In this work we study the ruin problem for a generalized Cramer-Lundberg reserve model with
investments, under the modeling (volatility and claim intensity)
uncertainty. We formulate the
problem in terms of the newly developed theory on G-Expectation,
initiated by S. Peng (2005).
More precisely, we recast the problem as to determine the ruin
probability under a G-expectation
for a reserve process with a G-Compound Poisson type claim
process, and perturbed by a
G-Brownian motion. We show that the Lundberg bounds for a finite
time ruin probability can
still be obtained by an exponential $G$-martingale approach, and
that the asymptotic behavior
of the ruin, as the initial endowment tends to infinity, can be
analyzed by the sample path large
deviation approach in a G-expectation framework, with respect to
the corresponding storage
process.
This is a joint work with Xin Wang.
