Abstract

We answer the question posed by Pitman and Yor (Canad. J. Math. 55 (2003) 292-330) about the existence of probability distributions which solve distributional equation of a special type. In the "typical" case we study the tail behaviour of these distributions. Two new explicit examples are given.
