The Wulff construction for convex integrands

Abstract: For any given Wulff shape

m a t h c a l W

, we can define the unique continuous function

S^{n} o m a t h b b R_{+}

called convex integrand, denoted by

g a m m a_{_{m a t h c a l W}}

. In this paper, we show that, for any Wulff shapes

m a t h c a l W_{1}

and

m a t h c a l W_{2}

, the equality

d (g a m m a_{_{m a t h c a l W_{1}}}, g a m m a_{_{m a t h c a l W_{2}}}) = h (m a t h c a l W_{1}, m a t h c a l W_{2})

holds, where

d

is the maximum distance of the function space consisting of convex integrands and

h

is the Pompeiu-Hausdorff distance of the space consisting of Wulff shapes. Moreover, applications of this result are given.
