Mixed Periodic-classical barrier strategies for L\'evy risk processes

Probability 2018-01-11 v2

Abstract

Given a spectrally negative L\'evy process and independent Poisson observation times, we consider a periodic barrier strategy that pushes the process down to a certain level whenever it is above it. We also consider the versions with additional classical reflection above and/or below. Using scale functions and excursion theory, various fluctuation identities are computed in terms of the scale function. Applications in de Finetti's dividend problems are also discussed.
