This paper considers sets of points from a Poisson process in the plane, chosen to be close together, and their properties. In particular, the perimeter of the convex hull of such a point set is investigated. A number of different models for the selection of such points are considered, including a simple nearest-neighbour model. Extensions to marked processes and applications to modelling animal territories are discussed.
This paper presents the form of some characteristics of the Voronoi tessellation which is generated by a stationary Poisson process in . Expressions are given for the spherical and linear contact distribution functions. These formulae lead to numerically tractable double-integral formulae for chord length probability density functions.
Consider two convex bodies K, K′ in Euclidean space En and paint subsets β, β′ on the boundaries of K and K′. Now assume that K′ undergoes random motion in such a way that it touches K.
