Abstract

This note introduces the generalized Laplace distribution having two scale parameters and one location parameter (for which the ordinary Laplace distribution is a special case). This distribution is then characterized by a constant regression of a certain polynomial statistic on the sample mean in the sense of such characterizations initiated by Laha and Lukacs (1960).
