1 RUIN PROBABILITIES FOR RISK PROCESSES WITH NON-STATIONARY ARRIVALS AND SUBEXPONENTIAL CLAIMS LINGJIONG ZHU Absrac. In his paper, we obain he finie-horizon and infinie-horizon ruin probabiliy asympoics for risk processes wih claims of subexponenial ails for non-saionary arrival processes ha saisfy a large deviaion principle. As a resul, he arrival process can be dependen, non-saionary and nonrenewal. We give hree examples of non-saionary and non-renewal poin processes: Hawkes process, Cox process wih sho noise inensiy and selfcorrecing poin process. We also show some aggregae claims resuls for hese hree examples. Le us consider a classical risk model. Inroducion N.) U = u + p C i, where C i are i.i.d. claims disribued as an R + -valued random variable C, p > is he premium rae, u > is he iniial reserve and N is a simple poin process. We are ineresed in he case when C i have heavy ails. A disribuion funcion B is subexponenial, i.e. B S if PC + C 2 > x).2) lim = 2, x PC > x) where C, C 2 are i.i.d. random variables wih disribuion funcion B. Le us denoe Bx) := PC x) and le us assume ha E[C ] < and define B x) := By)dy, where F x) = F x) is he complemen of any disribuion E[C] x funcion F x). In he paper, he noaion fx) gx) means lim x fx) gx) =. Goldie and Resnick [9] showed ha if B S and saisfies some smoohness condiions, hen B belongs o he maximum domain of aracion of eiher he Freche disribuion or he Gumbel disribuion. In he former case, B is regularly varying, i.e. Bx) = Lx)/x α+, for some α > and we wrie i as B R α ), α >. We assume ha B S and eiher B R α ) or B G, i.e. he maximum domain of aracion of Gumbel disribuion. G includes Weibull and lognormal disribuions. Dae: 6 April 23.

If T i are i.i.d., wih mean E[T ], hen N is a renewal process and assume he usual ne profi condiion.3) ρ := E[C ] pe[t ] <, hen, i is well known ha see Teugels and Veraverbeke [6], Veraverbeke [9] and Embrechs and Veraverbeke [8]),.4) lim ψu) B u) = ρ ρ, where ψu) := Pτ u < ) is he infinie-horizon ruin probabiliy, where.5) τ u := inf{ > : U }. The exensions when N is no a renewal process has been sudied in Asmussen e al. [4] when he auhors consider a risk process wih regeneraive srucures or a saionary and ergodic process saisfying cerain condiions. See also Araman and Glynn [], Schlegel [3] and Zwar e al. [23]. Bu in general, for a simple poin process N, we may no have a regeneraive srucure and i may no be saionary and ergodic as assumed in Asmussen e al. [4]. For example, none of he examples ha we will inroduce laer in Secion 3 are saionary or have a regeneraive srucure. In his paper, we poin ou ha he classical infinie-horizon ruin probabiliy esimae.4) and also finie-horizon ruin probabiliy esimae sill hold as long as here exiss a large deviaion principle for N / ), which is he main resul of his paper, i.e. Theorem 3 and Theorem 7 in Secion 2.. The inuiion behind i is ha if he arrival imes deviae away from is mean wih an exponenially small probabiliy, i will be dominaed by he subexponenial disribuions of he claim sizes. Our proof is essenially based on checking he condiions proposed in Asmussen e al. [4]. In Secion 2.2, we review some known resuls abou esimaes of aggregae claims when N is no necessarily renewal and show ha a condiion is saisfied given he large deviaion principle of N / ). Finally, in Secion 3, we give hree examples of non-renewal processes, i.e. Hawkes process which answers a quesion of Sabile and Torrisi [5]), Cox process wih sho noise inensiy which reproves a resul ha is known, see Asmussen and Albrecher [2]), and self-correcing poin process for which our resuls apply. 2. Risk Process wih Non-Renewal Arrivals and Regularly Varying Claims 2.. Ruin Probabilies. Before we proceed, recall ha a sequence P n ) n N of probabiliy measures on a opological space X saisfies he large deviaion principle LDP) wih rae funcion I : X R if I is non-negaive, lower semiconinuous and for any measurable se A, we have 2.) inf Ix) lim inf x Ao n n log P na) lim sup n n log P na) inf Ix). x A

