This is an announcement for the paper "GL(n) contravariant Minkowski valuations" by Franz E. Schuster and Thomas Wannerer.

Abstract: A complete classification of all continuous GL(n) contravariant Minkowski valuations is established. As an application we present a family of sharp isoperimetric inequalities for such valuations which generalize the classical Petty projection inequality.
