Distribution of Interesting Order Statistics

Prior results (from a mathematics competition) show that the expected value of the minimum element in a random sample of size r from {1,2,3,...,n} is (n+1) / (r+1) In my research, I've calculated the more complicated value of the variance of this quantity using standard and novel techniques from mathematical statistics. I will also present results obtained between now and April 24th and indicate directions for further research.