See Dembo and Zeiouni [7] or Varadhan [8] for general background regarding large deviaions and he applicaions. Also Varadhan [7] has an excellen survey aricle on his subjec. Asmussen e al. [4] proved ha.4) holds if we have Lemma and Lemma 2. So our main ask here is o prove Lemma and Lemma 2 under following assumpions. Noice ha Lemma holds if T i ) i is a saionary and ergodic sequence by using ergodic heorem). And ha is he only place Asmussen e al. [4] used he saionariy and ergodiciy assumpion. Tha is why as long as we can prove Lemma we can drop he saionariy and ergodiciy assumpion. The following is he main assumpion for he asympoic resuls of ruin probabiliies ha we are going o esablish in his paper. Assumpion. i) N / ) saisfies a large deviaion principle wih rae funcion I ) such ha Ix) = if and only if x = µ. ii) Ix) is increasing on [µ, ) and decreasing on [, µ]. iii) The ne profi condiion is saisfied, 2.2) ρ := µe[c ] p <. iv) There exiss some θ > such ha E[e θ P n Ti ] < for any n N.

Replacing ɛ by pɛ and M by pm in he above equaion, i is sufficien o prove ha 2.4) lim sup P { n n= ) }) T i > n µ + ɛ + M = Observe ha {N n} = { n T i > } for any n N and R + and also for any fixed µ < µ, here exiss some δ > such ha Iµ ) δ > and for sufficienly large, 2.5) PN / < µ ) e [Iµ ) δ ], where we used fac ha Iµ ) > and I ) is decreasing on [, µ] from Assumpion.

Since B u) is subexponenial, we have he desired resul. We have he following asympoic esimaes for infinie-horizon ruin probabiliies.

5 RISK PROCESSES WITH SUBEXPONENTIAL CLAIMS 5 Theorem 3. Under Assumpion, we have 2.) lim ψu) B u) = ρ ρ. Proof. I is a direc resul of Lemma, Lemma 2 and Theorem 3.. in Asmussen e al. [4]. Remark 4. In Theorem 3, we can replace he large deviaion assumpion of N / ) by a large deviaion assumpion of n n T i ). Bu usually, if N / ) saisfies a large deviaion principle wih rae funcion Ix) if and only if n n T i ) saisfies a large deviaion principle wih rae funcion xi/x). The reason we chose o assume he large deviaion for N / ) in Assumpion is because when N is no renewal, he iner-occurrence imes are no i.i.d. and i is usually easier and more naural o esablish he large deviaion for N / ), which is a leas in he case of our hree examples, Hawkes process, Cox process wih sho noise inensiy and self-correcing poin process. Nex, le us consider he finie-horizon ruin probabiliies. Le eu) := E[C u C > u] be he mean excess funcion and 2.) ψu, z) := Pτ u z), z >, be he finie-horizon ruin probabiliy. Remark 5. i) Regularly Varying Disribuions) If Bu) = Lu) u, α, ), i.e. α+ B R α ), hen, eu) u α. ii) Lognormal Disribuions) If Bu) = log u µ)/σ 2π e x2 /2 dx, hen, B G and B S and eu) σ2 u log u µ. iii) Weibull Disribuions) If Bu) = e uα, where α, ), hen, B G and B S and eu) u α α. Gx+y) Lemma 6. For any y <, lim x x G S. = uniformly for y [, y ] for any Lemma 6 can be found in Chaper X of Asmussen and Albrecher [2]. We have he following asympoic esimaes for finie-horizon ruin probabiliies. Theorem 7. Under Assumpion and furher assume ha B S, we have, for any T >, i) If B R α ), [ ψu, eu)t ) 2.2) lim = ρ + ρ) T ) ] α. B u) ρ α ii) If B G, ψu, eu)t ) 2.3) lim = ρ [ ] e ρ)t. B u) ρ Proof. The proof is based on he ideas in Asmussen e al. [4] wih some modificaions. When N is a renewal process, Asmussen and Klüppelberg [3] proved boh

