If $M$ is a manifold, $x∈M$ and $d(x,ω)=\inf\{t>0:x+tω∈M\}$, does the pushforward of the solid angle measure under $S^2∋ω↦x+d(x,ω)ω$ admit a density?
Let $S^2$ denote the unit 2-sphere, $M$ be a 2-dimensional oriented embedded $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ with $$d_M(x,\omega):=\inf\left\{t>0:x+t\omega\in M\right\}<\infty\;\;\;\text{for ...
