On a new system of discrete distributions and characterizations of several discrete distributions by equality of distributions (Q2638683)

This paper characterizes the Waring and discrete uniform distributions among others via certain properties involving weighted distributions and linear regression. \{Theorem 3.2 of the paper is false as the X with distribution \(W(\mu- 1,\mu+1)\) has \(E(X^ 2)=\infty\) contradicting the assumption that \(E(X^ 2)<\infty\).\}
