An introduction to geometric valuation theory is given. The focus is on classification results for $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ invariant and rigid motion invariant valuations on convex bodies and on convex functions.

A convolution representation of continuous translation invariant and SO(n) equivariant Minkowski valuations is established. This is based on a new classification of translation invariant generalized spherical valuations. As applications,…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and also let $H$ be a compact subgroup of $G$. It is shown that, if $\mu$ is a relatively invariant measure on $G/H$ then there is a well-defined convolution on $L^1(G/H,\mu)$ such that the Banach space…

The famous Hadwiger theorem classifies all rigid motion invariant continuous valuations on convex sets as linear conbinations of quermassintegrals. We prove much more general result. We classify continuous valuations which are invariant…

The product of smooth valuations on manifolds is described in terms of differential forms, Gelfand transforms and blow-up spaces. It is shown that the product extends partially to generalized valuations and corresponds geometrically to…
