Abstract

Conditions are obtained, under which from the constancy of the regression of a polynomial statistic of independent random variables on a sample mean there follows that the characteristic functions of the considered random variables are entire and of finite order. There are given also conditions on a polynomial statistic that are sufficient for the characterization of a normal distribution by the property of the constancy of the regression of this statistic on a sample mean.
