Intrinsic Volumes and Successive Radii
نویسنده
چکیده
Motivated by a problem of Teissier to bound the intrinsic volumes of a convex body in terms of the inradius and the circumradius of the body, we give upper and lower bounds for the intrinsic volumes of a convex body in terms of the elementary symmetric functions of the so called successive inner and outer radii. These results improve on former bounds and, in particular, they also provide bounds for the elementary symmetric functions of the roots of Steiner polynomials in terms of the elementary symmetric functions of these radii.

Estimating Sizes of a Convex Body by Successive Diameters and Widths
The second theorem of Minkowski establishes a relation between the successive minima and the volume of a 0-symmetric convex body. Here we show corresponding inequalities for arbitrary convex bodies, where the successive minima are replaced by certain successive diameters and successive widths. We further give some applications of these results to successive radii, intrinsic volumes and the latt...
متن کاملRandom ball-polyhedra and inequalities for intrinsic volumes
We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections of Euclidean balls of large radii and centered at randomly chosen points. The proof depends on a new isoperimetric inequality for the intrinsic volumes of s...
متن کاملSuccessive Minima and Radii
In this note we present inequalities relating the successive minima of a o-symmetric convex body and the successive inner and outer radii of the body. These inequalities build a bridge between known inequalities involving only either the successive minima or the successive radii.
متن کاملThe packing density in proteins: standard radii and volumes.
The sizes of atomic groups are a fundamental aspect of protein structure. They are usually expressed in terms of standard sets of radii for atomic groups and of volumes for both these groups and whole residues. Atomic groups, which subsume a heavy-atom and its covalently attached hydrogen atoms into one moiety, are used because the positions of hydrogen atoms in protein structures are generally...
متن کاملAn experimental study on hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flow in coarse-grained porous media
The equations of fluids in porous media are very useful in designing the rockfill and diversion dams, gabions, breakwaters and ground water reserves. Researches have been showed that the Forchheimer equation is not sufficient for the analysis of hydraulic behavior of free-surface radial flows; because, in these flows, in addition to the hydraulic gradient and velocity, the variable of radius is...
