Abstract: Mixed volumes V(K1,dots,Kd) of convex bodies K1,dots,Kd in Euclidean space mathbbRd are of central importance in the Brunn-Minkowski theory. Representations for mixed volumes are available in special cases, for example as integrals over the unit sphere with respect to mixed area measures. More generally, in Hug-Rataj-Weil (2013) a formula for V(K[n],M[dn]), nin1,dots,d1, as a double integral over flag manifolds was established which involved certain flag measures of the convex bodies K and M (and required a general position of the bodies). In the following, we discuss the general case V(K1[n1],dots,Kk[nk]), n1+cdots+nk=d, and show a corresponding result involving the flag measures Omegan1(K1;cdot),dots,Omegank(Kk;cdot). For this purpose, we first establish a curvature representation of mixed volumes over the normal bundles of the bodies involved. We also obtain a corresponding flag representation for the mixed functionals from translative integral geometry and a local version, for mixed (translative) curvature measures.
