Couplings for determinantal point processes and their reduced Palm distributions with a view to quantifying repulsiveness

Probability 2020-10-06 v6

Abstract

For a determinantal point process XX with a kernel KK whose spectrum is strictly less than one, Andr{\'e} Goldman has established a coupling to its reduced Palm process XuX^u at a point uu with K(u,u)>0K(u,u)>0 so that almost surely XuX^u is obtained by removing a finite number of points from XX. We sharpen this result, assuming weaker conditions and establishing that XuX^u can be obtained by removing at most one point from XX, where we specify the distribution of the difference ξu:=XXu\xi_u:=X\setminus X^u. This is used for discussing the degree of repulsiveness in DPPs in terms of ξu\xi_u, including Ginibre point processes and other specific parametric models for DPPs.
