Spherical contact distances in Neyman-Scott process of regular clusters
Abstract
The Neyman—Scott cluster process of regular 2k-tuples — vertices of a k—cube of random edge length in Rd, k=0,…,d is considered. The attention is focused on the properties of the spherical contact distribution function H(l). It is shown that the corresponding probability density function h(l) is in certain sense intermediate between hp(l) of the parent process and hcl(l) of the Poisson point process of the daughter process intensity λcl. Particular cases of point pairs and 2d-tuples of constant size in R1, R2, R3 as well as the effect of the edge length distribution are treated in detail and the results are presented in a graphical form.
