For a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we introduce and study the extremal general affine surface areas, defined by \[ {\rm IS}_{\varphi}(K):=\sup_{K^\prime\subset K}{\rm as}_{\varphi}(K),\quad {\rm os}_{\psi}(K):=\inf_{K^\prime\supset…

Lutwak's notion of affine quermassintegrals of a convex body quickly became of great importance in convex and affine geometry and more recently, also in asymptotic geometric analysis. In this note we introduce the notion of Orlicz mixed…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$. We introduce a new affine invariant, which we call $\Omega_K$, that can be found in three different ways: as a limit of normalized $L_p$-affine surface areas, as the relative entropy of the cone…

Classifications of $\rm{SL}(n)$ covariant function-valued valuations are established with some assumptions of continuity. New valuations, for example, weighted moment functions, are introduced and our classifications give unified…

In 2011 Lutwak, Yang and Zhang extended the definition of the $L_p$-Minkowski convex combination ($p \geq 1$) introduced by Firey in the 1960s from convex bodies containing the origin in their interiors to all measurable subsets in…

This paper aims to develop basic theory for the dual Orlicz $L_{\phi}$ affine and geominimal surface areas for star bodies, which belong to the recent dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for star bodies. Basic properties for these new affine…

On the class of log-concave functions on $\R^n$, endowed with a suitable algebraic structure, we study the first variation of the total mass functional, which corresponds to the volume of convex bodies when restricted to the subclass of…

$L_p$-Christoffel-Minkowski problem arises naturally in the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory. It connects both curvature measures and area measures of convex bodies and is a fundamental problem in convex geometric analysis. Since the lack of…

Lutwak's volume inequalities for polar projection bodies of all orders are generalized to polarizations of Minkowski valuations generated by even, zonal measures on the Euclidean unit sphere. This is based on analogues of mixed projection…

We consider a fully nonlinear partial differential equation associated to the intermediate $L^p$ Christoffel-Minkowski problem in the case $1<p<k+1$. We establish the existence of convex body with prescribed $k$-th even $p$-area measure on…

In this paper, we introduce the $L_p$ geominimal surface area for all $-n\neq p<1$, which extends the classical geominimal surface area ($p=1$) by Petty and the $L_p$ geominimal surface area by Lutwak ($p>1$). Our extension of the $L_p$…

We investigate a natural analog to Lutwak's $p$-affine surface area in $d$-dimensional spherical, hyperbolic and de Sitter space. In particular, we show that these curvature measures appear naturally as the volume derivative of floating…
