Abstract

This paper reviews nonlinear extensions of the Slivnyak-Mecke formula as moment identities for functionals of Poisson point processes, and some of their applications. This includes studying the invariance of Poisson point processes under random transformations, as well as applications to distribution estimation for random sets in stochastic geometry, random graph connectivity, and density estimation for neuron membrane potentials in Poisson shot noise models.
