    On the semi-Markovian random walk process with reflecting and delaying barriers (English)
    0 references
    A semi-Markovian random walk process \(X(t)\) is considered with a reflecting barrier on the zero level and a delaying barrier at some positive level \(\beta>0\). The first falling moment into a delaying barrier \(\gamma\) is studied. In particular, the distribution function, moment generating function and the expected value of \(\gamma\) are studied. The techniques involve a combination of renewal and random walk theories.
