We provide a probabilistic proof of the characterization of point processes (on the real line) with the order statistic property. The characterization is used to investigate the homogeneity of such processes and is also related to the martingale theory associated with point processes.

The results of Nawrotzki (1962), Feigin (1979) and Puri (1982) show that the class of all point processes (on the real line) with the order statistic property consists of all mixed Poisson processes up to a time-scale transformation, and of all mixed sample processes. The present note characterizes those order statistic point processes that are mixed Poisson processes and mixed sample processes simultaneously.

This paper is concerned with certain aspects of the theory and application of the probability generating functional (p.g.fl) of a point process on the real line. Interest in point processes has increased rapidly during the last decade and a number of different approaches to the subject have been expounded (see for example [6], [11], [15], [17], [20], [25], [27], [28]). It is hoped that the present development using the p.g.ff will calrify and unite some of these viewpoints and provide a useful tool for solution of particular problems.

A point process, N, on the real line, is thinned using a k -dependent Markov sequence of binary variables, and is rescaled. Second-order properties of the thinned process are described when k = 1. For general k, convergence to a compound Poisson process is demonstrated.

Daley and Vesilo (1997) introduced long-range count dependence (LRcD) for stationary point processes on the real line as a natural augmentation of the classical long-range dependence of the corresponding interpoint sequence. They studied LRcD for some renewal processes and some output processes of queueing systems, continuing the previous research on such processes of Daley (1968), (1975). Subsequently, Daley (1999) showed that a necessary and sufficient condition for a stationary renewal process to be LRcD is that under its Palm measure the generic lifetime distribution has infinite second moment. We show that point processes dominating, in a sense of stochastic ordering, LRcD point processes are LRcD, and as a corollary we obtain that for arbitrary stationary point processes with finite intensity a sufficient condition for LRcD is that under Palm measure the interpoint distances are positively dependent (associated) with infinite second moment. We give many examples of LRcD point processes, among them exchangeable, cluster, moving average, Wold, semi-Markov processes and some examples of LRcD point processes with finite second Palm moment of interpoint distances. These examples show that, in general, the condition of infiniteness of the second moment is not necessary for LRcD. It is an open question whether the infinite second Palm moment of interpoint distances suffices to make a stationary point process LRcD.

Let denote the ideal of Lebesgue measure zero subsets of the real line. Then add() denotes the minimal cardinality of a subset of whose union is not an element of . In [1] Bartoszynski gave an elegant combinatorial characterization of add(), namely: add() is the least cardinal number κ for which the following assertion fails:For every family of at mostκ functions from ω to ω there is a function F from ω to the finite subsets of ω such that:1. For each m, F(m) has at most m + 1 elements, and2. for each f inthere are only finitely many m such that f(m) is not an element of F(m).The symbol A(κ) will denote the assertion above about κ. In the course of his proof, Bartoszynski also shows that the cardinality restriction in 1 is not sharp. Indeed, let (Rm: m < ω) be any sequence of integers such that for each m Rm, ≤ Rm+1, and such that limm→∞Rm = ∞. Then the truth of the assertion A(κ) is preserved if in 1 we say instead that1′. For each m, F(m) has at most Rm elements.We shall use this observation later on. We now define three more statements, denoted B(κ), C(κ) and D(κ), about cardinal number κ.

We prove the following results concerning the first Betti numbers of abelian coverings of CP2 branched over line configurations: (1) An estimate of the first Betti numbers. (2) A characterization of central and general position line configurations in terms of the first Betti numbers of abelian coverings. (3) The first Betti numbers of the abelian coverings of the real line configurations up to 7 components.
