A va...Weighted cone-volume functionals are introduced for the convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. For these functionals, geometric inequalities are proved and the equality conditions are characterized. A variety of corollaries are derived, including extremal properties of the regular polytopes involving the $L_p$ surface area. Some applications to crystallography and quantum theory are also presented.Read More
