We consider the Voronoi tessellation based on a homogeneous Poisson point process in $\mathbf{R}^{d}$. For a geometric characteristic of the cells (e.g. the inradius, the circumradius, the volume), we investigate the point process of the…

We introduce a non-parametric density estimator deemed Radial Voronoi Density Estimator (RVDE). RVDE is grounded in the geometry of Voronoi tessellations and as such benefits from local geometric adaptiveness and broad convergence…

We present two developments for the numerical integration of a function over the Brillouin zone. First, we introduce a nonuniform grid, which we refer to as the Farey grid, that generalizes regular grids. Second, we introduce…
