Bernstein Functions : : Theory and Applications / / René L. Schilling, Renming Song, Zoran Vondracek.

Bernstein functions appear in various fields of mathematics, e.g. probability theory, potential theory, operator theory, functional analysis and complex analysis – often with different definitions and under different names. Among the synonyms are `Laplace exponent' instead of Bernstein function...
