Conditional expected value of order statistic












0












$begingroup$


Let $theta_1,dots,theta_N$ be a collection of independent RVs, ditributed uniformly on $[0,1]$. Further let $theta^{(r)}$ be the $r$th order statistic where
$theta^{(1)}leqdots theta^{(r)}leqdots theta^{(N)}$.



Is the following reasoning correct?



$mathbb{E}[theta_i vert theta_igeq theta^{(m)}]
= mathbb{P}(theta_i =theta^{(m)})mathbb{E}[theta_i vert theta_i=theta^{(m)}]
+ dots
+mathbb{P}(theta_i =theta^{(N)})mathbb{E}[theta_i vert theta_i=theta^{(N)}]\
=frac{1}{N}sum_{l=m}^{N}mathbb{E}[theta^{(l)}]
=frac{1}{N}sum_{l=m}^{N}frac{l}{N+1}$



Thanks in advance!
