Abstract
Let X1, X2, …, Xn be a random sample of size n from a population with probability density function f(x), x >0, and let X1,n < X2,n < … < Xn,n be the associated order statistics. A characterization of the exponential distribution is shown by considering the identical distribution of the random variables nX1,n and (n − i + 1)(X1,n −; Xi–1,n) for one i and one n with 2 ≦ i ≦ n.
