THE CONVEX INTERSECTION BODY OF A CONVEX BODY
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 March 2011
Abstract
Let L be a convex body in n and z an interior point of L. We associate with L and z a new, convex and centrally symmetric, body CI(L, z). This generalizes the classical intersection bodyI(L, z) (whose radial function at u ∈ Sn−1 is the volume of the hyperplane section of L through z, orthogonal to u). CI(L, z) coincides with I(L, z) if and only if L is centrally symmetric about z. We study the properties of CI(L, z).
