The Polya branching process and limit theorems for conditioned random fields

Abstract: The first aim is to construct generalizations of Polya type point process by applying a branching mechanism to these point processes. Conditions are given under which these point processes satisfy an integration by parts formula. Furthermore we compute their Palm kernels, which turn out to be superpositions of different point processes. Secondly we identify all point processes whose local characteristics agree with these of a fixed branching of a Polya type point process as mixtures of branchings of Polya type point process and show that in this case also they are characterized by an integration by parts formula.
