Abstract

Given a homogenous Poisson point process in the plane, we prove that it is possible to partition the plane into bounded connected cells of equal volume, in a translation-invariant way, with each point of the process contained in exactly one cell. Moreover, the diameter D of the cell containing the origin satisfies the essentially optimal tail bound P(D>r)
