In the article, we prove that the function x ? (1-x)pK(?x) is logarithmically concave on (0,1) if and only if p ? 7/32, the function x ? K(?x)/log(1+4/?1-x) is convex on (0,1) and the function x ? d2/dx2 [K(?x)- log (1+4/?1-x) is absolutely monotonic on (0,1), where K(x) = ??/20 (1-x2 sin2t)-1/2 dt (0 < x < 1) is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind.

Using Bernstein's theorem concerning absolutely monotonic functions, Rao and Rubin (1964) have established a characterization of the Poisson distribution. The present note arrives at an extended version of this result using a technique existing in the renewal theory. A variant of a related result due to Srivastava and Srivastava (1970) and an extension of the result of Talwalker (1970) are also presented.
