We show that the natural "convolution" on the space of smooth, even, translation-invariant convex valuations on a euclidean space $V$, obtained by intertwining the product and the duality transform of S. Alesker, may be expressed in terms…

We are interested in the ``smoothest'' averaging that can be achieved by convolving functions $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with an averaging function $u$. More precisely, suppose $u:\{-n, \ldots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a symmetric function…
