A flow approach to the Minkowski problem
arXiv:1205.6455
Abstract
We prove that the set of smooth, -periodic, positive functions on the unit circle for which the Minkowski problem is solvable is dense in the set of all smooth, -periodic, positive functions on the unit circle with respect to the norm. Furthermore, we obtain a necessary condition on the solvability of the even Minkowski problem. At the end, we prove uniqueness of the solutions up to an affine linear transformation.