Now if N saisfies Assumpion, hen, by Lemma, { n } ) n 2.4) ψu, eu)t ) = P sup C i p T i > u n eu)t ɛ )P sup n eu)t { n C i n Now, in boh cases i) and ii), we know ha ex) ) } p µ + ɛ > u + M). R x By)dy Bx). Since boh Bx) and ex+y) B belong o S, Lemma 6 implies ha lim x ex) = uniformly for y [, y ] for any y <. Therefore, for any ɛ, ), we have eu) eu + M) ɛ ) for any sufficienly large u and hus we ge 2.5) ψu, eu)t ) ɛ )P sup n eu+m)t ɛ ) { n ) } p C i n µ + ɛ > u + M). Now assume B R α ). We have by he corresponding resul for renewal N in Asmussen and Klüppelberg [3] and Lemma 6, 2.6) lim inf ψu, eu)t ) B u) = lim inf ψu, eu)t ) B u + M) ρ ɛ ɛ [ ) + ρɛ )T ɛ )/α) α], ρ ɛ where ρ ɛ := E[C] p µ +ɛ. Since i holds for any ɛ, ɛ, ɛ >, we proved he lower bound. The case for B G is similar. Now, le us prove he upper bound. Choose ɛ > small enough ha p µ ɛ > E[C ], 2.7) lim sup = lim sup lim sup ψu, eu)t ) B u) Psup n eu)t { n C i npµ ɛ) + npµ ɛ) n T i} > u) B u) PX ɛ u) + Y ɛ > u), B u) where X ɛ u) := sup n eu) { n C i npµ ɛ)} and Y ɛ := sup n {npµ ɛ) n T PY i}. By Lemma 2, we have lim ɛ>u) = and by he resuls for he B u) renewal case Asmussen and Klüppelberg [3]), for B R α ), 2.8) PX ɛ u) > u) ρ ɛ ρ ɛ [ + ρɛ )T/α) α] B u), where ρ ɛ := E[C] pµ ɛ. Le us recall he Proposiion.9. of Chaper X in Asmussen and Albrecher [2] which says ha for any disribuions A, A 2 on R +, if we have A i x) a i Gx) for some G S and some consans a +a 2 >, hen, A A 2 x) a + a 2 )Gx). In our case Gx) = B x) S and A, A 2 are he disribuions of X ɛ u) and Y ɛ wih a > and a 2 =. Noice ha X ɛ u) and Y ɛ may be negaive. To save he argumen, we can simply use he fac ha X ɛ u) max{x ɛ u), }

7 RISK PROCESSES WITH SUBEXPONENTIAL CLAIMS 7 and Y ɛ max{y ɛ, } hen apply i o max{x ɛ u), } and max{y ɛ, } insead. Also, in our case, X ɛ u) depends on u, bu he proof of Proposiion.9. Chaper X in Asmusseen and Albrecher [2] sill works. Hence, we ge 2.9) lim sup ψu, eu)t ) B u) ρ ɛ ρ ɛ [ + ρɛ )T/α) α]. Since i holds for any ɛ, we proved he upper bound. similar. The case for B G is 2.2. Aggregae Claims. Le A := N C i be he aggregae claims up o ime, where as before we assume here ha C i are i.i.d. posiive random variables Consider he following assumpions. Assumpion 2. i) E[N ] < for any and E[N ] as. N ii) E[N ], as. iii) There exis ɛ, δ > such ha 2.2) PN > k) + ɛ) k, as. k>+δ)e[n ] Klüppelberg and Mikosch [2] proved ha under Assumpion 2, for fixed ime, we have 2.2) PA E[A ] > x) E[N ]PC x), uniformly for x γe[n ] for any γ >. Remark 8. Indeed, Klüppelberg and Mikosch [2] proved a slighly sronger resul which says 2.2) holds assuming ha he claim sizes C i are i.i.d. wih a disribuion funcion F ERV α, β) for some < α β <, where ERV denoes he space of exended regular varying funcions. I is usually easy o check i) and also under he assumpions in Theorem 3, N µ and N / ) saisfies a large deviaion principle wih rae funcion Ix) which is nonzero if and only if x µ. Therefore, if we assume we could prove ha E[N ] µ as, hen ii) is saisfied. Moreover iii) can be replaced by iii ) For any µ >, c µ := inf Ix) x µ x >. Assume iii ), we can find some < δ < δ such ha for any sufficienly large, 2.22) PN > k) + ɛ) k PN > k) + ɛ) k k>+δ)e[n ] k>+δ )µ k>+δ )µ k>+δ )µ k>+δ )µ e Ik/) ɛ ) + ɛ) k e Ik/) k ɛ +δ )µ )k + ɛ) k e c +δ )µ ɛ +δ )µ )k + ɛ) k. If we pick up ɛ > small enough such ha ɛ +δ )µ < c +δ )µ, hen, we can pick up ɛ > small enough so ha c +δ )µ ɛ +δ )µ > log + ɛ) and herefore by leing, iii) is saisfied.

