In this paper, the 2-D random closed sets (RACS) are studied by means of the Feret diameter, also known as the caliper diameter. More specifically, it is shown that a 2-D symmetric convex RACS can be approximated as precisely as we want by some random zonotopes (polytopes formed by the Minkowski sum of line segments) in terms of the Hausdorff distance. Such an approximation is fully defined from the Feret diameter of the 2-D convex RACS. Particularly, the moments of the random vector representing the face lengths of the zonotope approximation are related to the moments of the Feret diameter random process of the RACS.

Our paper starts from presentation and comparison of three definitions for the self-similar field. The interconnection between these definitions has been established. Then we consider the Lamperti scaling transformation for the self-similar field and investigate the connection between the scaling transformation for such field and the shift transformation for the corresponding stationary field. It was also shown that the fractional Brownian sheet has the ergodic scaling transformation. The strong limit theorems for the anisotropic growth of the sample paths of the self-similar field at 0 and at ∞ for the upper and lower functions have been proved. It was obtained the upper bound for growth of the field with ergodic scaling transformation for slowly varying functions. We present some examples of iterated log-type limits for the Gaussian self-similar random fields.
