Abstract

This paper considers a perturbed Markov‐modulated risk model with two‐sided jumps, where both the upward and downward jumps follow arbitrary distribution. We first derive a system of differential equations for the Gerber‐Shiu function. Furthermore, a numerical result is given based on Chebyshev polynomial approximation. Finally, an example is provided to illustrate the method.

Highlights

  • The risk model with two-sided jumps was first proposed by Boucherie et al 1 and has been further investigated by many authors during the last few years

  • The upward jumps can be explained as the random income premium or investment, while the downward jumps are interpreted as the random loss

  • For δ ≥ 0, let φi u E e−δT ω U T −, |U T | I T < ∞ | J 0 i, U 0 u, u ≥ 0, 1.4 be the Gerber-Shiu function at ruin given that the initial state is i, where ω x1, x2 is a nonnegative penalty function, U T − is the surplus immediately prior to ruin, and |U T | is the deficit at ruin
