ABSTRACT

The present study introduces a class of directed $k$-nearest-neighbours point processes. The neighbourhood relation is non-symmetric and depends on the realization of the process. The existence of stationary Gibbs states is proved for such models in $R^m$. Furthermore, under a finite range condition, uniqueness of stationary Gibbs states is proved for sufficiently small intensity. Finally, original simulations are proposed using a direct adaptation to our class of models of the Geyer and Moller algorithm.
