We provide a unified approach that encompasses some integral formulas for functions of the visual angle of a compact convex set due to Crofton, Hurwitz and Masotti. The basic tool is an integral formula that also allows us to integrate new…
We deal with integrals of invariant measures of pairs of planes in euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^3$ as considered by Hug and Schneider. In this paper we express some of these integrals in terms of functions of the visual angle of a convex…
Crofton's formula of integral geometry evaluates the total motion invariant measure of the set of $k$-dimensional planes having nonempty intersection with a given convex body. This note deals with motion invariant measures on sets of pairs…
Here we analyze three dimensional analogues of the classical Crofton's formula for planar compact convex sets. In this formula a fundamental role is played by the visual angle of the convex set from an exterior point. A generalization of…
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.…
Grassmann angles improve upon similar concepts of angle between subspaces that measure volume contraction in orthogonal projections, working for real or complex subspaces, and being more efficient when dimensions are different. Their…

We investigate integral-geometric quantities arising from harmonic analysis which measure visibility and transversality. Motivated by their applications in multilinear Kakeya problems and affine-invariant measures on surfaces, we derive…
It is shown how new integral-geometric formulae can be obtained from the existing formulae of Crofton type. In particular, for classical Crofton formulae in which the answer depends on the Riemannian volume, we obtain generalizations in…
The Minkowski tensors are the natural tensor-valued generalizations of the intrinsic volumes of convex bodies. We prove two complete sets of integral geometric formulae, so called kinematic and Crofton formulae, for these Minkowski tensors.…

We study the notion of optical geometry, defined to be a Lorentzian manifold equipped with a null line distribution, from the perspective of intrinsic torsion. This is an instance of a non-integrable version of holonomy reduction in…
Perceptual geometry refers to the interdisciplinary research whose objectives focuses on study of geometry from the perspective of visual perception, and in turn, applies such geometric findings to the ecological study of vision. Perceptual…
The article reviews some of the (fairly scattered) information available in the mathematical literature on the subject of angles in complex vector spaces. The following angles and their relations are considered: Euclidean, complex, and…
The Integral Image algorithm is often applied in tasks that require efficient integration over images, such as object detection. In this paper we discuss theoretical aspects of the algorithm's continuous version. We suggest to define the…
We obtain new general results on the structure of the space of translation invariant continuous valuations on convex sets (a version of the hard Lefschetz theorem). Using these and our previous results we obtain explicit characterization of…
We obtain a Principal Kinematic Formula and a Crofton Formula for surface area measures of convex bodies, both involving linear operators on the vector space of signed measures on the unit sphere $S^{d-1}$. These formulas are related to a…
The mathematical theory of gravitational lensing has revealed many generic and global properties. Beginning with multiple imaging, we review Morse-theoretic image counting formulas and lower bound results, and complex-algebraic upper bounds…
