Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1974, vol. 4, issue 1, 106-113

Abstract: Shanbag gave a characterization of the exponential and geometric distribution in terms of conditional expectations. Recently, Kotlarski generalized his method to obtain some properties of univariate probability distributions through conditional expectations. A property of bivariate distributions is given here generalizing Kotlarski's result in the univariate case.
