On a class of growth-maximal hard-core processes

Generalizing the well-known lilypond model we introduce a growth-maximal hard-core model based on a space-time point process of convex particles. Using a purely deterministic algorithm we prove under fairly general assumptions that the model exists and is uniquely determined by the point process. Under an additional stationarity assumption we show that the model does not percolate. Our model generalizes the lilypond model considerably even if all grains are born at the same time. In that case and under a Poisson assumption we prove a central limit theorem in a large volume scenario.
