Deviation Measures and Normals of Convex Bodies
نویسنده
چکیده
With any given convex body we associate three numbers that exhibit, respectively, its deviation from a ball, a centrally symmetric body, and a body of constant width. Several properties of these deviation measures are studied. Then, noting that these special bodies may be defined in terms of their normals, corresponding deviation measures for normals are introduced. Several inequalities are proved that show that convex bodies cannot deviate much from these special types if their corresponding deviations of the normals are small. These inequalities can be interpreted as stability results.

The Hadwiger Conjecture for Unconditional Convex Bodies
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...

متن کاملA NEW APPROACH OF FUZZY NUMBERS WITH DIFFERENT SHAPES AND DEVIATION
In this paper, we propose a new method for fuzzy numbers. In this method, we assume that Ai= (ai1, ai2, ai3, ai4) is to be a fuzzy number. So, the convex combination of ai1 and ai2 and also the convex combination of ai3 and ai4 are obtained separately. Then, Mic and Mis that are to be the convex combinations and the standard deviation respectively we acquire them from these components. Finally,...
متن کاملIntersection Formulae of Integral Geometry 21
We establish extensions of the Crofton formula and, under some restrictions, of the principal kinematic formula of integral geometry from curvature measures to generalized curvature measures of convex bodies. We also treat versions for nite unions of convex bodies. As a consequence, we get a new intuitive interpretation of the area measures of Aleksandrov and Fenchel{ Jessen. The subject of thi...
متن کامل2 KINEMATIC FORMULAE FOR SUPPORT MEASURES OF CONVEX BODIESif
A new kinematic formula for the support measures of convex bodies is proved. The underlying operation is the convex hull operation for pairs of convex bodies. Further, the concept of mixed support measures is introduced and kinematic relations for these new functionals are indicated.
