On areas and integral geometry in Minkowski spaces (Q1356595)

The author continues the investigations of \textit{R. Schneider} and \textit{J. A. Wieacker} [Adv. Math. 129, 222-260 (1997)] on integral geometric results in Minkowski spaces and shows the existence of Minkowski spaces for which a Crofton formula for lower-dimensional areas with an associated Crofton measure is only possible (among all axiomatically defined Minkowskian areas) for the Holmes-Thompson area. Other results concern Minkowskian counterparts to translative integral formulae (in Euclidean dean space). They are formulated either in hypermetric spaces or use mixed volumes of associated zonoids.
