| Popis: | For a compact and convex window, Mecke described a process of tessellations which arise from cell divisions in discrete time. At each time step, one of the existing cells is selected according to an equally-likely law. Independently, a line is thrown onto the window. If the line hits the selected cell the cell is divided. If the line does not hit the selected cell nothing happens in that time step. With a geometric distribution whose parameter depends on the time, Mecke transformed his construction into a continuous-time model. He put forward two conjectures in which he assumed this continuous-time model to have certain properties with respect to their iteration. These conjectures lead to a third conjecture which states the equivalence of the construction of STIT tessellations and Mecke's construction under some homogeneity conditions. In the present paper, the first two conjectures are proven. A key tool to do that is a property of a continuous-time version of the equally-likely model classified by Cowan. Comment: 11 pages |
