Abstract: | Consider a sequence of stationary tessellations {Θ
n
}, n=0,1,…, of ℝ
d
consisting of cells {C
n
(x
i
n
)}with the nuclei {x
i
n
}. An aggregate cell of level one, C
0
1(x
i
0), is the result of merging the cells of Θ1 whose nuclei lie in C
0(x
i
0). An aggregate tessellation Θ0
n
consists of the aggregate cells of level n, C
0
n
(x
i
0), defined recursively by merging those cells of Θ
n
whose nuclei lie in C
n
−1(x
i
0).
We find an expression for the probability for a point to belong to atypical aggregate cell, and obtain bounds for the rate
of itsexpansion. We give necessary conditions for the limittessellation to exist as n→∞ and provide upperbounds for the Hausdorff dimension of its fractal boundary and forthe spherical contact distribution function
in the case ofPoisson-Voronoi tessellations {Θ
n
}.
