摘要：

For the discrete Weibull probability distribution we prove that it is only infinitely divisible if the shape parameter lies in the range 0 < beta <= 1. The proof is based on some results of Steutel and van Harn (2004). For this case we construct the corresponding compound Poisson distribution and thus the related Levy process.
