Even LpL_p-Minkowski uniqueness conjecture

Let hh be the support function of an origin-symmetric convex body in Rn+1\mathbb{R}^{n+1}, let ff be a positive even smooth function on SnS^n, and let 2h+hId\nabla^2h+h\operatorname{Id} denote the spherical Hessian matrix.

Even LpL_p-Minkowski uniqueness conjecture. For p[0,1)p\in[0,1), the Monge–Ampère equation

h1pdet(2h+hId)=fh^{1-p}\det(\nabla^2h+h\operatorname{Id})=f

has a unique even solution.

This is the uniqueness form of the even LpL_p-Minkowski problem and is equivalent to the even LpL_p Brunn–Minkowski inequalities. The source describes uniqueness for 0p<10\leq p<1 as a major unresolved problem.
