چکیده
Wu X, Li S. On the discounted penalty function in a discrete time renewal risk model with general interclaim times. Scandinavian Actuarial Journal. In this paper a discrete time renewal risk model with arbitrary interclaim times is discussed. We show that the expected discounted penalty function satisfies a recursive formula. In particular, the probability generating function of the time of ruin, as a function of the initial surplus, has a compound geometric tail. When the claim amounts follow a geometric distribution, explicit expression for the Gerber-Shiu function can be obtained for the specially chosen penalty function. The constant claim amounts and mixed geometric claim amounts are also examined.

On the discounted penalty function in the renewal risk model with general interclaim times
The defective renewal equation satisfied by the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty function in the renewal risk model with arbitrary interclaim times is analyzed. The ladder height distribution is shown to be a mixture of residual lifetime claim severity distributions, which results in an invariance property satisfied by a large class of claim amount models. In particular, when claims are exponenti...
متن کاملA note on compound renewal risk models with dependence
Over the last decade, there have been a significant amount of research works on compound renewal risk models with dependence. These risk models assume a dependence relation between interclaim times and claim amounts. In this paper, we pursue their investigation. We apply change of measure techniques within the compound renewal risk models with dependence to obtain exact expressions for the Gerb...
متن کاملOn the Discounted Penalty Function in a Markov-dependent Risk Model
We present a unified approach to the analysis of several popular models in collective risk theory. Based on the analysis of the discounted penalty function in a semi-Markovian risk model by means of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms, we rederive and extend some recent results in the field. In particular, the classical compound Poisson model, Sparre Andersen models with phase-type interclaim times an...
متن کاملAsymptotic aspects of the Gerber–Shiu function in the renewal risk model using Wiener–Hopf factorization and convolution equivalence
We study the asymptotic behavior of the Gerber–Shiu expected discounted penalty function in the renewal risk model. Under the assumption that the claim-size distribution has a convolution-equivalent density function, which allows both heavy-tailed and light-tailed cases, we establish some asymptotic formulas for the Gerber–Shiu function with a fairly general penalty function. These formulas bec...
متن کاملThe study of the discrete risk model with random income
In this paper, we extend the compound binomial model to the case where the premium income process, based on a binomial process, is no longer a linear function. First, a mathematically recursive formula is derived for non ruin probability, and then, we examine the expected discounted penalty function, satisfy a defect renewal equation. Third, the asymptotic estimate for the expected discounted p...
