Diameter Partitioning.
We characterize the linear space ℋ of differences of support functions of convex bodies of 𝔼² and we consider every h ∈ ℋ as the support function of a generalized hedgehog (a rectifiable closed curve having exactly one oriented support line in each direction). The mixed area (for plane convex bodies identified with their support functions) has a symmetric bilinear extension to ℋ which can be interpreted as a mixed area for generalized hedgehogs. We study generalized hedgehogs and we extend the...
We relate the total curvature and the isoperimetric deficit of a curve in a two-dimensional space of constant curvature with the area enclosed by the evolute of . We provide also a Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a special class of evolutes.
