We establish some relations between the perimeter, the area and the visual angle of a planar compact convex set. Our first result states that Crofton's formula is the unique universal formula relating the visual angle, length and area.…

We study the problem of estimating the surface area of the boundary $\partial S$ of a sufficiently smooth set $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ when the available information is only a finite subset $\X\subset S$. We propose two estimators. The first…

On the class of log-concave functions on $\R^n$, endowed with a suitable algebraic structure, we study the first variation of the total mass functional, which corresponds to the volume of convex bodies when restricted to the subclass of…

For a convex body on the Euclidean unit sphere the spherical convex floating body is introduced. The asymptotic behavior of the volume difference of a spherical convex body and its spherical floating body is investigated. This gives rise to…

We prove a a formula for the first variation of the integral of a log-concave function, which allows us to define the surface area measure of such a function. The formula holds in complete generality with no regularity assumptions, and is…

In this paper, we consider convex sets $K_r = \{g \ge r\}$ in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space, where $g$ is suitably related to a reference Gaussian measure $\mu$ in $H$. We first show how to define a surface measure on the level sets…

We prove area bounds for planar convex bodies in terms of their number of interior integral points and their lattice width data. As an application, we obtain sharp area bounds for rational polygons with a fixed number of interior integral…
