FINITE HORIZON RUIN PROBABILITIES FOR RANDOM WALKS WITH HEAVY TAILED INCREMENTS
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 March 2013
Abstract
We study the asymptotic behavior of finite horizon ruin probabilities for random walks with heavy tailed increment via corrected diffusion approximation. We follow the main idea in [4] of inverting Fourier transformation, and the Fourier transformation is calculated through optimal stopping and a central limit theorem for renewal process.
