Abstract
We deal with compound geometric sums of independent positive random variables and study the moment problem for the distributions of such sums (the Stieltjes moment problem). We find conditions under which the distributions are uniquely determined by their moments. We also treat related topics, including the Hamburger moment problem involving random variables on the whole real line. Some conjectures are outlined.
