We study point processes on Sd, the d-dimensional unit sphere S-d, considering both the isotropic and the anisotropic case, and focusing mostly on the spherical case d = 2. The first part studies reduced Palm distributions and functional summary statistics, including nearest neighbour functions, empty space functions, and Ripley's and inhomogeneous K-functions. The second part partly discusses the appealing properties of determinantal point process (DPP) models on the sphere and partly considers the application of functional summary statistics to DPPs. In fact DPPs exhibit repulsiveness, but we also use them together with certain dependent thinnings when constructing point process models on the sphere with aggregation on the large scale and regularity on the small scale. We conclude with a discussion on future work on statistics for spatial point processes on the sphere. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
