Abstract: A refracted L'evy process is a L'evy process whose dynamics change by subtracting off a fixed linear drift (of suitable size) whenever the aggregate process is above a pre-specified level. More precisely, whenever it exists, a refracted L'evy process is described by the unique strong solution to the stochastic differential equation [ ud U_t=-deltamathbf{1}_{{U_t>b}}ud t +ud X_t, ] where X=(Xt,tge0) is a L'evy process with law p and b,deltainR such that the resulting process U may visit the half line (b,infty) with positive probability. In this paper, we consider the case that X is spectrally negative and establish a number of identities for the following functionals [ int_0^inftymathbf{1}_{{U_t<b}}ud t, quadint_0^{ ho_a^+}mathbf{1}_{{U_t<b}}ud t, quadint_0^{ ho^-_c}mathbf{1}_{{U_t<b}}ud t, quadint_0^{ ho_a^+land ho^-_c}mathbf{1}_{{U_t<b}}ud t, ] where hoa+=inftge0:Ut>a and hoc=inftge0:Ut<c for c<b<a. Our identities extend recent results of Landriault et al. cite{LRZ} and bear relevance to Parisian-type financial instruments and insurance scenarios.
