We consider a two-dimensional ruin problem where the surplus process of business lines is modelled by a two …-dimensional correlated Brownian motion with drift. We study the ruin function P(u) for the component-wise ruin (that is both business lines …

In this paper, we generate boundary value problems for ruin probabilities of surplus-dependent premium risk processes …. Applying the approximation theory of solutions of linear ordinary differential equations, we derive the asymptotics of the ruin … can further determine their asymptotics. This allows us to recover the ruin probabilities obtained for general premiums …

Nonlinear economic variables have been tested for many years with linear models, thus making them insufficient in providing an explanation for real life. As a result of the recently conducted studies, nonlinear time series analyses are observed to be more successful in forming especially the...

In this paper we study a class of evolutionary models of industrial agglomeration with local positive feedbacks, which allow for a wide set of empirically-testable implications. Their roots rest in the Generalized Polya Urn framework. Here, however, we build on a birth-death process over a...

We provide an empirical framework for assessing the distributional properties of daily speculative returns within the context of the continuous-time jump diffusion models traditionally used in asset pricing finance. Our approach builds directly on recently developed realized variation measures...

This short note analyzes the distributional properties of Pareto Type III random variables. We introduce a three parameters version of the orignal two parameters distribution proposed by Pareto and derive both the density and the characteristic function. The analytic expression of the inverse...

This paper proposes an extension of the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition from two to a continuum of comparison groups. The proposed decomposition is then estimated for the case of racial wage differences in urban Peru, exploiting a novel data set that allows the capturing of mestizaje (racial...
