Abstract
In this paper, the objective is to provide sequences of improved non-increasing (non-decreasing) upper (lower) bounds for the solution of (defective) renewal equations in terms of the right-tail probability of a compound geometric distribution. Exponential (Lundberg type) and non-exponential type bounds are also derived. Also, under several reliability classifications, some new as well as improvements of well-known bounds are given. The results are then applied to obtain refinements of the bounds for several ruin related quantities, (such as the deficit at ruin, the joint distribution of the surplus prior to and at ruin, the mean deficit at ruin and the stop-loss premium, and the compound geometric densities). Bounds for the renewal function are also given.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
