On the stability of a characterization by the lack of memory property
An useful and interesting characterization of the Weibull distribution is its lack of memory (of order α) property, i.e., P(X ≥ (xα + yα)1/α|X ≥ y) = P(X ≥ x) for all x, y ≥ 0. The characterization holds even in the case when it is required to fulfil this relation not on the entire semi-axis {y|y...
