In [F] Firey extended the notion of the Minkowski sum, and introduced, for each real p, a new linear combination of convex bodies, that he called p-sums. Lutwak [Lu2], [Lu3] showed that these Firey sums lead to a Brunn-Minkowski theory for each p ≥ 1. He introduced the notions of p-mixed volume, p-surface area measure, and proved an integral representation and inequalities for p-mixed volumes, ...

Large deviations and isoperimetric inequalities are considered for probability distributions, satisfying convexity conditions of the Brunn-Minkowski-type.

This paper develops a significant extension of E. Lutwak’s dual Brunn-Minkowski theory, originally applicable only to star-shaped sets, to the class of bounded Borel sets. The focus is on expressions and inequalities involving chord-power integrals, random simplex integrals, and dual affine quermassintegrals. New inequalities obtained include those of isoperimetric and Brunn-Minkowski type. A n...

In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing Lp-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the Lp-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we introduce a functional form of this concept, for log concave and s-concave functions. We show that the new functional form is a generalization of the original Lp-affi...
