Aboav's law is a quantitative expression of the empirical fact that in planar cellular structures many-sided cells tend to have few-sided neighbors. This law is nonetheless violated in the most widely used model system, {\it viz.} the…

We consider the three-dimensional Poisson-Voronoi tessellation and study the average facedness m_n of a cell known to neighbor an n-faced cell. Whereas Aboav's law states that m_n=A+B/n, theoretical arguments indicate an asymptotic…

We achieve a detailed understanding of the $n$-sided planar Poisson-Voronoi cell in the limit of large $n$. Let ${p}\_n$ be the probability for a cell to have $n$ sides. We construct the asymptotic expansion of $\log {p}\_n$ up to terms…

We consider the d-dimensional Poisson-Voronoi tessellation and investigate the applicability of heuristic methods developed recently for two dimensions. Let p_n(d) be the probability that a cell have n neighbors (be `n-faced') and m_n(d)…

By a new Monte Carlo algorithm we evaluate the sidedness probability p_n of a planar Poisson-Voronoi cell in the range 3 \leq n \leq 1600. The algorithm is developed on the basis of earlier theoretical work; it exploits, in particular, the…

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 the combinatorial complexity of geodesic Voronoi diagrams on polyhedral terrains using a probabilistic analysis. Aronov etal [ABT08] prove that, if one makes certain realistic input assumptions on the terrain, this complexity…

We consider the Voronoi diagram generated by $n$ i.i.d. $\mathbb{R}^{d}$-valued random variables with an arbitrary underlying probability density function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, and analyse the asymptotic behaviours of certain geometric…

Motivated by recent new Monte Carlo data we investigate a heuristic asymptotic theory that applies to n-faced 3D Poisson-Voronoi cells in the limit of large n. We show how this theory may be extended to n-edged cell faces. It predicts the…

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…

We consider the 3D Poisson-Voronoi tessellation. We investigate the joint probability distribution pi_n(L) for an arbitrarily selected cell face to be n-edged and for the distance between the seeds of its adjacent cells to be equal to 2L.…

Voronoi cells of varieties encode many features of their metric geometry. We prove that each Voronoi or Delaunay cell of a plane curve appears as the limit of a sequence of cells obtained from point samples of the curve. We use this result…

For every integer $n\geq 1$, we consider a random planar map $\mathcal{M}_n$ which is uniformly distributed over the class of all rooted bipartite planar maps with $n$ edges. We prove that the vertex set of $\mathcal{M}_n$ equipped with the…

Let $p_n^G$ be the probability for a planar Poisson-Voronoi cell to be $n$-sided {\it and\,} have only Gabriel neighbors. Using an exact coordinate transformation followed by scaling arguments and a mean-field type calculation, we obtain…

Voronoi tessellations of scale-invariant fractal sets are characterized by topological and metrical properties that are significantly different from those of natural cellular structures. As an example we analyze Voronoi diagrams of…

Let P_{n,m} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs on {1,2,..., n} with exactly m(n) edges. We use counting arguments to investigate the probability that P_{n,m} will contain given components and…

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…

We utilize total-internal reflection to isolate the two-dimensional `surface foam' formed at the planar boundary of a three-dimensional sample. The resulting images of surface Plateau borders are consistent with Plateau's laws for a truly…

This is the fourth in a series of articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. In this…

We study a configuration model on bipartite planar maps in which, given $n$ even integers, one samples a planar map with $n$ faces uniformly at random with these face degrees. We prove that when suitably rescaled, such maps always admit…
