“…So, some new measures have been found (see [1,5,11,13,16,21]), and more properties of the known ones, including the stability and the relations with other kinds of geometric invariants, are revealed (see [1-3, 6, 14, 18, 19, 22]), and as consequences, some new geometric inequalities are established (see [1, 2, 4, 5, 9-11, 14, 22]). …”

We introduce and study a sequence of geometric invariants for convex bodies in finite-dimensional spaces, which is in a sense dual to the sequence of mean Minkowski measures of symmetry proposed by the second author. It turns out that the sequence introduced in this paper shares many nice properties with the sequence of mean Minkowski measures, such as the sub-arithmeticity and the upper-additivity. More meaningfully, it is shown that this new sequence of geometric invariants, in contrast to the sequence of mean Minkowski measures which provides information on the shapes of lower dimensional sections of a convex body, provides information on the shapes of orthogonal projections of a convex body. The relations of these new invariants to the well-known Minkowski measure of asymmetry and their further applications are discussed as well.
