On perpetuities related to the size-biased distributions

Probability 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We study perpetuities of a special type related to the size-biased distributions. Necessary and sufficient conditions of their existence and uniqueness are obtained. A crucial point in proving all results is a close connection between perpetuities treated in the paper and fixed points of so-called Poisson shot noise transforms.
