Abstract

In the present paper, we unify and extend various characterizations of exponential and geometric distributions, such as those based on order statistics, record values and the strong memoryless property to arrive at characterization results for the generalized Pareto distributions and their discrete versions. We introduce a new concept of extended neighbouring order statistics without restricting to distributions that are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure.
