SL(n) Contravariant Matrix-Valued Valuations on Polytopes

Differential Geometry 2024-05-14 v1

Abstract

All SL(n)\textrm{SL}(n) contravariant matrix-valued valuations on polytopes in Rn\mathbb{R}^n are completely classified without any continuity assumptions. Moreover, the symmetry assumption of matrices is removed. The general Lutwak-Yang-Zhang matrix turns out to be the only such valuation if n4n\geq 4, while a new function shows up in dimension three. In dimension two, the classification corresponds to the known case of SL(2)\textrm{SL}(2) equivariant matrix-valued valuations.
