Spherical average of $\frac{1}{x}$
Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be points on $\mathbb S^1.$
We then define the expectation value $E(X)=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n X_i.$
Let $\frac{dS(X_1)}{2\pi}$ be the normalized surface measure of $\mathbb S^1,$ i....

Relate the solid angle and surface measure of a surface
Let $M$ be a 2-dimensional embedded $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ with a global chart$^1$ $(U,\phi)$. If $u\in U$ and $x=\phi^{-1}(u)$, let $\nu_M(x)$ denote the unique unit normal vector of $M$ ...
