We provide two characterizations of Pareto distribution based on ratios of upper records and properties of hazard rate.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCharacterizationPareto distributionRecord ValuesHazard RateA note on the characterization of pareto distribution by the hazard rate of upper record valuesArticle2944474522-s2.0-84884541782Q3WOS:000328500300007Q4
