Review text

These notes introduce the reader to several applications of measure theory to the study of convex sets. In the first chapter examples are presented on how Hausdorff measures can be used to describe singular points or directions on the boundary of convex sets. The second chapter introduces curvature measures that are used to generalize the differential geometric notions of mean curvature and Gauss curvature. In the third part the author discusses zonoids. These are special convex bodies that appear in measure theory and are of considerable interest in geometry.
