Laplace transforms and the renewal equation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
Vinogradov (1973) used the Laplace transform to characterize the IFR class of life distributions and later Block and Savits (1980) extended the characterization to the main reliability classes. Here we use the same transform again to characterize the continuous time renewal equation and some properties of its solution.
