Identically distributed random vectors on locally compact Abelian groups

Abstract

L. Klebanov proved the following theorem. Let $\xi_1, \dots, \xi_n$ be independent random variables. Consider linear forms $L_1=a_1\xi_1+\cdots+a_n\xi_n,$ $L_2=b_1\xi_1+\cdots+b_n\xi_n,$ $L_3=c_1\xi_1+\cdots+c_n\xi_n,$ $L_4=d_1\xi_1+\cdots+d_n\xi_n,$ where the coefficients $a_j, b_j, c_j, d_j$ are real numbers. If the random vectors $(L_1,L_2)$ and $(L_3,L_4)$ are identically distributed, then all $\xi_i$ for which $a_id_j-b_ic_j\neq 0$ for all $j=\overline{1,n}$ are Gaussian random variables. The present article is devoted to an analog of the Klebanov theorem in the case when random variables take values in a locally compact Abelian group and the coefficients of the linear forms are integers.
