In this paper, we characterize some distributions using the moments of k-records associated with a sequence of i.i.d continuous random variables. The k-records are special cases of the (upper) generalized order statistics introduced by Kamps (1995). The basic idea comes from the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.
