Abstract

In this paper, we derive some recurrence relations satisfied by single and product moments of lower generalized order statistics arising from inverse p^th order exponential distribution. Further, we have obtained a characterization of inverse p^th order exponential distribution based on the recurrence relation for single moments of lower generalized order statistics.
