For a stationary point process X of convex particles in ℝd the projected thick section process X(L) on a q-dimensional linear subspace L is considered. Formulae connecting geometric functionals, e.g. the quermass densities of X and X(L), are presented. They generalize the classical results of Miles (1976) and Davy (1976) which hold only in the isotropic case.

Some relationships are derived between the asynchronous and partially synchronous counting and interval processes associated with a multivariate stationary point process. A few examples are given to illustrate some of these relationships.

A bivariate point process consisting of an original stationary point process and its random translation is considered. Westcott's method is applied to show that if the original point process is ergodic then the bivariate point process is also ergodic. This result is applied to an identification problem of the displacement distribution. It is shown that if the spectrum of the original process is the real line then the displacement distribution is identifiable from almost every sample realisation of the bivariate process.

Various types of time and event sampling of a stationary and orderly bivariate point process are considered. Fundamental relations between inter-event intervals and the event counting process are derived. Relations between first forward recurrence times and their moments for different types of sampling are obtained.

The simple stationarity of a previously derived equilibrium process of responses in a renewal inhibited stationary point process is established by deriving the joint distribution of the number of responses in contiguous intervals in the process. For a renewal inhibited Poisson process the variancetime function of the process is obtained; the distribution of an arbitrary between-response interval and the synchronous counting distribution are also derived following analytic justification of the required results. These results strengthen earlier results in the theory of stationary point processes. Three other point processes arising from the interaction are briefly discussed.

Starting with a stationary point process on the line with points one unit apart, simultaneously replace each point by a point located uniformly between the original point and its right-hand neighbor. Iterating this transformation, we obtain convergence to a limiting point process, which we are able to identify. The example of the uniform distribution is for purposes of illustration only; in fact, convergence is obtained for almost any distribution on [0, 1]. In the more general setting, we prove the limiting distribution is invariant under the above transformation, and that for each such transformation, a large class of initial processes leads to the same invariant distribution. We also examine the covariance of the limiting sequence of interval lengths. Finally, we identify those invariant distributions with independent interval lengths, and the transformations from which they arise.

Many medical and biological problems require to extract information from microscopical images. Boolean models have been extensively used to analyze binary images of random clumps in many scientific fields. In this paper, a particular type of Boolean model with an underlying non-stationary point process is considered. The intensity of the underlying point process is formulated as a fixed function of the distance to a region of interest. A method to estimate the parameters of this Boolean model is introduced, and its performance is checked in two different settings. Firstly, a comparative study with other existent methods is done using simulated data. Secondly, the method is applied to analyze the longleaf data set, which is a very popular data set in the context of point processes included in the R package spatstat. Obtained results show that the new method provides as accurate estimates as those obtained with more complex methods developed for the general case. Finally, to illustrate the application of this model and this method, a particular type of phytopathological images are analyzed. These images show callose depositions in leaves of Arabidopsis plants. The analysis of callose depositions, is very popular in the phytopathological literature to quantify activity of plant immunity.
