Characterization of the Exponential Distribution Using Lower Moments of Order Statistics,
Abstract
Several characterizations of the exponential distribution in terms of the variances and the covariances of order statistics in a random sample of size n (n > or =2) are made. Analogous characterizations hold for the positive exponential distribution.
