When the adjustment coefficient lies inside the finite domain of the claim moment-generating function, the tilted kernel has finite mean $(\lambda M^{\prime }(R)-c)/(cR)$. The forcing integral is $(c-\lambda \mu )/(cR)$. Their ratio is the constant $C$ in $\psi (u)\sim C{e}^{-Ru}$, by the key renewal theorem. An extra exponential moment controls the forcing tails and proves direct Riemann integrability.

For nontrivial positive claim sizes in the classical risk model and $\lambda >0$, the adjustment coefficient is the unique positive solutionIndeed, $h(r)=\lambda (M_X(r)-1)-cr$ has $h(0)=0$, $h^{\prime }(0)=\lambda \mu -c<0$, and is strictly convex. It becomes positive near the right endpoint of the moment-generating function domain. For a finite endpoint this follows from the assumed divergence; for an infinite endpoint, $\mathbb{P}(X\ge \epsilon )>0$ for some $\epsilon >0$ gives an exponential lower bound on $M_X(r)$, which eventually exceeds any linear function. Convexity gives existence and uniqueness of the positive crossing and $\lambda M_X^{\prime }(R)-c>0$.

Put $q=\lambda \mu /c$ and $\overline{F}=1-F$. Substituting $\phi =1-\psi$ into the supplied survival renewal equation for a classical risk model, and using ${\int }_0^{\infty }\overline{F}(x)dx=\mu$, yieldsMultiplying by $e^{Ru}$ gives the proper renewal-type equationThe exponential tilt of the ruin renewal kernel turns a defective kernel into a probability density function, because the tail integration identity givesThis identity follows also by integrating $e^{RX}-1=R{\int }_0^X{e}^{Rx}dx$ and applying Tonelli theorem. The tilted probability density function defines a nonarithmetic distribution, even if the claim size probability distribution itself has atoms.

Differentiate $(M_X(R)-1)/R$ to calculate its mean:It is finite and positive because $R$ is inside the finite moment-generating function domain. Next, reversing the order of integration givesThe forcing function is directly Riemann integrable. Choose $\epsilon >0$ with $M_X(R+\epsilon )<\infty$. Markov's inequality bounds $\overline{F}(x)$ by $M_X(R+\epsilon )e^{-(R+\epsilon )x}$, so $g_R(u)$ is bounded by a constant times $e^{-\epsilon u}$. It is continuous; on finite intervals continuity controls its Riemann sums, and the exponential envelope controls the tails. These are sufficient conditions for direct Riemann integrability.

Iterating the renewal equation by convolution gives $Z=g_R\ast U_R$, where $U_R={\sum }_{n\ge 0}{k}_R^{\ast n}$ is the renewal measure. The remainder after $n$ iterations is bounded on each fixed interval by a constant times the chance that a sum of $n$ positive interarrivals remains in that interval, which tends to zero. The key renewal theorem, applicable to this nonarithmetic distribution of finite mean and the directly integrable forcing, now gives the interior adjustment coefficient ruin prefactor:Both numerator and denominator are positive, so $0<A<\infty$.

For the unit-rate shape-two Erlang distribution, $\mu =2$, $M_X(r)=(1-r{)}^{-2}$ and $M_X^{\prime }(r)=2(1-r{)}^{-3}$. Write $\delta =\lambda /c$, so positive loading requires $0<\delta <1/2$. Dividing the adjustment coefficient equation by its nonzero root gives $\delta (2-R)=(1-R{)}^2$. ThusThe last simplification uses $\delta =(1-R{)}^2/(2-R)$; it is the Erlang shape-two ruin prefactor. Its value depends on the premium-to-arrival ratio, which is not specified numerically.

For the final exponential representation, evaluating at zero in the survival renewal equation for a classical risk model gives $\lambda \mu /c=\psi (0)=a+b$. If the slower term is present, necessarily $a>0$ and $e^u\psi (u)\to a$. Comparing with the finite positive asymptotic constant just proved yieldsA smaller adjustment coefficient would make the limit zero and a larger one would make it infinite. Here the leading exponential term determines a ruin adjustment coefficient. The coefficient $b$ need not be assumed positive to identify the leading term.

