Abstract
For a class of distributions which are invariant under a group of transformations, we propose an estimator of an estimable parameter. The estimator, which we call the invariant U-statistic, is the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator of the corresponding estimable parameter for the class of all continuous distributions which are invariant under the group of transformations.
