Abstract��

In this paper, we consider a Sparre Andersen risk model in which
the claim inter-arrival distribution is a mixture of an Erlang($n$)
distribution and an Erlang($m$) distribution. Our purpose is to
study the Gerber-Shiu function $\phi_\delta(u)$. First, we show that
$\phi_\delta(u)$ satisfies a higher-order integro-differential
equation, and then we discuss the roots of the generalized
Lundberg's equation. On this basis, we drive the Laplace transform
of $\phi_\delta(u)$ and prove that $\phi_\delta(u)$ satisfies a
renewal equation. Finally, we consider an example.
