The major goal of the publication is to teach how a viscosity strategy can be utilized to take on regulate difficulties in assurance. the issues lined are the maximization of survival chance in addition to the maximization of dividends within the classical collective probability version. The authors reflect on the opportunity of controlling the danger strategy by means of reinsurance in addition to via investments. They convey that optimum price capabilities are characterised as both the original or the smallest viscosity resolution of the linked Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation; additionally they learn the constitution of the optimum concepts and convey how to define them.

The viscosity procedure was once widespread up to the mark difficulties regarding mathematical finance yet till relatively lately it was once now not used to unravel keep an eye on difficulties concerning actuarial mathematical technological know-how. This ebook is designed to familiarize the reader on the best way to use this procedure. The meant viewers is graduate scholars in addition to researchers during this area.
