In this article, the compound Poisson process of order k (CPPoK) is introduced and its properties are discussed. Further, using mixture of tempered stable subordinators (MTSS) and its right continuous inverse, the two subordinated CPPoK with various distributional properties are studied. It is also shown that the space and tempered space fractional versions of CPPoK and PPoK can be obtained, which generalize the process defined in [Statist. Probab. Lett. 82 (2012), 852–858].

The aim of this paper is to study the laws of exponential functionals of the processes $X={({X_{s}})_{s\ge 0}}$ with independent increments, namely and also Under suitable conditions, the integro-differential equations for the density of ${I_{t}}$ and ${I_{\infty }}$ are derived. Sufficient conditions are derived for the existence of a smooth density of the laws of these functionals with respect to the Lebesgue measure. In the particular case of Lévy processes these equations can be simplified and, in a number of cases, solved explicitly.

We deal with a generalization of the risk model with stochastic premiums where dividends are paid according to a constant dividend strategy and consider heuristic approximations for the ruin probability. To be more precise, we construct five- and three-moment analogues to the De Vylder approximation. To this end, we obtain an explicit formula for the ruin probability in the case of exponentially distributed premium and claim sizes. Finally, we analyze the accuracy of the approximations for some typical distributions of premium and claim sizes using statistical estimates obtained by the Monte Carlo methods.

A new multi-factor short rate model is presented which is bounded from below by a real-valued function of time. The mean-reverting short rate process is modeled by a sum of pure-jump Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes such that the related bond prices possess affine representations. Also the dynamics of the associated instantaneous forward rate is provided and a condition is derived under which the model can be market-consistently calibrated. The analytical tractability of this model is illustrated by the derivation of an explicit plain vanilla option price formula. With view on practical applications, suitable probability distributions are proposed for the driving jump processes. The paper is concluded by presenting a post-crisis extension of the proposed short and forward rate model.

In this paper we establish the existence and the uniqueness of the solution of a special class of BSDEs for Lévy processes in the case of a Lipschitz generator of sublinear growth. We then study a related problem of logarithmic utility maximization of the terminal wealth in the filtration generated by an arbitrary Lévy process.

The paper deals with a generalization of the risk model with stochastic premiums where dividends are paid according to a multi-layer dividend strategy. First of all, we derive piecewise integro-differential equations for the Gerber–Shiu function and the expected discounted dividend payments until ruin. In addition, we concentrate on the detailed investigation of the model in the case of exponentially distributed claim and premium sizes and find explicit formulas for the ruin probability as well as for the expected discounted dividend payments. Lastly, numerical illustrations for some multi-layer dividend strategies are presented.

The problem of European-style option pricing in time-changed Lévy models in the presence of compound Poisson jumps is considered. These jumps relate to sudden large drops in stock prices induced by political or economical hits. As the time-changed Lévy models, the variance-gamma and the normal-inverse Gaussian models are discussed. Exact formulas are given for the price of digital asset-or-nothing call option on extra asset in foreign currency. The prices of simpler options can be derived as corollaries of our results and examples are presented. Various types of dependencies between stock prices are mentioned.
