چکیده

over high levels u. For a large class of such random fields we compute the u → ∞ asymptotic joint distribution of the numbers of critical points, of various types, of X in Au, conditional on Au being non-empty. This allows us, for example, to obtain the asymptotic conditional distribution of the Euler characteristic of the excursion set. In a significant departure from the Gaussian situation, the high level excursion sets for these random fields can have quite a complicated geometry. Whereas in the Gaussian case non-empty excursion sets are, with high probability, roughly ellipsoidal, in the more general infinitely divisible setting almost any shape is possible.

Limit theorems for excursion sets of stationary random fields

We give an overview of the recent asymptotic results on the geometry of excursion sets of stationary random fields. Namely, we cover a number of limit theorems of central type for the volume of excursions of stationary (quasi–, positively or negatively) associated random fields with stochastically continuous realizations for a fixed excursion level. This class includes in particular Gaussian, P...

Centre for Stochastic Geometry and Advanced Bioimaging

We consider a continuous, infinitely divisible random field in Rd, d = 1, 2, 3, given as an integral of a kernel function with respect to a Lévy basis with convolution equivalent Lévy measure. For a large class of such random fields we compute the asymptotic probability that the excursion set at level x contains some rotation of an object with fixed radius as x → ∞. Our main result is that the ...

Excursion Sets of Stable Random Fields 3

Studying the geometry generated by Gaussian and Gaussianrelated random fields via their excursion sets is now a well developed and well understood subject. The purely non-Gaussian scenario has, however, not been studied at all. In this paper we look at three classes of stable random fields, and obtain asymptotic formulae for the mean values of various geometric characteristics of their excursio...

On the Capacity Functional of Excursion Sets of Gaussian Random Fields on R2

When a random field (Xt, t ∈ R2) is thresholded on a given level u, the excursion set is given by its indicator 1[u,∞)(Xt). The purpose of this work is to study functionals (as established in stochastic geometry) of these random excursion sets, as e.g. the capacity functional as well as the second moment measure of the boundary length. It extends results obtained for the one-dimensional case to...

Simulation of Infinitely Divisible Random Fields

Abstract. Two methods to approximate infinitely divisible random fields are presented. The methods are based on approximating the kernel function in the spectral representation of such fields, leading to numerical integration of the respective integrals. Error bounds for the approximation error are derived and the approximations are used to simulate certain classes of infinitely divisible rando...
