Generalized intersection bodies are not equivalent

In [A. Koldobsky, A functional analytic approach to intersection bodies, Geom. Funct. Anal. 10 (2000) 1507–1526], A. Koldobsky asked whether two types of generalizations of the notion of an intersection body are in fact equivalent. The structures of these two types of generalized intersection bodies have been studied by the author in [E. Milman, Generalized intersection bodies, J. Funct. Anal. 240 (2) (2006) 530–567], providing substantial evidence for a positive answer to this question. The purpose of this note is to construct a counter-example, which provides a surprising negative answer to this question in a strong sense. This implies the existence of non-trivial non-negative functions in the range of the spherical Radon transform, and the existence of non-trivial spaces which embed in Lp for certain negative values of p.
