Abstract

Unimodality and strong unimodality of the distribution of ascendingly ordered random variables have been extensively studied in the literature, whereas these properties have not received much attention in the case of descendingly ordered random variates. In this paper, we show that log concavity of the reversed hazard rate implies that of the density function. Using this fundamental result, we establish some convexity properties of such random variables. To do this, we first provide a counterexample showing that a claim of Basak & Basak [7] about the lower record values is not valid. Then, we provide conditions under which unimodality properties of the distribution of lower k-record values would hold. Finally, some extensions to dual generalized order statistics in both univariate and multivariate cases are discussed.
