In this article, we propose the notion of the general $p$-affine capacity and prove some basic properties for the general $p$-affine capacity, such as affine invariance and monotonicity. The newly proposed general $p$-affine capacity is compared with several classical geometric quantities, e.g., the volume, the $p$-variational capacity and the $p$-integral affine surface area. Consequently, several sharp geometric inequalities for the general $p$-affine capacity are obtained. These inequalities extend and strengthen many well-known (affine) isoperimetric and (affine) isocapacitary inequalities.

In this paper, Orlicz valuations compatible with $SL(n)$ transforms are classified. Unlike their $L_p$ analogs, the identity \text{operator} and the reflection operator are the only $SL(n)$ \text{compatible} Orlicz valuations (up to dilations). It turns out that the Orlicz projection body operator, the Orlicz centroid body operator and the Orlicz difference body operator are not Orlicz valuations. The property that the Orlicz difference body operator is not an Orlicz valuation plays an important role in characterizing the identity operator and the reflection operator.

The centro-affine Minkowski problem in affine differential geometry is considered. Existence for the solution of the discrete centro-affine Minkowski problem is proved.

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.

Let (V, E) denote a graph with vertex set V= V (T) and edge set E= E (). Suppose a group TL acts on V such that:(i) for all g Ti,{gu, gv} GE if and only if {u, v} E,(ii) for any two vertices and v, there is a g T such that guv. Then we say is a homogeneous graph with the associated group Ti. In other words, is vertex-transitive under the action of Ti and We can identify V with the coset space Ti/X where X={g E Ti: gvv}, for a fixed vertex v, denotes the isotropy group. We note that the Cayley graph is a special case of homogeneous graphs with X trivial. The edge set of a homogeneous graph can be described by an (edge) generating set ii H such that each edge of is of the form {v, gv} for some v V, and g . In this paper we require the generating set to be symmetric, ie, g if and only if g^ 1 K. We say that a homogeneous graph is invariant if for every vertex a K, we have aKa-1= K.

By using the method of mixed volumes, we give sharp bounds for inclusion measures of convex bodies in n-dimensional Euclidean space. In the special cases where the random convex body is the unit ball or when n = 3, neater and simpler bounds are obtained. All the associated inequalities proved are new isoperimetrictype inequalities.

We prove two mixed versions of the Discrete Nodal Theorem of Davies et. al.[3] for bounded degree graphs, and for three-connected graphs of fixed genus g . Using this we can show that for a three-connected graph satisfying a certain volume-growth condition, the multiplicity of the g th Laplacian eigenvalue is at most $2\left [

The study of this paper consists of two aspects. One is characterizing the so-called circular cone convexity of f by exploiting the second-order differentiability of f L ; the other is introducing the concepts of determinant and trace associated with circular cone and establishing their basic inequalities. These results show the essential role played by the angle , which gives us a new insight when looking into properties about circular cone. MSC:26A27, 26B05, 26B35, 49J52, 90C33, 65K05.
