This paper investigates the two-sided first exit problem for a jump process having jumps with rational Laplace transform. The corresponding boundary value problem is solved to obtain an explicit formula for the first passage functional. Also, we derive the distribution of the first passage time to two-sided barriers and the value at the first passage time.

We consider the two-sided first-exit problem for a jump process having jumps with rational Laplace transform. We derive the joint distribution of the first passage time to two-sided barriers and the value of process at the first passage time. As applications, we present explicit expressions of the dividend formulae for barrier strategy and threshold strategy.

In this paper we determine the distributions of occupation times of a Markov-modulated Brownian motion (MMBM) in separate intervals before a first passage time or an exit from an interval. We derive the distributions in terms of their Laplace transforms, and we also distinguish between occupation times in different phases. For MMBMs with strictly positive variation parameters, we further propose scale functions.

Fast stable methods for inverting multidimensional Laplace transforms have been developed in recent years by Abate, Whitt and others. We use these methods here to compute numerically the first-passage-time distribution for a spectrally one-sided Lévy process; the basic algorithm is not easy to apply, and we have to develop a variant of it. The numerical performance is as good as the original algorithm.

We study first passage problems of a class of reflected generalized Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes without positive jumps. By establishing an extended Dynkin's formula associated with the process, we derive that the joint Laplace transform of the first passage time and an integral functional stopped at the time satisfies a truncated integro-differential equation. Two solvable examples are presented when the driven Lévy process is a drifted-Brownian motion and a spectrally negative stable process with index α ∈ (1, 2], respectively. Finally, we give two applications in finance.

Expansions for the first-passage-time p.d.f. through a constant boundary and for its Laplace transform are derived in terms of probability currents for a temporally homogeneous diffusion process. Ultimate absorption and recurrence problems are also considered. The moments of the first-passage time are finally explicitly obtained.

In this paper, we will explore the stochastic exit problem for the gene regulatory circuit in B. subtilis affected by colored noise. The stochastic exit problem studies the state transition in B. subtilis (from competent state to vegetative state in this case) through three different quantities: the probability density function of the first passage time, the mean of first passage time, and the reliability function. To satisfy the Markov nature, we convert the colored noise system into the equivalent white noise system. Then, the stochastic generalized cell mapping method can be used to explore the stochastic exit problem. The results indicate that the intensity of noise and system parameters have the effect on the transition from competent to vegetative state in B. subtilis. In addition, the effectiveness of the stochastic generalized cell mapping method is verified by Monte Carlo simulation.

We study the functionals of a Poisson marked processΠobserved by a renewal process. A sequence of observations continues untilΠcrosses some fixed level at one of the observation epochs (the first passage time). In various stochastic models applications (such as queueing withN-policy combined with multiple vacations), it is necessary to operate with the value ofΠprior to the first passage time, or prior to the first passage time plus some random time. We obtain a time-dependent solution to this problem in a closed form, in terms of its Laplace transform. Many results are directly applicable to the time-dependent analysis of queues and other stochastic models via semi-regenerative techniques.
