On limiting laws for the convex hull of a sample
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
The limiting behaviour of the convex hull of a sample in is studied using the support function. Results like that of Eddy and Gale (1981) are proved without the condition of spherical symmetry from that paper.
