Floating bodies for ball-convex bodies

Metric Geometry 2025-04-23 v1

Abstract

We define floating bodies in the class of nn-dimensional ball-convex bodies. A right derivative of volume of these floating bodies leads to a surface area measure for ball-convex bodies which we call relative affine surface area. We show that this quantity is a rigid motion invariant, upper semi continuous valuation.
