Abstract

Typical weighted random simplices $Z_{μ}$ , $μ \in (- 2, \infty)$ , in a Poisson–Delaunay tessellation in $ℝ^{n}$ are considered, where the weight is given by the $(μ + 1)$ st power of the volume. As special cases this includes the typical ( $μ = - 1$ ) and the usual volume-weighted ( $μ = 0$ ) Poisson–Delaunay simplex. By proving sharp bounds on cumulants it is shown that the logarithmic volume of $Z_{μ}$ satisfies a central limit theorem in high dimensions, that is, as $n \to \infty$ . In addition, rates of convergence are provided. In parallel, concentration inequalities as well as moderate deviations are studied. The set-up allows the weight $μ = μ (n)$ to depend on the dimension $n$ as well. A number of special cases are discussed separately. For fixed $μ$ also mod- $ϕ$ convergence and the large deviations behaviour of the logarithmic volume of $Z_{μ}$ are investigated.
