Abstract: We call a point process Z on mathbbR emph{exp-1-stable} if for every with , Z is equal in law to , where Z is an independent copy of Z and Tx is the translation by x. Such processes appear in the study of the extremal particles of branching Brownian motion and branching random walk and several authors have proven in that setting the existence of a point process D on mathbbR such that Z is equal in law to sumi=1inftyTxiiDi, where (xii)ige1 are the atoms of a Poisson process of intensity ex,mathrmdx on mathbbR and (Di)ige1 are independent copies of D and independent of (xii)ige1. In this note, we show how this decomposition follows from the classic emph{LePage decomposition} of a (union)-stable point process. Moreover, we give a short proof of it in the general case of random measures on mathbbR.
