Valuations constitute a class of functionals on convex bodies which include the Euler-characteristic, the surface area, the Lebesgue-measure, and many more classical functionals. Curvature measures may be regarded as "localised`` versions…

A classical theorem of P. McMullen describes all valuations on polytopes that are invariant under translations and weakly continuous, i.e., continuous with respect to parallel displacements of the facets of a polytope. While it is typically…
