Abstract
Abstract
The existence of moments of first downward passage times of a spectrally negative Lévy process is governed by the general dynamics of the Lévy process, i.e. whether it is drifting to
$+\infty$
,
$-\infty$
, or oscillating. Whenever the Lévy process drifts to
$+\infty$
, we prove that the
$\kappa$
th moment of the first passage time (conditioned to be finite) exists if and only if the
$(\kappa+1)$
th moment of the Lévy jump measure exists. This generalizes a result shown earlier by Delbaen for Cramér–Lundberg risk processes. Whenever the Lévy process drifts to
$-\infty$
, we prove that all moments of the first passage time exist, while for an oscillating Lévy process we derive conditions for non-existence of the moments, and in particular we show that no integer moments exist.

On q-scale functions of spectrally negative Lévy processes. ADV APPL PROBAB 2022. [DOI: 10.1017/apr.2022.10] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
Abstract
We obtain series expansions of the q-scale functions of arbitrary spectrally negative Lévy processes, including processes with infinite jump activity, and use these to derive various new examples of explicit q-scale functions. Moreover, we study smoothness properties of the q-scale functions of spectrally negative Lévy processes with infinite jump activity. This complements previous results of Chan et al. (Prob. Theory Relat. Fields150, 2011) for spectrally negative Lévy processes with Gaussian component or bounded variation.

Moments of the Ruin Time in a Lévy Risk Model. Methodol Comput Appl Probab 2022.

Abstract
AbstractWe derive formulas for the moments of the ruin time in a Lévy risk model and use these to determine the asymptotic behavior of the moments of the ruin time as the initial capital tends to infinity. In the special case of the perturbed Cramér-Lundberg model with phase-type or even exponentially distributed claims, we explicitly compute the first two moments of the ruin time. All our considerations distinguish between the profitable and the unprofitable setting.

Abstract
AbstractDrawdown/regret times feature prominently in optimal stopping problems, in statistics (CUSUM procedure), and in mathematical finance (Russian options). Recently it was discovered that a first passage theory with more general drawdown times, which generalize classic ruin times, may be explicitly developed for spectrally negative Lévy processes [9, 20]. In this paper we further examine the general drawdown-related quantities in the (upward skip-free) time-homogeneous Markov process, and then in its (general) tax process by noticing the pathwise connection between general drawdown and the tax process.
