Bounds for the probability generating functional of a Gibbs point process (1210.4177v2)

Abstract: We derive explicit lower and upper bounds for the probability generating functional of a stationary locally stable Gibbs point process, which can be applied to summary statistics like the F function. For pairwise interaction processes we obtain further estimates for the G and K functions, the intensity and higher order correlation functions. The proof of the main result is based on Stein's method for Poisson point process approximation.
