly perturbed regenerative processes, semi-Markov processes, and Markov chains. Applications to analysis of quasi-stationary phenomena in nonlinearly perturbed queueing systems, population dynamics and epidemic models, and for risk processes are presented. The book also contains an extended bibliography of works in the area. It is an essential reference for theoretical and applied researchers in the field of stochastic processes and their applications and may be also useful for doctoral and advanced undergraduate students.
