Kullback-Leibler Information in View of an Extended Version of κ-Records

Abstract
This paper introduces an extended version of $\small{{\kappa}}$-records. Kullback-Leibler (K-L) information between two generalized distributions arising from $\small{{\kappa}}$-records is derived; subsequently, it is shown that K-L information does not depend on the baseline distribution. The behavior of K-L information for order statistics and $\small{{\kappa}}$-records, is studied. The exact expressions for K-L information between distributions of order statistics and upper (lower) $\small{{\kappa}}$-records are obtained and some special cases are provided.
