Let X(t) be the position at time t of a particle undergoing a simple symmetrical random walk in continuous time, i.e. the particle starts at the origin at time t = 0 and at times T1, T1 + T2, … it undergoes jumps ξ1, ξ2, …, where the time intervals T1, T2, … between successive jumps are mutually independent random variables each following the exponential density e–t while the jumps, which are independent of the τi, are mutually independent random variables with the distribution . The process X(t) is clearly a Markov process whose state space is the set of all integers.

It is shown that a distribution with complete monotone derivative is geometrically infinitely divisible and that the class of distributions with complete monotone derivative is a proper subclass of the class of geometrically infinitely divisible distributions.
