Prescribed $L_p$ quotient curvature problem and related eigenvalue problem

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the existence of admissible (and strictly convex) smooth solutions to the prescribed $L_p$ quotient type curvature problem with $p>1$. For cases where $p=k-l+1$ and $p>k-l+1$, we obtain an admissible solution without any additional conditions, which is strictly spherically convex under a convexity condition. Under the same convexity condition, we establish the existence of a strictly spherically convex solution for the case $p<k-l+1$, provided that the prescribed function is even, a condition known to be necessary.
