Power function exponential distribution
$begingroup$
I am trying to find the power function for a test.
I know that the power function is calculated by $beta(0) = P_0(x in R)$ where $R$ is the rejection region. What I know about this test is that $X sim Exp(beta) \H_0: beta = beta_0 quad H_1: beta > beta_0 \ Y_n = min(X_1,..,X_n) quad Y sim Exp(frac{beta}{n})$
What I have tried until now, is that I think that $P_0(x in R) = P_0(Y_n > c_n) $ since in this scenario the null hypothesis is rejected if all values for $X$ are higher than $C_n$. However I am unsure how to apply the properties of the exponential distribution to $Y_n$ and $c_n$

I'm not saying it is wrong, but how do you conclude that the power function is $mathbb{P}_0(Y_n < c_n)$? There is no description of what kind of test.

@Siron I think I have specified in my question that $X_1,..,X_n sim Exp(beta)$ I concluded this because for this scenario $Y_n = min(X_1,..,X_n)$ thus I thought that .. although I don't have proof for it yet

Yes, that is the reason that I asked my question. Why do you think $mathbb{P}(Y_n > c_n)$? If this is indeed true then it is not hard to compute the power function.

Ok. Yes I gained more insight. For now I know that this is the region for which $H_0$ will be rejected. Because $H_0$ whill be rejected when the value for the test statistic of the hypothesis's distribution is smaller than the alpha level. So thus I should calculate this region using the information I know about this is distributed? But will I need to calculate test statistics of the exponential distribution? I know what the region means but I don"t get how to get further..

Based on your information I think the question has to be interpret as
Suppose $X_1,ldots,X_n$ are i.i.d exponentially distributed with an unknown parameter $beta$. Suppose we want to test $H_0: beta = beta_0$ versus $H_1: beta > beta_0$. Suppose the test is performed by rejecting $H_0$ when $Y = min{X_1,ldots,X_n}>c$. Compute the power function for this test.
Since $Y sim mbox{Exp}left(frac{beta}{n}right)$, we can easily compute the power function
$$mathbb{P}(Y_n > c) = 1 - mathbb{P}(Y_n < c) = 1- F_{Y_n}(c),$$
where $F_{Y_n}$ is the distribution function of an exponential distribution with parameter $beta/n$. Please correct me if my interpretation of the question is incorrect.

I'm not saying it is wrong, but how do you conclude that the power function is $mathbb{P}_0(Y_n < c_n)$? There is no description of what kind of test.
