In this paper, we obtain some recurrence relationships for conditional expectations of nonadjacent order statistics and record values when the distribution function is absolutely continuous, and we prove that the distribution function is uniquely determined by the distribution of conditioned record values and by the expected values of these records. Further, different distributions are characterized by these relationships.
