In this paper, we consider the L p dual Minkowski problem by geometric variational method. Using anisotropic Gauss–Kronecker curvature flows, we establish the existence of smooth solutions of the L p dual Minkowski problem when pq ≥ 0 and the given data is even. If f ≡ 1, we show under some restrictions on p and q that the only even, smooth, uniformly convex solution is the unit ball.

The nth power of the volume functional Vnof polytopes P in R^n, according to dimensions of the spaces spanned by any nunit outer normal vectors of P, is decomposed into nhomogeneous polynomials of degree n. A set of new sharp affine isoperimetric inequalities for these volume decomposition functionals in R^3 are established, which essentially characterize the geometric and algebraic structures of polytopes.

A discrete conformality for polyhedral metrics on surfaces is introduced in this paper. It is shown that each polyhedral metric on a compact surface is discrete conformal to a constant curvature polyhedral metric which is unique up to scaling. Furthermore, the constant curvature metric can be found using a finite dimensional variational principle.
