The dual Loomis-Whitney inequality provides the sharp lower bound for the volume of a convex body in terms of its $(n-1)$-dimensional coordinate sections. In this paper, some reverse forms of the dual Loomis-Whitney inequality are obtained. In particular, we show that the best universal DLW-constant for origin-symmetric planar convex bodies is $1$.

In this paper, we introduce several mixed Lp geominimal surface areas for multiple convex bodies for all $−n\neq p \in R$. Our definitions are motivated from an equivalent formula for the mixed p-affine surface area. Some properties, such as the affine invariance, for these mixed Lp geominimal surface areas are proved. Related inequalities, such as, Alexander-Fenchel type inequality, Santal´o style inequality, affine isoperimetric inequalities, and cyclic inequalities are established. Moreover, we also study some properties and inequalities for the i-th mixed Lp geominimal surface areas for two convex bodies.

Inversive distance circle packing metric was introduced by P Bowers and K Stephenson as a generalization of Thurston’s circle packing metric. They conjectured that the inversive distance circle packings are rigid. For nonnegative inversive distance, Guo proved the infinitesimal rigidity and then Luo proved the global rigidity. In this paper, based on an observation of Zhou, we prove this conjecture for inversive distance in (−1, +∞)by variational principles. We also study the global rigidity of a combinatorial curvature with respect to the inversive distance circle packing metrics where the inversive distance is in (−1, +∞).

It is proved that the classical Laplace transform is a continuous valuation which is positively GL(n) covariant and logarithmic translation covariant. Conversely, these properties turn out to be sucient to characterize this transform.
