Description
Possible reasons for the uniqueness of the positive geometric law in the context of stability of random extremes are explored here culminating in a conjecture characterizing the geometric law. Our reasoning comes closer in justifying the geometric law in similar contexts discussed in Arnold et al. (1986) and Marshall & Olkin (1997) and also supplement their arguments.
