Abstract

A new class of type G selfdecomposable distributions on ℝd is introduced and characterized in terms of stochastic integrals with respect to Lévy processes. This class is a strict subclass of the class of type G and selfdecomposable distributions, and in dimension one, it is strictly bigger than the class of variance mixtures of normal distributions by selfdecomposable distributions. The relation to several other known classes of infinitely divisible distributions is established.
