Chapter Chapter 12 in Bodies of Constant Width, 2019, pp 279-297 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The notion of mixed volumesMixed volumes represents a profound concept first discovered by Minkowski in 1900. In the letter [838] he wrote to Hilbert explaining his discoveries as interesting and quite enlightening. As we can see below, this concept will allow us to prove several classical theorems on the volume of constant width bodies in a somewhat unexpected way.
