✦ Synopsis
We investigate the possibility of extending classical integral geometric results, involving lower-dimensional areas, from Euclidean space to Minkowski spaces (finite-dimensional Banach spaces). Of the two natural notions of area in a Minkowski space, due respectively to Busemann and to Holmes and Thompson, the latter turns out to be the more tractable one. For the Holmes Thompson area, we derive a translative intersection formula and, in the class of hypermetric Minkowski spaces, full analogues of the Crofton formulae for rectifiable sets and for convex bodies. For the Busemann k-area, we give a short proof of the fact that it coincides, for k-rectifiable sets, with the k-dimensional Hausdorff measure induced by the Minkowski metric.
