Furthermore, the sequeces X = X } 1,Y = Y } 1 are assumed to be idepedet. By martigale method we obtai some iequalities for rui probability of the isurace compay, rui probability of the reisurace compay ad joit rui probability. Fially some umerical illustratios are give. Keywords: Quota reisurace, rui probability, joit rui probability, divisio ratio, Ludberg s iequality, supermartigale. 1 Itroductio Rui probability is a mai area i risk theory. Appeared i 1903 i the doctoral dissertatio of Ludberg,F [12].This topic, also of iterest to may authors, appeared i the research of may mathematicias, see [1,3,11,13,14,16] where upper bouds were estimated for rui probability havig expoetial form. Martigale approach is used to estimate the rui probability for such models as: i) the classical risk models, ii) the models of claim sizes ad premiums with sequeces of m-depedet radom variables, iii) the modes of iterest rates which ca be foud i the paper [4, 5, 18, 19, 7, 8]. Besides fidig methods to show the rui probability, the authors also build risk models to reflect the isurace busiess icreasigly more realistic. Oe of the models is Quota reisurace, preseted i the works, see [2, 10, 9]. I this paper, we ivestigate a Quota reisurace model i discrete time that we shall call it Quota -α,β) reisurace or Quota -α,β) share cotract. It is a cotract where the share proportio of the premium is differet from that of the claim, defied as follows: The quota - α, β) reisurace or quota - α, β) share cotract is a cotract betwee the isurace compay ad the reisurer to share premium Y =Y i } i 1 with a fixed proportio α [0,1]. Where Y i is the premium at the ed of the i period,,2,... paid by isured to the isurace compay) ad losses claim sizes) X =X i } i 1 with a fixed proportio β [0,1]. Where X i is the loss at the ed of the i period,,2,... claimed by the isured). Premium Y i : αy i kept by the cedat;1 α)y i trasfered to the reisurer. Claim loss X i : β X i paid by the cedat;1 β)x i paid by the reisurer. α, β [0, 1] are called divisio ratios.

Evidetly: lim ψ 1) u,t)=ψ 1) u); lim ψ 2) v,t)=ψ 2) v). t t I the classic model, see [2, 10] where α, β are cosidered equal. I this paper we ivestigate geralized model with α ad β are ay costat i[0, 1] satisfyig coditio 1.9). Recetly, some authors have studied the joit rui probability of isurace ad reisurace compaies, see [15, 9, 20]. We defie the fiite time t ad ultimate joit rui probabilities, respectively, by ψu, v, t), ψu, v): t [ Ui ψu,v,t)=p 0 ) V i 0 )]} 1.7) [ Ui ψu,v)=p 0 ) V i 0 )]} 1.8) ad we have lim ψu,v,t)=ψu,v). t I this paper, we cosider premium calculatio priciple based o the expected value priciple.

The paper is orgaized as follows: I sectio 2, first we show Lemma 2.1 about existece ad uiqueess of a adjustmet coefficiet, Lemma 2.2 is used to prove Z = exps ) } to be supermatigale, Lemma 2.3 is maximal iequality 1 for oegative supermartigale. Theorem 2.1 will preset probability iequality of the isurace compay. Similarly to Sectio 2, Sectio 3 is dedicated to show probability iequality of the reisurace compay ad to derive some probability iequalities for the joit rui probability.

Pro. 5, No. 3, ) / Probability iequalities for rui probability of the isurace compay Firstly, we preset three lemmas, which are ecessary for the proof of our mai result i Theorem 2.1). Lemma 2.1. Suppose that αey 1 )>βex 1 ) adp [ β X 1 αy 1 )>0 ] > 0, 2.1) the there exists a positive costat R 0 > 0 which is the uique root of the equatio E exp [ Rβ X 1 α Y 1 ) ]} = ) For all 0<R 1 R 0, we have E exp [ R 1 β X 1 α Y 1 ) ]} ) Proof. Cosider the fuctio gr)=e exp [ Rβ X 1 α Y 1 ) ]} 1 for R [0, ). We have g0)=0, g R)=E β X 1 αy 1 )exp [ Rβ X 1 α Y 1 ) ]}, By assumptio of Lemma 2.1 the g 0) = Eβ X 1 αy 1 ) < 0. Thus, the fuctio gr) is decreasig at 0. Further, ay turig poit of the fuctio is a miimum sice g R)=E β X 1 αy 1 ) 2 exp [ Rβ X 1 αy 1 ) ]} > 0. By Pβ X 1 αy 1 > 0)>0, we ca fid some costat δ 1 > 0 such that Pβ X 1 αy 1 > δ 1 )>0. We use the property that satisfyig if Z is radom variables satisfyig Z 0 the Z Z.1 A with ay A F gr) E exp [ Rβ X 1 αy 1 ) ] }.1 β X1 αy 1 >δ 1 ) 1 E [ expr.δ 1 ).1 β X1 αy 1 >δ 1 )] 1 = expr.δ 1 ).E [ 1 β X1 αy 1 >δ 1 )] 1 = expr.δ 1 ).P β X 1 αy 1 > δ 1 ) 1 2.4) The right- had of 2.4) whe R. Thus lim R gr)=. Cosequetly, there exists a uique positive root of the equatio 2.2), deoted by R 0. Sice, gr) is a covex fuctio with R [0, ) ad g0)=0,gr 0 )=0. If 0<R 1 R 0 the gr 1 ) 0which is equivalet to E exp [ R 1 β X 1 α Y 1 ) ]} 1. The Lemma 2.1 has bee prove. Lemma 2.2. see, [6] page 201) I the probabilistic space Ω,F,P), let U = ) ) U 1,U 2,...,U m,v = V1,V 2,...,V be radom vectors, idepedet of each other, ad f be a Borel s fuctio or m R where E fu,v).

I other words, uder the assumptio we ca computee [ fu,v) σu) ] as if U was a costat vector. Lemma 2.3. see, [17] page 493) Let Y =Y,F ) 0 be a oegative supermartigale.
