SCALING LIMITS FOR A RANDOM BOXES MODEL

We consider random rectangles in R-2 that are distributed according to a Poisson random measure, i.e. independently and uniformly scattered in the plane. The distributions of the length and the width of the rectangles are heavy tailed with different parameters. We investigate the scaling behaviour of the related random fields as the intensity of the random measure grows to infinity while the mean edge lengths tend to zero. We characterise the arising scaling regimes. identify the limiting random fields, and give statistical properties of these limits.
