Smoothness of the survival probability in models with a random environment: the annuity and mixed cases

We consider the ruin problem for an insurance company investing its whole reserve in a risky asset whose parameters depend on a Markov random environment. Using the Green's function method we prove $C^2$-smoothness of the survival probability for annuity payments under minimal assumptions-the jump distribution need only be a probability measure on the positive half-line. For two-sided jumps smoothness holds whenever, in each regime, the jump distribution has no atoms on the negative half-line or the survival probability vanishes at the origin. This condition is sharp: an isolated atom combined with a positive value at the origin makes the second derivative discontinuous, and the size of the discontinuity is computed explicitly.

Exact asymptotics of the ruin probability in the Sparre Andersen model

For the Sparre Andersen non-life insurance model with investments in an arbitrary L\'evy process, we establish the exact power-law asymptotics of the ruin probability $\Psi(u)\sim C^* u^{-\beta}$ as $u\to\infty$ with a positive finite constant $C^*$; the exponent $\beta$ is the Cram\'er root of the Laplace exponent of the L\'evy process describing the logarithm of the risky asset price. This strengthens previously known two-sided estimates of the order -- the existence of an exact limit had remained an open question. The proof combines a reduction to discrete time, the one-dimensional Kesten-Goldie theorem for the stationary measure of the associated affine recursion, and Goldie's result on the asymptotics of the supremum of a perpetuity.

Existence of a classical solution to the integro-differential equation arising in the Cram\'er--Lundberg non-life insurance model with proportional investment

This paper establishes that the survival probability in the non-life Cram\'{e}r--Lundberg insurance model with proportional investment is a classical $C^2$-solution of the associated integro-differential equation under minimal moment conditions: it suffices that the claim size distribution is continuous and possesses a finite moment of some positive order.

Ruin Probabilities for a Sparre Andersen Model with Investments: the Case of Annuity Payments

This note is a complement to the paper by Eberlein, Kabanov, and Schmidt on the asymptotic of the ruin probability in a Sparre Andersen non-life insurance model with investments a risky asset whose price follows a geometric L\'evy process. Using the techniques of semi-Markov processes we extend the result of the mentioned paper to the case of annuities and models with two-sided jumps.
