Abstract
A characterization of Pareto type III distribution is obtained. As a generalization of the Pareto distribution, a new class of distributions called the generalized Pareto distributions is introduced and a characterization of this class is obtained. We introduce a new class of autoregressive models with semi-Pareto marginals and study its properties. As a generalization of semi-Pareto distribution, we introduce semi-Burr distribution and develop a random coefficient autoregressive model with semi-Burr marginal distributions.
