Affine Function-Valued Valuations

Abstract: A classification of SL

(n)

contravariant, continuous function valued valuations on convex bodies is established. Such valuations are natural extensions of SL

(n)

contravariant

L_{p}

Minkowski valuations, the classification of which characterized

L_{p}

projection bodies, which are fundamental in the

L_{p}

Brunn-Minkowski theory, for

p g e q 1

. Hence our result will help to better understand extensions of the

L_{p}

Brunn-Minkowski theory. In fact, our results characterize general projection functions which extend

L_{p}

projection functions (

p

-th powers of the support functions of

L_{p}

projection bodies) to projection functions in the

L_{p}

Brunn-Minkowski theory for

0 < p < 1

and in the Orlicz Brunn-Minkowski theory.
