The Lévy-Khinchine Formula
Given the characterization of linear functionals that satisfy the minimum principle and are quasi-local, it is quite easy to derive the Lévy-Khinchine formula.
Let µ ∈ M1 (RN ) be infinitely devisable in the sence that, for each n ≥ 1, there
is a µ n1 ∈ M1 (RN ) such that µ = µ∗n
1 . To prove that there is a Lévy system
n
(m, C, M ) such that µ̂ = e` where
Z `(ξ) = i(m, ξ)RN − 12 (ξ, Cξ)RN +
ei(ξ,y)RN − 1 − i1B(0,1) (y)(ξ, y)RN M (dy),
RN
it suffices to show that
(i) µ̂ never vanishes
(ii) If ` ∈ C(RN ; C) is determined by `(0) = 1 and µ̂ = e` , then |`(ξ)| ≤
C 1 + |ξ|2 for some C < ∞.
Indeed, (i) guarantees that the ` described in (ii) exists and is unique. Further,
because µ̂ = (µcn1 )n , (i) guarantees that µcn1 never vanishes, and clearly n1 ` is the
`1
unique choice of ` n1 ∈ C(RN ; C) such that ` n1 (0) = 0 and µcn1 = e n . Hence,
using (ii) and Parseval’s Identity, one sees, that

for S (RN ; C). Obviously A satisfies the minimum principle. In addition, if

To verify that (i) and (ii) hold, begin by observing that

and therefore that, for any e ∈ SN −1 ,

for T > 0, then, s > 0 and, for any
sup |1 − µ̂(ξ)| ≥ s(rR)µ {y : |(e, y)RN | ≥ R} .
(*)
|ξ|≤r
Now choose r > 0 so that sup|ξ|≤r |1 − µ̂(ξ)| ≤ 12 . Then, since |1 − z| ≤
| log z| ≤ 2|1 − z|, |`(ξ)| ≤ 1, and so

|1 − µcn1 (ξ)| = 1 − e n ≤

for |ξ| ≤ r. Applying (*) with µ replaced by µ n1 and using this estimate, we
have that, for any R > 0,

n
which, because
|1 − µcn1 (ρe)| ≤ ρR + 2µ n1 {y : |(e, y)RN | ≥ R} ,
means that
sup |1 − µcn1 (ξ)| ≤ ρR +
|ξ|≤ρ
In particularly, by taking R =

we get

From (**), it is clear that, for each ρ > 0, there is an n such that |µcn1 (ξ)| ≥ 12 and
therefore |µ̂(ξ)| ≥ 2−n for |ξ| ≤ ρ, and this completes the proof of (i). Finally,
from (**), |`(ξ)| ≤ n if |ξ| ≤ ρ and n ≥ 8r . Since there is an such that

|`(ξ)| ≤ 1 +
