Relations for product moments and covariances of \(k\)th records from discrete distributions (Q682049): Difference between revisions

The author introduces some recurrence relations for the product moments of strong, ordinary and weak \(k\)th records arising from discrete distributions. The obtained results are used for the derivation of the recurrence relations for covariances between \(k\)th records. It is shown that the geometric distribution leads to simple expressions for these relations. Also, the correlation coefficients of geometric \(k\)th records are presented.
