We construct valuations on the space of finite-valued convex functions using integration of differential forms over the differential cycle associated to a convex function. We describe the kernel of this procedure and show that the…

An introduction to geometric valuation theory is given. The focus is on classification results for $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ invariant and rigid motion invariant valuations on convex bodies and on convex functions.
A geometric framework relating valuations on convex bodies to valuations on convex functions is introduced. It is shown that a classical result by McMullen can be used to obtain a characterization of continuous, epi-translation invariant,…
We provide a new proof of Alesker's Irreducibility Theorem. We first introduce a new localization technique for polynomial valuations on convex bodies, which we use to independently prove that smooth and translation invariant valuations are…
We consider the Whitney problem for valuations: does a smooth $j$-homogeneous translation-invariant valuation on $\mathbb R^n$ exist that has given restrictions to a fixed family $S$ of linear subspaces? A necessary condition is…
A new class of continuous valuations on the space of convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is introduced. On smooth convex functions, they are defined for $i=0,\dots,n$ by \begin{equation*} u\mapsto \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \zeta(u(x),x,\nabla…
We define the notion of valuation on simplicial maps between geometric realizations of simplicial complexes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Valuations on simplicial maps are analogous to valuations on sets. In particular, we define the Lefschetz…
The hermitian analog of Aleksandrov's area measures of convex bodies is investigated. A characterization of those area measures which arise as the first variation of unitarily invariant valuations is established. General smooth area…
A version of the Hodge-Riemann relations for valuations was recently conjectured and proved in several special cases by the first-named author. The Lefschetz operator considered there arises as either the product or the convolution with the…
A new version of the Hadwiger theorem on convex functions is established and an explicit representation of functional intrinsic volumes is found using new functional Cauchy-Kubota formulas. In addition, connections between functional…
The continuity of the inverse Klain map is investigated and the class of centrally symmetric convex bodies at which every valuation depends continuously on its Klain function is characterized. Among several applications, it is shown that…
Following the work of Semyon Alesker in the scalar valued case and of Thomas Wannerer in the vector valued case, the dimensions of the spaces of continuous translation invariant and unitary equivariant tensor valuations are computed. In…
For valuations on convex bodies in Euclidean spaces, there is by now a long series of characterization and classification theorems. The classical template is Hadwiger's theorem, saying that every rigid motion invariant, continuous,…
The Alesker-Bernig-Schuster theorem asserts that each irreducible representation of the special orthogonal group appears with multiplicity at most one as a subrepresentation of the space of continuous translation-invariant valuations with…

Estimating the coefficient functionals on various classes of holomorphic functions traditionally forms an important field of geometric complex analysis and its mathematical and physical applications. These coefficients reflect fundamental…
A complete classification of unimodular valuations on the set of lattice polygons with values in the spaces of polynomials and formal power series, respectively, is established. The valuations are classified in terms of their behaviour with…
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…
