Petty proved that a convex body in R^n has the minimal surface area amongst its SL(n)images, if, and only if, its surface area measure is isotropic. By introducing a new notion of minimal Orlicz surface area, we generalize this result to the Orlicz setting. The analog of Ball’s reverse isoperimetric inequality is established.

In this paper, we demonstrate the existence part of the discrete Orlicz Minkowski problem, which is a non-trivial extension of the discrete Lp Minkowski problem for 0 < p < 1.

The $L_p$ cosine transform on Grassmann manifolds naturally induces finite dimensional Banach norms whose unit balls are origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\rn$. Reverse isoperimetric type volume inequalities for these bodies are established, which extend results from the sphere to Grassmann manifolds.

In this paper, the Lp(p\geq1) mean zonoid of a convex body K is given, and we show that it is the Lp centroid body of radial (n+p)th mean body of K up to a dilation. We also establish some affine inequalities of these bodies by proving that the volume of the new bodies is decreasing under Steiner symmetrization.
