Absolute continuity of some semi-selfdecomposable distributions and self-similar measures (Q1579893): Difference between revisions

The paper studies semi-selfdecomposable distributions arising from continuous convolution semigroups with discrete Lévy measure. It is known that they are either absolutely continuous or continuous singular. However, no general results about absolute continuity in terms of the Lévy measure are known. The author proves various results about absolute continuity and continuous singularity for the present class. The results are related to the upper Hausdorff dimension of the marginal distributions. They apply to self-similar and \( b \)-decomposable distributions.
