On the Dual p-Measures of Asymmetry for Star Bodies

  • Published:
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences

Abstract

Recently, the connection between p-measures of asymmetry and the Lp -mixed volumes for convex bodies was found soon after the p-measure of asymmetry was proposed, and the Orlicz-measures of asymmetry was proposed inspired by such a kind of connection. In this paper, by a similar way the dual p -measures of asymmetry for star bodies (naturally for convex bodies) is introduced first. Then the connection between dual p -measures of asymmetry and Lp -dual mixed volumes is established. Finally, the best lower and upper bounds of dual p-measures and the corresponding extremal bodies are discussed.
