XVII.—Invariant Matrices and the Geometry of Numbers

Synopsis

With every matrix representation of the (real) full linear group can be associated a multi-linear mapping of one affine space, Rn, into another, RN. This mapping is studied from the viewpoint of the geometry of numbers of convex bodies, and a general arithmetical property of such mappings is proved. The result generalizes my recent work on compound convex bodies.
