Chord Measure on the Sphere and Associated Minkowski-Type Problem
摘要
In this paper, we introduce the spherical support function and radial function for spherically convex bodies contained within a hemisphere. Using variational methods for spherical chord integral, we investigate the associated chord measure on the sphere. Our main results establish the weak convergence of this measure and, as a byproduct, demonstrate that the spherical chord measure of a spherically convex body is absolutely continuous with respect to the surface area measure of its gnomonic projection. Furthermore, we propose and solve a Minkowski-type problem associated with the spherical chord measure.
