Abstract
It is shown that for a non-decreasing self-similar stochastic process with independent increments, the range of forms a Poisson point process with -finite intensity if and only if the one-dimensional distribution of is of the gamma type. This follows from a general hold-jump description of such processes , and implies the known result that the spacings between consecutive points of a scale invariant Poisson point process, with intensity , are the points of another scale invariant Poisson point process with the same intensity.
