Generalizing the zero cell of such a process, we fix a convex body $K$ and consider the intersection of all closed halfspaces bounded by hyperplanes of the process and containing $K$. We study how well these random polytopes approximate $K$ (measured by the Hausdorff distance) if the intensity increases, and how this approximation depends on the directional distribution in relation to properties of $K$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-12-16T15:02:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60D05" ], "keywords": [ "poisson hyperplane processes", "random polytopes", "approximation properties", "stationary poisson hyperplane process", "directional distribution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1309.3989H" } } }
