Abstract

The Minkowski problem for torsional rigidity (22-torsional rigidity) was firstly studied by Colesanti and Fimiani \cite{CA} using variational method. Moreover, Hu \cite{HJ00} also studied this problem by the method of curvature flows and obtained the existence of smooth even solutions. In addition, the smooth non-even solutions to the Orlicz Minkowski problem w.r.tw. r. t qq-torsional rigidity were given by Zhao et al. \cite{ZX} through a Gauss curvature flow. The dual curvature measure and the dual Minkowski problem were first posed and considered by Huang, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang in \cite{HY}. The dual Minkowski problem is a very important problem, which has greatly contributed to the development of the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory and extended the other types dual Minkowski problem. To the best of our knowledge, the dual Minkowski problem w.r.tw. r. t (qq) torsional rigidity is still open because the dual (qq) torsional measure is blank. Thus, it is a natural problem to consider the dual Minkowski problem for (qq) torsional rigidity. In this paper, we introduce the pp-th dual qq-torsional measure and propose the pp-th dual Minkowski problem for qq-torsional rigidity with q>1q>1. Then we confirm the existence of smooth even solutions for p<np<n (p0p\neq 0) to the pp-th dual Minkowski problem for qq-torsional rigidity by method of a Gauss curvature flow. Specially, we also obtain the smooth non-even solutions with p<0p<0 to this problem.
