Book Description:
|
This book gives a self-contained presentation of some recent results, relating the volume of convex bodies in n-dimensional Euclidean space and the geometry of the corresponding finite-dimensional normed spaces. This employs classical ideas from the theory of convex sets, probability theory, approximation theory and the local theory of Banach spaces.
