In this paper a new variant of the Choquet-Deny theorem is obtained and used to prove a characterization of the uniform distribution based on spacings of generalized order statistics. This result extends two recent characterizations of the uniform distribution.
The connection between extreme values and record-low values is exploited to derive simply the limiting joint distribution of the r largest order statistics. The use of this distribution in the modelling of corrosion phenomena is considered, and the extrapolation of maxima in space and time is descri
