Isometry invariant valuations on spherical polytopes
We show that every continuous and isometry invariant valuation on spherical polytopes is a linear combination of the spherical intrinsic volumes. The proof relies on a weak differentiability property satisfied by valuations on polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with a natural smoothness property with respect to the action of the affine group. This enables us to transfer several results established by Alesker for quasi-smooth valuations to the polytopal setting, and to reduce the problem to the translation invariant case of measurable valuations on polytopes.
