Two-parameter Sample Path Large Deviations for Infinite Server Queues

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let Qλ(t,y)Q_λ(t,y) be the number of people present at time tt with yy units of remaining service time in an infinite server system with arrival rate equal to λ>0λ>0. In the presence of a non-lattice renewal arrival process and assuming that the service times have a continuous distribution, we obtain a large deviations principle for Qλ(⋅)/λQ_λ(\cdot) /λ under the topology of uniform convergence on [0,T]×[0,∞)[0,T]\times\lbrack0,\infty). We illustrate our results by obtaining the most likely path, represented as a surface, to ruin in life insurance portfolios, and also we obtain the most likely surfaces to overflow in the setting of loss queues.
