Abstract

Let X be the mosaic generated by a stationary Poisson hyperplane process in ℝd. Under some mild conditions on the spherical directional distribution of (which are satisfied if the process is isotropic), we show that with probability one the set of cells (d-polytopes) of X has the following properties. The translates of the cells are dense in the space of convex bodies. Every combinatorial type of simple d-polytopes is realized infinitely often by the cells of X. A further result concerns the distribution of the typical cell.
