Ruin probability with Parisian delay for a spectrally negative Lévy risk process

I Czarna, Z Palmowski - Journal of Applied Probability, 2011 - cambridge.org
In this paper we analyze the so-called Parisian ruin probability, which arises when the
surplus process stays below 0 longer than a fixed amount of time ζ> 0. We focus on a …
