A unified approach used to generalize classical Brunn-Minkowski type inequalities to Lp Brunn-Minkowski type inequalities, called the Lp trans- ference principle, is refined in this paper. As illustrations of the effectiveness and practicability of this method, several new Lp Brunn-Minkowski type in- equalities concerning the mixed volume, moment of inertia, quermassintegral, projection body and capacity are established.

We study the smoothness of the Siciak–Zaharjuta extremal function associated to a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ . We also prove a formula relating the complex equilibrium measure of a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ ($n$≥2) to that of its Robin indicatrix. The main tool we use is extremal ellipses.

Recently, Huang, Lutwak, Yang & Zhang discovered the duals of Federer’s curvature measures within the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory and stated the “Minkowski problem” associated with these new measures. As they showed, this dual Minkowski problem has as special cases the Aleksandrov problem (when the index is 0) and the logarithmic Minkowski problem (when the index is the dimension of the ambient space)—two problems that were never imagined to be connected in any way. Huang, Lutwak, Yang & Zhang established sufficient conditions to guarantee existence of solution to the dual Minkowski problem in the even setting. In this work, existence of solution to the even dual Minkowski problem is established under new sufficiency conditions. It was recently shown by B ̈or ̈oczky, Henk & Pollehn that these new sufficiency conditions are also necessary.
