Weakly infinitely divisible measures on some locally compact Abelian groups

Abstract

On the torus group, on the group of p-adic integers and on the p-adic solenoid, we give a construction of an arbitrary weakly infinitely divisible probability measure using a random element with values in a product of (possibly infinitely many) subgroups of the real numbers. As a special case of our results, we have a new construction of the Haar measure on the p-adic solenoid.
