Our proof combines disagreement coupling in continuum with a coupling of a Gibbs process and a RCM. The improvement over previous uniqueness results is illustrated both in theory and simulations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-08-13T16:17:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K35", "60G55", "60D05" ], "keywords": [ "subcritical pair potential", "gibbs distributions", "associated poisson-driven random connection model", "gibbs process", "uniqueness results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
