Abstract

Given a spectrally-negative Lévy process and independent Poisson observation times, we consider a periodic barrier strategy that pushes the process down to a certain level whenever the observed value is above it. We also consider the versions with additional classical reflection above and/or below. Using scale functions and excursion theory, various fluctuation identities are computed in terms of the scale functions. Applications in de Finetti’s dividend problems are also discussed.
