All continuous GL(n) covariant valuations that map convex bodies to convex bodies are completely classified. This establishes a characterization of moment and projection operators and shows that the Holmes-Thompson area is the unique Minkowski area that is also a bivaluation.

For a one-parameter family (V, {i}pg i=1) of general type hypersurfaces with bases of holomorphic n-forms, we construct open covers V = Spg i=1 Ui using tropical geometry. We show that after normalization, each i is approximately supported on a unique Ui and such a pair approximates a Calabi-Yau hypersurface together with its holomorphic n-form as the parameter becomes large. We also show that the Lagrangian fibers in the fibration constructed by Mikhalkin [9] are asymptotically special Lagrangian. As the holomorphic n-form plays an important role in mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau manifolds, our results is a step toward understanding mirror symmetry for general type manifolds.

In 1976, the author (see the open problem section in [3]) asked the following question: if p is a function defined on i? 3, what is the condition on p so that there is a sphere in R3 whose mean curvature is given by p. There were important works by Treibergs-Wei [2] and others on this question. Recently in a lecture that I gave in the Chinese University of Hong Kong, I realized that my work with R. Schoen on the existence of black hole can be used to settle the prescribed mean curvature question for a large class of p.
