Böröczky Károly: A "kup-terfogat" mertekrol

One of the cornerstones of the Brunn-Minkowski theory of convex bodies is the Minkowski problem about the existence of a convex body with prescribed surface area measure. Here we are concerned with the Minkowski problem for the cone volume measure, whose study was iniated by Gromov and Milman. For an origin symmetric convex body in $R^d$ of volume one, its cone volume measure is the probability measure on the sphere $S^{d-1}$, which is the integral of the normalized support function with respect to the surface area measure. For an origin symmetric convex polytope, it is the discrete probability measure where the measure of an exterior unit normal is the volume of the cone over the corresponding facet.

In this talk, the characterization of the cone volume measures among even probability measures on $S^{d-1}$ is presented. In addition, the uniqueness problem is discussed in the plane and for unconditional convex bodies.

This is joint work with E. Lutwak, D. Yang and G. Zhang.
