Abstract
In this paper, we study the prescribed -th Weingarten curvature problem for convex capillary hypersurfaces in . This problem naturally extends the prescribed -th Weingarten curvature problem for closed convex hypersurfaces, previously investigated by Guan-Guan in [19], to the capillary setting. We reformulate the problem as the solvability of a Hessian quotient equation with a Robin boundary condition on a spherical cap. Under a natural sufficient condition, we establish the existence of a strictly convex capillary hypersurface with the prescribed -th Weingarten curvature. This also extends our recent work on the capillary Minkowski problem in [40].
