Abstract
The typical cell of a stationary Poisson hyperplane tessellation in the d-dimensional Euclidean space is called the Poisson polytope, and the cell containing the origin is called the Poisson 0-polytope. The intention of the paper is to show that the cells of the anisotropic tessellations are in some sense larger than those of the isotropic tessellations. Under the condition of equal intensities, it is proved that the moments of order n = 1, 2, . for the volume of the Poisson 0-polytope in the anisotropic case are not smaller than the corresponding moments in the isotropic case. Similar results are derived for the Poisson polytope. Finally, generalizations are mentioned.
