Abstract

This paper relates to Schur-constant vectors in their usual continuous version. Our first goal is to highlight the existing links with L1 symmetric Dirichlet vectors and Archimedean copulas. This leads us to briefly review the main properties of these three dependency models. Several special cases, mostly classical, are also examined in this context. Next, a discrete time risk model is considered in which the successive claims amounts constitute a Schur-constant vector. A simple compact formula is obtained for the corresponding probabilities of ruin. Its application is illustrated by some numerical examples.
