Relations for product moments and covariances of <Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>th records from discrete distributions

The aim of this paper is to establish recurrence relations satisfied by product moments and covariances of kth records arising from discrete distributions. They will be evaluated for geometric underlying distribution. Then we use these results to obtain formulas for correlation coefficients of geometric kth records. We consider all three known types of kth records: strong, ordinary, and weak.
