Fu -- 11 Valuations and Boolean Models: Julia Hörrmann and Wolfgang Weil -- 12 Second Order Analysis of Geometric Functionals of Boolean Models: Daniel Hug, Michael A. Klatt, Günter Last and Matthias Schulte -- 13 Cell Shape Analysis of Random Tessellations Based on Minkowski Tensors: Michael A. Klatt, Günter Last, Klaus Mecke, Claudia Redenbach, Fabian M. Schaller, Gerd E. Schröder-Turk -- 14 Stereological Estimation of Mean Particle Volume Tensors in R3 from Vertical Sections: Astrid Kousholt, Johanna F. Ziegel, Markus Kiderlen -- 15 Valuations in Image Analysis: Anne Marie Svane.
Summary: The purpose of this volume is to give an up-to-date introduction to tensor valuations and their applications. Starting with classical results concerning scalar-valued valuations on the families of convex bodies and convex polytopes, it proceeds to the modern theory of tensor valuations. Product and Fourier-type transforms are introduced and various integral formulae are derived. New and well-known results are presented, together with generalizations in several directions, including extensions to the non-Euclidean setting and to non-convex sets. A variety of applications of tensor valuations to models in stochastic geometry, to local stereology and to imaging are also discussed.
