Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to present two new results concerning the characterization of likelihood ratio and reversed hazard rate orders between largest order statistics from two sets of independent heterogeneous and homogeneous exponentiated generalized gamma distributed random variables. These characterization results complete and strengthen some previous ones in the literature.
