Abstract
The decomposition of the space of continuous and translation-invariant valuations into a sum of SO(n) irreducible subspaces is obtained. A reformulation of this result in terms of a Hadwiger-type theorem for continuous translation-invariant and SO(n)-equivariant tensor valuations is also given. As an application, symmetry properties of rigid-motion invariant and homogeneous bivaluations are established and then used to prove new inequalities of Brunn-Minkowski type for convex body valued valuations.
