Central research topics are (a) Bayesian modeling in insurance mathematic using ideas and concepts from economics, including game-theoretic aspects of the customer-company interaction and premium calculation in bonus-malus systems; (b) calculation of error probabilities in fault-tolerant computing, in particular in models involving checkpointing, repair and standby; (c) matrix-analytic computational probability, in particular phase-type distributions in Levy processes and stochastic volatility models; (d) sums of random variables, in particular the study of dependence and the lognormal distribution; (e) Monte Carlo simulation.
