| Résumé : | This paper is concerned with two families of multivariate polynomials: the Appell polynomials and the Abel-Gontcharoff polynomials. Both families are well-known in the univariate case, but their multivariate version is much less standard. We first provide a simple interpretation of these polynomials through particular constrained random walks on a lattice. We then derive nice analytical results for two special cases where the parameters of the polynomials are randomized. Thanks to the interpretation and randomization of the polynomials, we can derive new results and give other insights for the study of two different risk problems: the ruin probability in a multiline insurance model and the size distribution in a multigroup epidemic. |
