Mean first passage times of two-dimensional processes with jumps

In this paper, we incorporate a jump component into the model based on a two-dimensional degenerate diffusion process for the remaining lifetime of machines in the recent paper [Lefebvre, M., 2010. Mean first-passage time to zero for wear processes. Stochastic Models 26, 46–53] by the second author. We calculate explicitly the expected value of first passage times associated to the two-dimensional process when the jump component is taken to be a compound Poisson process with exponential jumps and random proportion of jumps.
