Degrees in the $\beta$- and $\beta'$-Delaunay graphs
Abstract
We investigate the typical cells and of - and -Voronoi tessellations in , establishing a Complementary Theorem which entails: 1) a gamma distribution of the -content (a suitable homogeneous functional) of the typical cell with -facets; 2) the independence of this -content with the shape of the cell; 3) a practical integral representation of the distribution of . We exploit the latter to derive bounds on the distribution of the facet numbers. Using duality, we get bounds on the typical degree distributions of - and -Delaunay triangulations. For -Delaunay, the resulting exponential lower bound seems to be the first of its kind for random spatial graphs arising as the skeletons of random tessellations. For -Delaunay, matching super-exponential bounds allow us to show concentration of the maximal degree in a growing window to only a finite number of deterministic values (in particular, only two values for ).
