Length distributions of edges in planar stationary and isotropic STIT tessellations

Abstract

Stationary and isotropic random tessellations of the euclidean plane are studied which have the characteristic property to be stable with respect to iteration (or nesting), STIT for short. Since their cells are not in a face-to-face position, three different types of linear segments appear. For all the types the distribution of the length of the typical segment is given.
