Norm Estimates for $k$-Plane Transforms and Geometric Inequalities

Abstract

The article is devoted to remarkable interrelation between the norm estimates for $k$-plane transforms in weighted and unweighted $L^p$ spaces and geometric integral inequalities for cross-sections of measurable sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also consider more general $j$-plane to $k$-plane transforms on affine Grassmannians and their compact modifications. The article contains a series of new integral-geometric inequalities with sharp constants, explicit equalities, conjectures, and open problems.
