Spatially homogeneous random tessellations that are stable under iteration (nesting) in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space are considered, so-called STIT tessellations. They arise as outcome of a spatio-temporal process of subsequent cell…
For a class of cell division processes, generating tessellations of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, spatial consistency is investigated. This addresses the problem whether the distribution of these tessellations, restricted to a bounded…

This paper deals with iteration stable (STIT) tessellations, and, more generally, with a certain class of tessellations that are infinitely divisible with respect to iteration. They form a new, rich and flexible class of spatio-temporal…
A new class of random spatial tessellations is introduced -- the so-called column tessellations of three-dimensional space. The construction is based on a stationary planar tessellation. Each cell of the spatial tessellation is a prism…
The intent of this paper is to describe the large scale asymptotic geometry of iteration stable (STIT) tessellations in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which form a rather new, rich and flexible class of random tessellations considered in stochastic…

The lower-dimensional maximal polytopes associated with an iteration stable (STIT) tessellation in $\RR^d$ are considered. They arise in the spatio-temporal construction process of such a tessellation as intersections of $(d-1)$-dimensional…
A random recursive cell splitting scheme of the $2$-dimensional unit sphere is considered, which is the spherical analogue of the STIT tessellation process from Euclidean stochastic geometry. First-order moments are computed for a large…
Processes of random tessellations of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$, are considered which are generated by subsequent division of their cells. Such processes are characterized by the laws of the life times of the cells until…
Random tessellations are a prominent class of models in stochastic geometry. In this chapter, we give an overview of mechanisms that have been used to formulate random tessellation models. First, the notion of a random tessellation and…
A new and rather broad class of stationary (i.e. stochastically translation invariant) random tessellations of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space is introduced, which are called shape-driven nested Markov tessellations. Locally, these…
The stable under iterated tessellation (STIT) process is a stochastic process that produces a recursive partition of space with cut directions drawn independently from a distribution over the sphere. The case of random axis-aligned cuts is…
We consider homogeneous STIT tessellations Y in the \ell-dimensional Euclidean space and show the triviality of the tail \sigma-algebra. This is a sharpening of the mixing result by Lachi\`eze-Rey.
Stationary Poisson processes of lines in the plane are studied whose directional distributions are concentrated on $k \ge 3$ equally spread directions. The random lines of such processes decompose the plane into a collection of random…
A branching random tessellation (BRT) is a stochastic process that transforms a coarse initial tessellation of $\mathbb{R}^d$ into a finer tessellation by means of random cell divisions in continuous time. This concept generalises the…
In this paper we consider a random partition of the plane into cells, the partition being based on the nodes and links of a {\it random planar geometric graph}. The resulting structure generalises the \emph{random \tes}\ hitherto studied in…
The so-called STIT tessellations form the class of homogeneous (spatially stationary) tessellations of $\mathbb{R}^d$ which are stable under the nesting/iteration operation. In this paper, we establish the strong mixing property for these…
A random planar quadrangulation process is introduced as an approximation for certain cellular automata in terms of random growth of rays from a given set of points. This model turns out to be a particular (rectangular) case of the…
