Abstract
We study the behaviour of convolution powers of probability measures $\mu $ on $\mathbb Z$ such that $(\mu (n))_{n\in \mathbb N}$ is completely monotone or such that $\mu $ is centred with a second moment. In particular we exhibit many new examples of probability measures on $\mathbb Z$ having the so-called Ritt property and whose convolution powers satisfy weak type maximal inequalities in $\ell ^1(\mathbb Z)$.
