A note on the characterizations of Pareto distribution by upper record values

Mohammad Ahsanullah and Mohammad Shakil

Abstract

Many researchers have studied the characterizations of probability distributions based on record values. It appears from literature that not much attention has been paid to the characterizations of the Pareto distribution. In this note, some new results on the characterizations of the Pareto distribution by upper record values have been established.

Keywords: characterization, Pareto distribution, record values
