A Gilbert tessellation arises by letting linear segments (cracks) in the
plane unfold in time with constant speed, starting from a homogeneous Poisson
point process of germs in randomly chosen directions. Whenever a growing edge
hits an already existing one, it stops growing in this direction. The resulting
process tessellates the plane. The purpose of the present paper is to establish
law of large numbers, variance asymptotics and a central limit theorem for
geometric functionals of such tessellations. The main tool applied is the
stabilization theory for geometric functionals.Comment: 12 page
