Characterization conjecture for LpL_p-surface area measures

Let p(0,1)p\in(0,1), and let μ\mu be a non-trivial Borel measure on Sn1\mathbb S^{n-1}. A convex body KK0nK\in\mathcal K_0^n has LpL_p-surface area measure μ\mu.

Characterization conjecture. The measure μ\mu is the LpL_p-surface area measure of a convex body KK0nK\in\mathcal K_0^n if and only if suppμ\operatorname{supp}\,\mu is not a pair of antipodal points.

This conjecture seeks to characterize the measures arising in the LpL_p-Minkowski problem for p(0,1)p\in(0,1). It is proved in the planar case n=2n=2 independently by Böröczky and Trinh and by Chen, Li, and Zhu; the status in general dimension is not established here.
