Abstract
It is shown that the joint distribution function of several order statistics can be expressed in terms of the distribution functions of the maximum (or the minimum) order statistics of suitable subsamples. The result is used to derive explicit expressions for the expectations of functions of order statistics from certain families of distributions which include the exponential distribution and the power function distribution. The results generalize earlier work by the authors for a single order statistic.
