Extensions of Katz-Panjer families of discrete distributions

Let Nα, β, γ be a discrete random variable whose probability atoms {pn }n∈N satisfy f(n+1) f(n) = α + β E(U n 0 ) E(U n γ ) , n= 0, 1, ..., for some α, β ∈ R, where Uγ ⌢Uniform(γ, 1), γ ∈ (−1, 1]. When γ → 1, Uγ → U1 , the degenerate random variable with unit mass at 1, and the above iterative expr...
