    Central limit theorems for the radial spanning tree
    (Oberwolfach : Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014) Schulte, Matthias; Thäle, Christoph
    Consider a homogeneous Poisson point process in a compact convex set in d- dimensional Euclidean space which has interior points and contains the origin. The radial spanning tree is constructed by connecting each point of the Poisson point process with its nearest neighbour that is closer to the origin. For increasing in- tensity of the underlying Poisson point process the paper provides expectation and variance asymptotics as well as central limit theorems with rates of convergence for a class of edge functionals including the total edge length.

    Bilinear coagulation equations
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2019) Heydecker, Daniel; Patterson, Robert I.A.
    We consider coagulation equations of Smoluchowski or Flory type where the total merge rate has a bilinear form π(y) · Aπ (x) for a vector of conserved quantities π, generalising the multiplicative kernel. For these kernels, a gelation transition occurs at a finite time tg ∈ (0,∞), which can be given exactly in terms of an eigenvalue problem in finite dimensions. We prove a hydrodynamic limit for a stochastic coagulant, including a corresponding phase transition for the largest particle, and exploit a coupling to random graphs to extend analysis of the limiting process beyond the gelation time.
