Abstract |
|
We generalize Pym’s decomposition w = μE ∗ wH ∗ μF of idempotent probability measures to the decomposition μE ∗ℋ(wH) ∗ μF of the maximal groups of units in semigroup of probability measures on a compact semitopological semigroup. We also prove that ℋ(w)≅ℋ(wH)≅N(H)∕H algebraically and topologically. With these characterizations, we verify Rosenblatt’s necessary and sufficient condition for the convergence of a convolution sequence (νn)n≧1 of a probability measure ν on a compact topological semigroup. |
