Abstract

Let a(1)>0a(1) >0, a(n)0a(n) \ge 0 for n2n \ge 2 and a(n)=O(nε)a(n) = O(n^\varepsilon) for any ε>0\varepsilon >0, and put Z(σ+it):=n=1a(n)nσitZ(\sigma + it):= \sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n) n^{-\sigma - it} where σ,tR\sigma , t \in {\mathbb{R}}. In the present paper, we show that any zeta distribution whose characteristic function is defined by Zσ(t):=Z(σ+it)/Z(σ){\mathcal{Z}}_\sigma (t) :=Z(\sigma + it)/Z(\sigma) is pretended infinitely divisible if σ>1\sigma >1 is sufficiently large. Moreover, we prove that if Zσ(t){\mathcal{Z}}_\sigma (t) is an infinitely divisible characteristic function for some σid>1\sigma_{id} >1, then Zσ(t){\mathcal{Z}}_\sigma (t) is infinitely divisible for all σ>1\sigma >1. Note that the corresponding L\'evy or quasi-L\'evy measure can be given explicitly. A key of the proof is a corrected version of Theorem 11.14 in Apostol's famous textbook.