8 8 LINGJIONG ZHU 3. Examples of Non-Renewal Arrival Processes 3.. Example : Hawkes Process. Hawkes process is a simple poin process ha has self-exciing propery, clusering effec and long memory. I was firs inroduced by Hawkes [] and has been widely applied in finance, seismology, neuroscience, DNA modelling and many oher fields. A simple poin process N is a linear Hawkes process if i has inensiy 3.) λ = + τ< h τ), h ) : [, ), ) is inegrable and h L <. We also assume ha N sars wih empy pas hisory, i.e. N, ] =. By our definiion, he Hawkes process is non-saionary and is in general even non-markovian unless h ) is an exponenial funcion). Also, i does no have a regeneraive srucure. Thus, he condiions in Asmussen e al. [2] do no apply here. Noice ha i is well known ha, see for example Daley and Vere-Jones [6]) N 3.2) lim = µ :=, h L and Bordenave and Torrisi [5] proved he a large deviaion principle for N / ), i.e. Lemma 9. Therefore, i is naural ha we can apply he resuls in our paper o sudy he ruin probabiliies wih subexponenial claims when he arrival process is a non-saionary linear Hawkes process. Lemma 9 Bordenave and Torrisi [5]). N / ) saisfies a large deviaion principle wih rae funcion, { ) x log x + x h L + if x [, ) 3.3) Ix) = x +x h L + oherwise Remark. Indeed, in Bordenave and Torrisi [5], hey expressed he rae funcion I ) in an alernaive way, which is less explici. The expression of he rae funcion in Lemma 9 was firs poined ou in Zhu [22]. Lemma. E[N] h L as. Proof. Taking expecaion of he indeniy λ = + h s)nds), we ge 3.4) E[λ ] = + h s)e[λ s ]ds + h L which implies ha for any, sup s E[λ s ] uniformly in.

To prove i) and ii), by Theorem 3 and Theorem 7, i is enough o check he condiions in Assumpion. i) and ii) of Assumpion 2 can be verified by he large deviaions resul in Lemma 9 and he properies of he rae funcion. iii) of Assumpion is he assumpion of he Proposiion 2. To check iv) of Assumpion, noice ha by he definiion of Hawkes process, N sochasically dominaes N, a homogenous Poisson process wih parameer >. Bu Ti corresponding o N are i.i.d. exponenially disribued wih parameer and hey sochasically dominae T i, he lengh of ime inerval beween wo consecuive arrivals of a Hawkes process. Bu we know ha exponenially disribuion has exponenial ails and hus for θ > small enough, E[e θ P n Ti ] E[e θ P n T i ] = E[e θt ] n < for any n N. Thus iv) of Assumpion holds. Now, o prove iii), i is enough o check i), ii) and iii ) of Assumpion 2. In he proof of Lemma

We consider a Cox process N wih inensiy λ ha follows a sho noise process 3.) λ = ) + g τ ) ), τ ) < where τ ) are he arrival imes of an exernal homogenous Poisson process wih inensiy γ. Here, g ) : R + R + is inegrable, i.e. g)d < and ) is a posiive, coninuous, deerminisic funcion such ha ) as. The ruin probabiliies for heavy-ailed claims wih arrival process being a sho noise Cox process is known in he lieraure, e.g. see he book by Asmussen and Albrecher [2]. Bu he echniques in he lieraure use he very specific feaures of sho noise Cox process and he proofs are much longer. Our proof essenially only needs he large deviaion resul for N / ) which is very easy o esablish. Since N ) is a Poisson process wih inensiy γ, by he definiion of λ, i is easy o see ha 3.2) N + γ g L, as. I is no clear o he auhor if he large deviaion resul for N / ) is known in he lieraure.

A self-correcing poin process, also known as he sress-release model, is a simple poin process N wih empy hisory, i.e. N, ] = such ha i admis he F -inensiy 3.2) λ := λz ), and Z := N.

Bu we know ha exponenially disribuion has exponenial ails and hus for θ > small enough, E[e θ P n Ti ] E[e θ P n T λ i ] = λ θt E[e ] n < for any n N. Thus iv) of Assumpion holds. Now, o prove iii), i is enough o check i), ii) and iii ) of Assumpion [ 2. I is easy o see ha ] ha λ λ + < for any > and hus E[N ] = E λ sds λ + < and i) of Assumpion 2 is verified. ii) of Assumpion 2 is a resul of Lemma 7 and law of large numbers of N / and finally iii ) of Assumpion 2 can be verified by easily checking he rae funcion in Lemma 6.
