We generalize the fixed-point property for discrete groups acting on convex cones given by Monod in \cite{monod} to topological groups. At first, we focus on describing this fixed-point property from a functional point of view, and then we…

In convex geometry, the constructions that assign to a convex body its difference body, projection body, or volume have the following properties: They are (1) invariant under volume-preserving linear changes of coordinates; (2) continuous;…

All SL($n$) contravariant vector valuations on polytopes in $\mathbb R^n$ are completely classified without any additional assumptions. The facet vector is defined. It turns out to be the unique such valuation for $n\geq3$. In dimension…
