Description: Further DetailsTitle: Convex Bodies: The Brunn–Minkowski TheoryCondition: NewEAN: 9781107601017ISBN: 9781107601017Publisher: Cambridge University PressFormat: HardbackRelease Date: 10/31/2013Description: At the heart of this monograph is the Brunn–Minkowski theory, which can be used to great effect in studying such ideas as volume and surface area and their generalizations. In particular, the notions of mixed volume and mixed area measure arise naturally and the fundamental inequalities that are satisfied by mixed volumes are considered here in detail. The author presents a comprehensive introduction to convex bodies, including full proofs for some deeper theorems. The book provides hints and pointers to connections with other fields and an exhaustive reference list. This second edition has been considerably expanded to reflect the rapid developments of the past two decades. It includes new chapters on valuations on convex bodies, on extensions like the Lp Brunn–Minkowski theory, and on affine constructions and inequalities. There are also many supplements and updates to the original chapters, and a substantial expansion of chapter notes and references.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 236mmItem Length: 163mmItem Width: 46mmItem Weight: 1290gAuthor: Rolf SchneiderGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its ApplicationsRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
