On limit theorem for the number of vertices of the convex hulls in a unit disk

This paper is devoted to further investigation of the property of a number of vertices of convex hulls generated by independent observations of a two-dimensional random vector with regular distributions near the boundary of support when it is a unit disk. Following P. Groeneboom [4], the Binomial point process is approximated by the Poisson point process near the boundary of support and vertex processes of convex hulls are constructed. The properties of strong mixing and martingality of vertex processes are investigated. Using these properties, asymptotic expressions are obtained for the expectations and variance of the vertex processes that correspond to the results previously obtained by H. Carnal [2]. Further, using the properties of strong mixing of vertex processes, the central limit theorem for a number of vertices of a convex hull is proved.
