On a characterization of the uniform distribution by generalized order statistics

In this paper a new variant of the Choquet–Deny theorem is obtained and used to prove a characterization of the uniform distribution based on spacings of generalized order statistics. This result extends two recent characterizations of the uniform distribution.
