Abstract: Any Riemannian manifold has a canonical collection of valuations (finitely additive measures) attached to it, known as the intrinsic volumes or Lipschitz-Killing valuations. They date back to the remarkable discovery of H. Weyl that the coefficients of the tube volume polynomial are intrinsic invariants of the metric. As a consequence, the intrinsic volumes behave naturally under isometric immersions. This phenomenon, subsequently observed in a number of different geometric settings, is commonly referred to as the Weyl principle. In general normed spaces, the Holmes-Thompson intrinsic volumes naturally extend the Euclidean intrinsic volumes. The purpose of this note is to investigate the applicability of the Weyl principle to Finsler manifolds. We show that while in general the Weyl principle fails, a weak form of the principle unexpectedly persists in certain settings.
