Approximation of a convex hypersurface with bounded positive specific scalar curvature (Q1876455)

Considered are the convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. The integral scalar curvature of a convex hypersurface is defined as a weak limit of the integral scalar curvatures of regular convex hypersurfaces approximating a given hypersurface. The author proves that a convex hypersurface with two-sided bounded positive specific scalar curvature and absolutely continuous elementary symmetric curvature measures can be approximated bt \(C^{1,1}\)-smooth hypersurfaces with uniformly two-sided bounded positive specific scalar curvatures. If, in addition, the specific Gaussian curvature is two-sided bounded and positive then the author proves that the hypersurface itself is of class \(C^{1,1}\).
