Straight Lines

The tessellation studied here is motivated by some stereological applications of a new expression for the motion invariant density of straight lines in R3. The term 'pivotal' stems from the fact that the tessellation is constructed within a plane which is isotropic through a fixed, 'pivotal' origin. Consider either a stationary point process, or a stationary random lattice of points in that plane. Through each point event draw a straight line which is perpendicular to the axis determined by the origin and the point event. The union of all such lines (called p-lines) constitutes the mentioned tessellation. We concentrate on the pivotal tessellation based on a stationary and isotropic planar Poisson point process; we show that this tessellation is not stationary.

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.

Class Of Estimators

The second-moment structure of an estimator V*(t) of the variance-time curve V(t) of a weakly stationary point process is obtained in the case where the process is Poisson. This result is used to establish the weak convergence of a class of estimators of the form Tβ (V*(tTα ) – V(tTα )), 0 < α < 1, to a non-stationary Gaussian process. Similar results are shown to hold when α = 0 and in the case where V(tTα ) is replaced by a suitable estimator.

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.

Interval Lengths

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.
