In 1939 H. Weyl has introduced the so called intrinsic volumes $V_i(M^n), i=0,\dots,n$, (known also as Lipschitz-Killing curvatures) for any closed smooth Riemannian manifold $M^n$. Given a Riemmanian submersion of compact smooth Riemannian…

A famous theorem of Weyl states that if $M$ is a compact submanifold of euclidean space, then the volumes of small tubes about $M$ are given by a polynomial in the radius $r$, with coefficients that are expressible as integrals of certain…

As sharpened in terms of Alesker's theory of valuations on manifolds, a classic theorem of Weyl asserts that the coefficients of the tube polynomial of an isometrically embedded riemannian manifold $M \hookrightarrow \mathbb R^n$ constitute…

For any closed smooth Riemannian manifold H. Weyl has defined a sequence of numbers called today intrinsic volumes. They include volume, Euler characteristic, and integral of the scalar curvature. We conjecture that absolute values of all…

The recently introduced Lipschitz-Killing curvature measures on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds satisfy a Weyl principle, i.e. are invariant under isometric embeddings. We show that they are uniquely characterized by this property. We apply…

We establish formulas that give the intrinsic volumes, or curvature measures, of sublevel sets of functions defined on Riemannian manifolds as integrals of functionals of the function and its derivatives. For instance, in the Euclidean…

The Weyl principle is extended from the Riemannian to the pseudo-Riemannian setting, and subsequently to manifolds equipped with generic symmetric $(0,2)$-tensors. More precisely, we construct a family of generalized curvature measures…

On four-dimensional closed manifolds we introduce a class of canonical Riemannian metrics, that we call weak harmonic Weyl metrics, defined as critical points in the conformal class of a quadratic functional involving the norm of the…

In 1939 Weyl showed that the volume of spherical tubes around compact submanifolds M of Euclidean space depends solely on the induced Riemannian metric on M. Can this intrinsic nature of the tube volume be preserved for tubes with more…

We develop a new method to estimate the area, and more generally the intrinsic volumes, of a compact subset $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ from a set $Y$ that is close in the Hausdorff distance. This estimator enjoys a linear rate of convergence as…

Let $M$ be a smooth compact manifold of dimension $d$ without boundary. We introduce the concept of predominance for Riemannian metrics on $M$, a notion analogous to full Lebesgue measure which, in particular, implies density. We show that…
