On order statistics from the Gompertz–Makeham distribution and the Lambert W function

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we show that the expected value of the minimum order statistic from the Gompertz-Makeham distribution can be expressed in closed form in terms of the incomplete gamma function. We also give a general formula for the moments of the minimum order statistic in...
