On the structure of stationary flat processes. II

Summary The present paper continues the work by Davidson, Krickeberg, Papangelou, and the author on proving, under weakest possible assumptions, that a stationary random measure or a simple point process on the space of k-flats in R ^d is a.s. invariant or a Cox process respectively. The problems for and are related by the fact that is Cox whenever the Papangelou conditional intensity measure of (a thinning of) is a.s. invariant. In particular, is shown to be a.s. invariant, whenever it is absolutely continuous with respect to some fixed measure and has no (so called) outer degeneracies. When k=d–22, no absolute continuity is needed, provided that the first moments exist and that has no inner degeneracies either. Under a certain regularity condition on , it is further shown that and are simultaneously non-degenerate in either sense.