The wording does not specify that $a$ is nonzero. If $a=0$ and $b>0$, the only surviving term instead gives $R=6$, $A=b$ and $\lambda \mu /c=b$. This case is realizable: claims with an exponential distribution of rate $\beta =6+\lambda /c$ have ultimate ruin probability $(\lambda /(c\beta ))e^{-6u}$. Negative $a$ would make the ultimate ruin probability negative for large $u$, and both coefficients zero are incompatible with a nontrivial positive claim rate and mean. These observations specify the coefficient qualification needed for the usual $R=1$ answer.

In the classical risk model write $U(t)=u+ct-{\sum }_{j=1}^{N(t)}{X}_j$, where the Poisson process $N(t)$ has rate $\lambda$ and is independent of the claim sizes. Define the ruin time and ultimate ultimate ruin probability byThe relative safety loading is $\rho =c/(\lambda \mu )-1>0$, so $c=(1+\rho )\lambda \mu$. The adjustment coefficient is the nonzero positive solutionExistence and uniqueness follow from the secant-slope existence criterion for an adjustment coefficient. Explicitly, $\lambda (M(r)-1)-cr$ has derivative $\lambda \mu -c<0$ at zero and is strictly convex for positive claims. The assumed divergence of $M$ makes it cross zero once at a positive $R<r_{\infty }$. When $r_{\infty }=\infty$, an exponential lower bound from any positive tail event shows that $M(r)/r\to \infty$. In particular $R$ is inside the finite-transform domain, not at its endpoint.

Put $\overline{F}=1-F$. Replacing $\phi =1-\psi$ in the survival renewal equation for a classical risk model yieldsBy the tail integral formula for moments, $\mu ={\int }_0^{\infty }\overline{F}(x)dx$. Therefore this is the defective renewal equationThe original kernel has mass $\lambda \mu /c=1/(1+\rho )<1$. For the exponential tilt of the ruin renewal kernel, setMultiplying by $e^{Ru}$ gives the required proper renewal equationTo verify that this is a probability renewal kernel, Tonelli theorem gives, for $r>0$ in the finite-transform domain,The adjustment coefficient equation consequently implies ${\int }_0^{\infty }{k}_R(x)dx=1$. Its expected value isIt is finite because $R$ is interior to the finite-transform domain and is positive because the strict convex crossing has derivative $\lambda M^{\prime }(R)-c>0$.

We quote the key renewal theorem in the following form: for a nonarithmetic distribution $K$ of positive increments with finite positive mean $m$, and a directly Riemann integrable nonnegative function $h$, the locally bounded solution of $z=h+z\ast K$ satisfies $z(u)\to m^{-1}{\int }_0^{\infty }h$. It has renewal representation $z=h\ast {\sum }_{j\ge 0}{K}^{\ast j}$; this follows by iterating the equation, since the probability that arbitrarily many positive increments have sum at most a fixed $u$ tends to zero.

Here $K_R(dx)=k_R(x)dx$ is absolutely continuous, and hence nonarithmetic distribution, even if the original claim law has atoms. The function $h_R$ is continuous. Choose $\delta >0$ with $M(R+\delta )<\infty$. The Markov inequality gives $\overline{F}(x)\le M(R+\delta )e^{-(R+\delta )x}$, and hence $h_R(u)\le C_{\delta }{e}^{-\delta u}$. Continuity on compact intervals and this exponential bound make the upper Riemann sums finite with uniformly vanishing tails, proving direct Riemann integrability.

A further application of Tonelli theorem evaluates the forcing integral:All hypotheses of the key renewal theorem are now checked, so the interior adjustment coefficient ruin prefactor isThis proves the requested Cramér–Lundberg ruin asymptotic, including its constant.

For the two-component hyperexponential distribution, conditioning on the chosen exponential component givesIts moment-generating function and derivative areThe moment-generating function diverges at $1/2$, while the derivative of the adjustment equation at zero is negative. Strict convexity therefore places its unique positive adjustment coefficient inThe adjustment equation, divided by $R$, becomesUsing this identity to subtract $(1+\rho )\mu$ from $M^{\prime }(R)$ givesThus the asymptotic constant in terms of $\rho$ and $R$ isThe denominator is positive on the identified domain. If desired, $R$ is the smaller root of $6(1+\rho )R^2-(5+9\rho )R+3\rho =0$; the other algebraic root lies outside the positive finite-transform interval and is not an adjustment coefficient.

