We investigate the famous Hadwiger Conjecture, focusing on unconditional convex bodies. We establish some facts about covering with homotethic copies for Lp balls, and prove a property of outer normals to unconditional bodies. We also use a projection method to prove a relation between the bounded and unbounded versions of the conjecture. 1 Definitions and Background Definition 1. A convex body...

We show that the fundamental objects of the Lp-Brunn-Minkowski theory, namely the Lp-affine surface areas for a convex body, are closely related to information theory: they are exponentials of Rényi divergences of the cone measures of a convex body and its polar. We give geometric interpretations for all Rényi divergences Dα, not just for the previously treated special case of relative entropy ...

Algorithms are given for reconstructing an approximation to an unknown convex body from finitely many values of its brightness function, the function giving the volumes of its projections onto hyperplanes. One of these algorithms constructs a convex polytope with less than a prescribed number of facets, while the others do not restrict the number of facets. Convergence of the polytopes to the b...

We discuss the Siciak-Zaharjuta extremal function of a real convex body in Cn, a solution of the homogeneous complex Monge-Ampère equation on the exterior of the convex body. We determine several conditions under which a foliation by holomorphic curves can be found in the complement of the convex body along which the extremal function is harmonic. We study a variational problem for holomorphic ...

In this paper we find a characterization type result for (η1,η2)-convex functions. The Fejér integral inequality related to (η1,η2)-convex functions is obtained as a generalization of Fejér inequality related to the preinvex and η-convex functions. Also some Fejér trapezoid and midpoint type inequalities are given in the case that the absolute value of the derivative of considered function is (...

Rotation intertwining maps from the set of convex bodies in R 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 that such maps are represented by a spherical convolution operator. An application of this representation is a complete classification of all even BlaschkeMi...

We introduce a fractional version of the illumination problem of Gohberg, Markus, Boltyanski and Hadwiger, according to which every convex body in R is illuminated by at most 2 directions. We say that a weighted set of points on Sd−1 illuminates a convex body K if for each boundary point of K, the total weight of those directions that illuminate K at that point is at least one. We define the fr...

For a convex body of given volume in spherical space, the total invariant measure of hitting great subspheres becomes minimal, equivalently the volume of the polar body becomes maximal, if and only if the body is a spherical cap. This result can be considered as a spherical counterpart of two Euclidean inequalities, the Urysohn inequality connecting mean width and volume, and the Blaschke-Santa...

The ratio between the volume of the p-centroid body of a convex body K in Rn and the volume of K attains its minimum value if and only if K is an origin symmetric ellipsoid. This result, the Lp-Busemann-Petty centroid inequality, was recently proved by Lutwak, Yang and Zhang. In this paper we show that all the intrinsic volumes of the p-centroid body of K are convex functions of a time-like par...
