Abstract
This article considers a discrete distribution that arises as the dominant solution of a linear difference equation. Basic properties and various chance mechanisms that lead to this distribution are given. In particular, its formulation as a weighted distribution and a mixed Poisson process are proposed. Parameter estimation by (a) using a combination of observed frequencies and moments and (b) maximum likelihood are examined. An example of goodness of fit is considered.
