Abstract: In this paper, we propose a new extension of cumulative entropy based on kth lower record values. We also consider a dynamic version of this new cumulative entropy using the past lifetime. For these concepts, we study some properties and characterization results under some assumptions. Finally, we provide some examples of application of the results.
