The Voronoi tessellation of a homogeneous Poisson point process in the lower half-plane gives rise to a family of vertical elongated cells in the upper half-plane. The set of edges of these cells is ruled by a Markovian branching mechanism…
Minimization diagrams encompass a large class of diagrams of interest in the literature, such as generalized Voronoi diagrams. We develop an abstract perturbation theory and perform a sensitivity analysis for functions depending on sets…
The purpose of this note is to clarify the effect of the finite size of spherical particles upon the characteristics of their spatial distribution through a random Poisson process (RPP). This information is of special interest when using…
Real complex networks are often characterized by spatial constraints such as the relative position and adjacency of nodes. The present work describes how Voronoi tessellations of the space where the network is embedded provide not only a…
We prove that by scaling nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic energies defined on Poisson random sets in the plane we obtain an isotropic perimeter energy with a surface tension characterised by an asymptotic formula. The result relies on…
We study the statistics of the Voronoi cell perimeter in large bi-pointed planar quadrangulations. Such maps have two marked vertices at a fixed given distance $2s$ and their Voronoi cell perimeter is simply the length of the frontier which…
We investigate Voronoi-like tessellations of bipartite quadrangulations on surfaces of arbitrary genus, by using a natural generalization of a bijection of Marcus and Schaeffer allowing to encode such structures into labeled maps with a…
A new approach to the generation of random sequences and two dimensional random patterns is proposed in this paper in which random sequences are generated by making use of either Delaunay triangulation or Voronoi diagrams drawn from random…
Voronoi tessellation, also known as Voronoi diagram, is an important computational geometry technique that has applications in various scientific disciplines. It involves dividing a given space into regions based on the proximity to a set…
The spatial cosmic matter distribution on scales of a few up to more than a hundred Megaparsec displays a salient and pervasive foamlike pattern. Voronoi tessellations are a versatile and flexible mathematical model for such weblike spatial…
Many methods for modelling spatial processes assume global smoothness properties; such assumptions are often violated in practice. We introduce a method for modelling spatial processes that display heterogeneity or contain discontinuities.…
Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The order-$k$ Voronoi diagram of $S$, $V_k(S)$, is a subdivision of $\mathbb{R}^d$ into cells whose points have the same $k$ nearest points of $S$. Sibson, in his seminal…
For the analysis of systems consisting of small, regular objects, the methods of mathematical morphology applied to images of these systems are well-suited. One of these methods is the use of Voronoi polygons. It was found that the Voronoi…
Consider the problem of partitioning an arbitrary metric space into pieces of diameter at most \Delta, such every pair of points is separated with relatively low probability. We propose a rate-based algorithm inspired by…
Let $p\_n$ be the probability for a planar Poisson-Voronoi cell to have exactly $n$ sides. We construct the asymptotic expansion of $\log p\_n$ up to terms that vanish as $n\to\infty$. We show that {\it two independent biased random walks}…
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…
We introduce two new methods to obtain reliable velocity field statistics from N-body simulations, or indeed from any general density and velocity fluctuation field sampled by discrete points. These methods, the {\it Voronoi tessellation…

We develop a set of heuristic arguments to explain several results on planar Poisson-Voronoi tessellations that were derived earlier at the cost of considerable mathematical effort. The results concern Voronoi cells having a large number n…
