Abstract

Characterizations of stable laws are given using a certain number theoretic result in Hardy [Hardy, G. H. (1967). A First Course of Pure Mathematics. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press], in conjunction with Deny's theorem [Deny, J. (1966). Sur l'equation de convolution μμ∗s. Semin. Theory Potent. (Ed. M. Brelot), Fac. Sci. Paris. 250:1959-1960 (4e année.)] or the Lau-Rao theorem [Lau, K. S., Rao, C. R. (1982). Integrated Cauchy functional equation and characterizations of the exponential law. Sankhya Ser. A 44:72-90] on integral equations. Some observations of relevance to the characterizations or the arguments employed to obtain these are also made.
