On strongly rigid hyperfluctuating random measures

Abstract

AbstractIn contrast to previous belief, we provide examples of stationary ergodic random measures that are both hyperfluctuating and strongly rigid. Therefore we study hyperplane intersection processes (HIPs) that are formed by the vertices of Poisson hyperplane tessellations. These HIPs are known to be hyperfluctuating, that is, the variance of the number of points in a bounded observation window grows faster than the size of the window. Here we show that the HIPs exhibit a particularly strong rigidity property. For any bounded Borel set B, an exponentially small (bounded) stopping set suffices to reconstruct the position of all points in B and, in fact, all hyperplanes intersecting B. Therefore the random measures supported by the hyperplane intersections of arbitrary (but fixed) dimension, are also hyperfluctuating. Our examples aid the search for relations between correlations, density fluctuations, and rigidity properties.
