In this paper it is proved that, for a natural exponential family, the fact that a fixed quantile is equal to the natural parameter imples that the family is gaussian. Analogously if a fixed quantile is equal to the reciprocal of minus the natural parameter implies that the family is Gamma.

Abstract

In this paper it is proved that, for a natural exponential family, the fact that a fixed quantile is equal to the natural parameter imples that the family is gaussian. Analogously if a fixed quantile is equal to the reciprocal of minus the natural parameter implies that the family is Gamma.
