In this paper, we establish some recurrence relations for single and product moments of generalized order statistics from pth order exponential distribution. Further the results are deduced for the recurrence relations of record values and ordinary order statistics and using a recurrence relation for single moments we obtain characterization of pth order exponential distribution.

Order statistics arising from exponentiated gamma (EG) distribution are considered. Closed from expressions for the single and double moments of order statistics are derived. Measures of skewness and kurtosis of the probability density function of the rth order statistic for different choices of r, n and /theta are presented. Recurrence relations between single and double moments of r...

The performance attributes of a broad class of randomised algorithms can be described by a recurrence relation of the form T(x) = a(x)+T(H(x)), where a is a function and H(x) is a random variable. For instance, T(x) may describe the running time of such an algorithm on a problem of size x. Then T(x) is a random variable, whose distribution depends on the distribution of H(x). To give high proba...

In this paper, we derived recurrence relations for joint moment generating functions of nonadjacent generalized order statistics (GOS) of random samples drawn from doubly truncated class of continuous distributions. Recurrence relations for joint moments of nonadjacent GOS (ordinary order statistics (OOS) and k-upper records (k-RVs) as special cases) are obtained. Single and product moment gene...
