In this article we give some characterizations of Poisson processes, the model which we consider is inspired by Kimeldorf and Thall (1983) and we generalize the results of Chandramohan and Liang (1985). More precisely, we consider an arbitrarily delayed renewal process, at each arrival time we allow the number of arrivals to be i.i.d. random variables, also the mass of each unit atom can be split into k new atoms with the ith new atom assigned to the process Di, i = 1, ···, k. We shall show that the existence of a pair of uncorrelated processes Di, Dj, i ≠ j, implies the renewal process is Poisson. Some other related characterization results are also obtained.

Theorem: A necessary and sufficient condition for the superposition of two ordinary renewal processes to again be a renewal process is that they be Poisson processes.A complete proof of this theorem is given; also it is shown how the theorem follows from the corresponding one for the superposition of two stationary renewal processes.

In a homogeneous Poisson process in R d , consider an arbitrary point X and let Y be its kth nearest neighbour. Denote by Rk the rank of X in the proximity order defined by Y, i.e., Rk = j if X is the jth nearest neighbour to Y. A representation for Rk in terms of a sum of independent random variables is obtained, and the limiting distribution of Rk, as k →∞, is shown to be normal. This result generalizes to mixtures of Poisson processes.

In this paper we shall investigate point processes generated by random variables of the form 〈gi (Ti ]), i=± 1, ± 2, … 〉, where 〈Ti, i= ± 1, … 〉 is the set of arrival times from a (not necessarily homogeneous) Poisson process or mixture of Poisson processes, and 〈gi, i = ± 1, … 〉 is an independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.) or interchangeable sequence of random functions, independent of 〈Ti 〉.

A sequence of independent Bernoulli random variables with success probabilities a / (a + b + k − 1), k = 1, 2, 3, …, is embedded in a marked Poisson process with intensity 1. Using this, conditional Poisson limits follow for counts of failure strings.

Abstract Weconsider a PSI-process, that is a sequence of random variables (&), i = 0.1,…, which is subordinated by a continuous-time non-decreasing integer-valued process N(t): <K0 = ÇN(ty Our main example is when /V(t) itself is obtained as a subordination of the standard Poisson process 77(s) by a non-decreasing Lévy process S(t): N(t) = 77(S(t)).The values (&)one interprets as random claims, while their accumulated intensity S(t) is itself random. We show that in this case the process 7V(t) is a compound Poisson process of the stuttering type and its rate depends just on the value of theLaplace exponent of S(t) at 1. Under the assumption that the driven sequence (&) consists of i.i.d. random variables with finite variance we calculate a correlation function of the constructed PSI-process. Finally, we show that properly rescaled sums of such processes converge to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process in the Skorokhod space. We suppose that the results stated in the paper mightbe interesting for theorists and practitioners in insurance, in particular, for solution of reinsurance tasks.

In a homogeneous Poisson process in Rd, consider an arbitrary point X and let Y be its kth nearest neighbour. Denote by Rk the rank of X in the proximity order defined by Y, i.e., Rk = j if X is the jth nearest neighbour to Y. A representation for Rk in terms of a sum of independent random variables is obtained, and the limiting distribution of Rk, as k →∞, is shown to be normal.
