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…
Random tessellations of the space represent a class of prototype models of heterogeneous media, which are central in several applications in physics, engineering and life sciences. In this work, we investigate the statistical properties of…
In this paper, we consider a regular tessellation of the Euclidean plane and the sequence of its geometric scalings by negative powers of a fixed integer. We generate iteratively random sets as the union of adjacent tiles from these…
We investigate how many hyperplanes with independent standard Gaussian directions one needs to produce a $\delta$-uniform tessellation of a subset $S$ of the Euclidean sphere, meaning that for any pair of points in $S$ the fraction of…
Facets of the convex hull of $n$ independent random vectors chosen uniformly at random from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are studied. A particular focus is given on the height of the facets as well as the expected number of facets as…
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…
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…
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…
In this work we study a class of random convex sets that "interpolate" between polytopes and zonotopes. These sets arise from considering a $q^{th}$-moment ($q\geq 1$) of an average of order statistics of $1$-dimensional marginals of a…
We present a model of a random field on a topological space $M$ that unifies well-known models such as the Poisson hyperplane tessellation model, the random token model, and the dead leaves model. In addition to generalizing these submodels…
A tessellation of the plane is face-homogeneous if for some integer $k\geq3$ there exists a cyclic sequence $\sigma=[p_0,p_1,\ldots,p_{k-1}]$ of integers $\geq3$ such that, for every face $f$ of the tessellation, the valences of the…
Up to isomorphism there are six fixed-point free crystallographic groups in Euclidean Space generated by twists (screw motions). In each case, an orientable 3-manifold is obtained as the quotient of E3 by such a group. The cubic…
This work presents the tessellations and polytopes from the perspective of both n-dimensional geometry and abstract symmetry groups. It starts with a brief introduction to the terminology and a short motivation. In the first part, it…
This technical note analyzes the properties of a random sequence of prolate hyperspheroids with common foci. Each prolate hyperspheroid in the sequence is defined by a sample drawn randomly from the previous volume such that the sample lies…
Identifying parallel sides of a collection of Euclidean polygons yields a flat surface with cone points of angles multiples of 2 pi, naturally a compact Riemann surface but also an algebraic curve, and a hyperbolic surface. In general two…
We consider regular tessellations of the plane as infinite graphs in which $q$ edges and $q$ faces meet at each vertex, and in which $p$ edges and $p$ vertices surround each face. For $1/p + 1/q = 1/2$, these are tilings of the Euclidean…
Three-dimensional random tessellations that are stable under iteration (STIT tessellations) are considered. They arise as a result of subsequent cell division, which implies that their cells are not face-to-face. The edges of the…
This paper is devoted to the study of tessellations of the hyperbolic plane, especially the ones associated to hyperbolic triangle groups $\Delta(l,m,n)$. We give a full description of the cone types of these graphs and show that their…
The class of traveling wave solutions of the sine-Gordon equation is known to be in 1-1 correspondence with the class of (necessarily singular) pseudospherical surfaces in Euclidean space with screw-motion symmetry: the pseudospherical…
The symmetric convex hull of random points that are independent and distributed according to the cone probability measure on the $\ell_p$-unit sphere of $\mathbb R^n$ for some $1\leq p < \infty$ is considered. We prove that these random…
