Abstract
We give a new integral characterization of the Dirichlet process on a general phase space. To do so, we first prove a characterization of the nonsymmetric Beta distribution via size-biased sampling. Two applications are a new characterization of the Dirichlet distribution and a marked version of a classical characterization of the Poisson–Dirichlet distribution via invariance and independence properties.
