Finitely additive functionals on the plane (Q1901439)

The aim of this paper is similar to the one of Ambartzumyan and Oganyan (see the preceding review) but it is devoted to functionals on planar bounded convex polygons. Given a functional \(\Psi\) defined on ``needles'' (oriented segments) and given a natural extension of \(\Psi\) to bounded convex polygons, if \(\Psi\) can be represented as an integral of a twice differentiable function defined on the flags (a flag being a pair \((P,h)\) with \(P\) a point and \(h\) an half-plane whose boundary contains \(P\)) then, under some additional conditions, \(\Psi\) determines a signed measure on \(\mathbb{R}^2\). The author also shows that the case of a functional \(\Psi\) defined on the ``corners'' (oriented angles) can be reduced to the needle case and it also treats the mixed case.
