Fine Gaussian fluctuations on the Poisson space II: rescaled kernels, marked processes and geometric U-statistics

Abstract: Continuing the analysis initiated in Lachi\'eze-Rey and Peccati (2011), we use contraction operators to study the normal approximation of random variables having the form of a U-statistic written on the points in the support of a random Poisson measure. Applications are provided: to boolean models, and coverage of random networks.
