Necessary And Sufficient

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.

Stochastic Point Processes

The structure of the probability space associated with a general point process, when regarded as a counting process, is reviewed using the coincidence formalism. The rest of the paper is devoted to the class of regular point processes for which all coincidence probabilities admit densities. It is shown that their distribution is completely specified by the system of coincidence densities. The specification formalism is stressed for ‘completely’ regular point processes. A construction theorem gives a characterization of the system of coincidence densities of such a process. It permits the study of most models of point processes. New results on the photon process, a particular type of conditioned Poisson process, are derived. New examples are exhibited, including the Gauss-Poisson process and the ‘fermion’ process that is suitable whenever the points are repulsive.

Abstract Under mild assumptions the equivalence of the mixed Poisson process with mixing parameter a real-valued random variable to the one with mixing probability distribution as well as to the mixed Poisson process in the sense of Huang is obtained, and a characterization of each one of the above mixed Poisson processes in terms of disintegrations is provided. Moreover, some examples of “canonical” probability spaces admitting counting processes satisfying the equivalence of all above statements are given. Finally, it is shown that our assumptions for the characterization of mixed Poisson processes in terms of disintegrations cannot be omitted.

It has been recently proved that if N, X 1, X 2, … are non-constant mutually independent random variables with X 1,X 2, … identically distributed and N non-negative and integer-valued, then the independence of and implies that X 1 is Bernoulli and N is Poisson. A well-known theorem in point process theory due to Fichtner characterizes a Poisson process in terms of a sum of independent thinnings. In the present article, simultaneous generalizations of both of these results are provided, including a joint characterization of the multinomial distribution and the Poisson process.

Martingale Characterization

It is shown that an elementary pure birth process is a mixed Poisson process iff the sequence of post-jump intensities forms a martingale with respect to the σ -fields generated by the jump times of the process. In this case, the post-jump intensities converge almost surely to the mixing random variable of the process.

We study exponential families within the class of counting processes and show that a mixed Poisson process belongs to an exponential family if and only if it is either a Poisson process or has a gamma structure distribution. This property can be expressed via exponential martingales.
