Some recent results in infinite divisibility

Abstract

In this paper, a survey is given of some recent developments in infinite divisibility. There are three main topics: (i) the occurrence of infinitely divisible distributions in applied stochastic processes such as queueing processes and birth-death processes, (ii) the construction of infinitely divisible distributions, mainly by mixing, and (iii) conditions for infinite divisibility in terms of distribution functions and densities.
