In this paper, we study the Gerber-Shiu functions for a risk model with two independent classes of risks. We suppose that both of the two claim number processes are renewal processes with phase-type inter-claim times. By re-composing and analyzing the Markov chains associated with two given phase-ty

✦ Synopsis
In this paper, we consider the ruin problems for a risk model involving two independent classes of insurance risks. We assume that the claim number processes are independent Poisson and generalized Erlang(n) processes, respectively. When the generalized Lundberg equation has distinct roots with positive real parts, both of the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty functions with zero initial surplus and the Laplace transforms of the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty functions are obtained. Finally, some explicit expressions for the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty functions with positive initial surplus are given when the claim size distributions belong to the rational family.

In this paper, the discounted penalty (Gerber-Shiu) functions for a risk model involving two independent classes of insurance risks under a threshold dividend strategy are developed.

In this paper, we consider two dependent classes of insurance business with heavy-tailed claims. The dependence comes from the assumption that claim arrivals of the two classes are governed by a common renewal counting process. We study two types of ruin in the two-dimensional framework. For each ty
