In many applications, quantities of interest are represented as functionals of MAPs and potential measures, also known as resolvent measures, have played a key role in the representations of explicit solutions to these functionals. In this paper, closed-form solutions to potential measures for spectrally negative MAPs are found using a novel approach based on algebraic operations of matrix operators. This approach also provides a connection between results from fluctuation theoretic techniques and those from classical differential equation techniques. In the end, the paper presents a number of applications to ruin-related quantities as well as verification of known results concerning exit problemsEn: Insurance : mathematics and economics. - Oxford : Elsevier, 1990- = ISSN 0167-6687. - 03/11/2014 Volumen 59 Número 1 - noviembre 2014 I.
