Consider an interval of the real line (0, x), x > 0; and place in it a random subinterval S(x) defined by the random variables Xx
and Yx
, the position of the center of S(x) and the length of S(x). The set (0, x)– S(x) consists of two intervals of length δ and η. Let a > 0 be a fixed constant. If δ ≦ a, then a random interval S(δ) defined by Xδ, Yδ
is placed in the interval of length δ. If δ < a, the placement of the second interval is not made. The same is done for the interval of length η. Continue to place non-intersecting random subintervals in (0, x), and require that the lengths of all the random subintervals be ≦ a. The process terminates after a finite number of steps when all the segments of (0, x) uncovered by random subintervals are of length < a. At this stage, we say that (0, x) is saturated. Define N(a, x) as the number of random subintervals that have been placed when the process terminates. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of the moments of N(a, x), for large x.
