[For the entire collection see Zbl 0671.00011.] The following well-known uniqueness theorem for measures has been proved by A. I. Plotkin and W. Rudin independently: If \(p>0\), \(p\neq 2k\), \(k\in{\mathbb{N}}\), and for all \(t\in{\mathbb{C}}\), \[ \int_{\mathbb{C}}\mid z+t\mid^ pd\mu(z)=\int_{\mathbb{C}}\mid z+t\mid^ pd\nu(z)<\infty, \] then \(\mu=\nu\), where \(\mu\) and \(\nu\) are finite Borel measures on the complex plane \({\mathbb{C}}\). The authors of the paper under review investigate measures \(\mu\) and \(\nu\) on \({\mathbb{C}}\) which satisfy the same equations for real numbers \(t\) only (in this case they write \(\mu\sim_ \rho\nu\)). Such measures can be essentially different even if \(p\neq 2k\), \(k\in{\mathbb{N}}\). Nevertheless, some special projections of these measures onto the real line are equal. This result leads to new uniqueness theorems under some additional assumptions about \(\mu\) and \(\nu\). For instance, if \(\mu\sim_ \rho\nu\), \(\mu\) and \(\nu\) are symmetric Gaussian measures on \({\mathbb{C}}\) and \(p\neq 2k\), \(k\in{\mathbb{N}}\), then either \(\mu=\nu\) or \(\mu=\bar\nu\) with \(\bar\nu(B)=\nu\{z\in{\mathbb{C}}:\bar z\in B\}\) for all Borel subsets \(B\) of \({\mathbb{C}}\). If \(\mu\) and \(\nu\) are \(\alpha\)-stable symmetric measures on \({\mathbb{C}}\), \(\mu=\bar\mu\), \(1\leq \alpha<2\) and \(p<\alpha\), then \(\mu\sim_ \rho\nu\) yields \(\mu=\nu\). Some problems stimulating further investigations are stated.