Use $c_{\mathrm{prem}}$ for the premium income rate, reserving $c$ later for the smaller exponential decay rate. In the classical risk model, the surplus isHere $\rho$ is the relative safety loading. The aggregate claims form a Compound Poisson process. Define $L_t={\sum }_{j=1}^{N_t}{X}_j-c_{\mathrm{prem}}t$, so ruin occurs when $L_t>u$. By independent increments and the exponential formula for a marked Poisson sum,Thus $Z_t=e^{R{L}_t}$ is a nonnegative continuous-time martingale with $Z_0=1$, because the adjustment coefficient makes the exponent vanish.

Let $\tau =\inf \{t:U_t<0\}$. Apply the optional stopping theorem at the bounded stopping time $\tau \wedge T$. On $\{\tau \le T\}$, $L_{\tau }>u$, soLetting $T$ increase proves the Lundberg inequality and the unscaled limit:

For the precise asymptotic, putThe given exponential integral identity makes $k$ a probability density. Multiplying the given defective renewal equation by $e^{Ru}$ turns it into the ordinary renewal equationFor clarity, the version of the key renewal theorem used here is: if the interarrival law is nonarithmetic, has mean $m_k\in (0,\infty )$, and $g$ is directly Riemann integrable, the locally bounded solution of this renewal equation satisfies $z(u)\to m_k^{-1}{\int }_0^{\infty }g(v)dv$. The infinite-mean version gives zero for nonnegative directly Riemann integrable $g$.

All the hypotheses can be checked here. The density $k$ gives a nonarithmetic distribution. The Tonelli theorem givesFurthermoreThus $g$ is continuous and integrable, and ${\int }_0^{\infty }|g^{\prime }(u)|du\le R\int g+1<\infty$. On a mesh of width $\delta$, the difference between its upper and lower sums is at most $\delta \int |g^{\prime }|$; its upper sum is at most $\int g+\delta \int |g^{\prime }|$. This proves direct Riemann integrability rather than assuming it. Also $0\le z(u)\le 1$ by the Lundberg inequality, so the solution is locally bounded. Its renewal representation is $z=g\ast U_k$, where $U_k={\sum }_{j\ge 0}{K}^{\ast j}$ and $K(dx)=k(x)dx$; the residual after iteration tends to zero on compact intervals because sums of positive interarrivals tend to infinity.

Writing $J={\int }_0^{\infty }x{e}^{Rx}{f}_I(x)dx$, the tilted interarrival expected value is $m_k=hJ$. The key renewal theorem gives the Cramér–Lundberg ruin asymptoticIf $J=\infty$, the same formula is interpreted as $A=0$. A positive finite asymptotic constant requires $J<\infty$; this extra integrability is not explicitly stated in the paper.

For the final two-exponential case, evaluate the defective renewal equation at zero:One can identify the adjustment coefficient without silently assuming $A>0$. For $0<r<c$, setIt is finite and positive. Integrating the nonnegative terms of the defective renewal equation, using the Tonelli theorem, first shows that $F_I(r)={\int }_0^{\infty }{e}^{rx}{f}_I(x)dx$ is finite and then givesAs $r\uparrow c$, $P(r)\to \infty$ because $a>0$. By monotone convergence theorem, $h{F}_I(c)=1$. The integrated tail distribution in the classical risk model has density $f_I(x)=\mathbb{P}(X_1>x)/\mu$, so $F_I(r)=[M(r)-1]/(\mu r)$ by the tail integral formula for moments. Hence $c$ solves the adjustment equation, and its stipulated uniqueness implies $R=c$. Finally the displayed form of $\psi$ gives the remaining constantsIn particular the decay exponent $d$ and the coefficient $b$ do not affect $R$ or $A$. The $c$ in these final answers is the printed decay rate, not $c_{\mathrm{prem}}$.
