On Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphisms and radial Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphisms (Q282832)

The author combines the notions of Blaschke-Minkowski and radial Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphism (introduced in [\textit{F. E. Schuster}, Mathematika 53, No. 2, 211--234 (2006; Zbl 1129.52002)]) and volume difference function of convex bodies (defined in [\textit{S. Lv}, Geom. Dedicata 145, 169--180 (2010; Zbl 1202.52008)]) to define the volume difference function of a Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphism \(\Phi\) and a radial Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphism \(\Psi\) by \[ D_{\tilde w_i}^{w_i}(\Phi K,\Psi D)=W_i(\Phi K)-\tilde W_i(\Psi D), \] where \(K\subset\mathbb{R}^n\) is a convex body, \(D\subset\mathbb{R}^n\) is a star body, \(W_i\) (resp. \(\tilde W_i\)) is the \(i\)-th quermassintegral (resp. dual quermassintegral), and \(0\leq i<n\). In the paper, the author proves a Minkowski, Brunn-Minkowski, and Aleksandrov-Fenchel type inequality for volume difference function of a Blaschke-Minkowski and a radial Blaschke-Minkowski homomorphism.
