We consider valuations defined on polytopes containing the origin which have measures on the sphere as values. We show that the classical surface area measure is essentially the only such valuation which is SL(n) contravariant of degree…

This paper presents a study of generalized polyhedral convexity under basic operations on multifunctions. We address the preservation of generalized polyhedral convexity under sums and compositions of multifunctions, the domains and ranges…

Sumset estimates, which provide bounds on the cardinality of sumsets of finite sets in a group, form an essential part of the toolkit of additive combinatorics. In recent years, probabilistic or entropic analogs of many of these…

Fourier transforms of Lorentz invariant functions in Minkowski space, with support on both the timelike and the spacelike domains are performed by means of direct integration. The cases of 1+1 and 1+2 dimensions are worked out in detail,…

All continuous translation invariant complex-valued valuations on Lebesgue measurable functions are completely classified. And all continuous rotation invariant complex-valued valuations on spherical Lebesgue measurable functions are also…

Omnidirectional images and spherical representations of $3D$ shapes cannot be processed with conventional 2D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) as the unwrapping leads to large distortion. Using fast implementations of spherical and…

The normal map given by Birkhoff orthogonality yields extensions of principal, Gaussian and mean curvatures to surfaces immersed in three-dimensional spaces whose geometry is given by an arbitrary norm and which are also called Minkowski…

We study real-valued, continuous and translation invariant valuations defined on the space of quasi-concave functions of N variables. In particular, we prove a homogeneous decomposition theorem of McMullen type, and we find a representation…

We give geometric interpretations of certain affine invariants of convex bodies. The affine invariants are the p-affine surface areas introduced by Lutwak. The geometric interpretations involve generalizations of the Santal\'o-bodies…

In this paper, inspired by the work of Spruck-Xiao [27] and based partly on a result of Derdzi\'nski [11], we prove the convexity of complete 2-convex translating and expanding solitons to the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. More…

It is shown that every continuous valuation defined on the $n$-dimensional star bodies has an integral representation in terms of the radial function. Our argument is based on the non-trivial fact that continuous valuations are uniformly…

The famous Minkowski inequality provides a sharp lower bound for the mixed volume $V(K,M[n-1])$ of two convex bodies $K,M\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ in terms of powers of the volumes of the individual bodies $K$ and $M$. The special case where $K$…

Rotation intertwining maps from the set of convex bodies in Rn into itself that are continuous linear operators with respect to Minkowski and Blaschke addition are investigated. The main focus is on Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphisms. We show…

The Minkowski problem in convex geometry concerns showing that a given Borel measure on the unit sphere is, up to perhaps a constant, some type of surface area measure of a convex body. Two types of Minkowski problems in particular are an…

A variational formula is derived by combining the Gaussian volume of the epigraph of a convex function $\varphi$ and the perturbation of $\varphi$ via the infimal convolution. This formula naturally leads to a Borel measure on…
