We prove that the conjectured capillary Blaschke-Santal\'o inequality holds for any unconditional, strictly convex capillary hypersurface when $\theta \in \left(0, \tfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$. Moreover, for $\theta \in \left(\tfrac{\pi}{2},…

This paper is about hypersurfaces with boundary lying in the Euclidean unit ball, which meet the unit sphere at a fixed angle $\theta\in(0,\frac{\pi}{2}]$. Such hypersurfaces are called $\theta$-capillary hypersurfaces and for those we…

The result of Guan and Ma (Invent. Math. 151 (2003)) states that if $\phi^{-1/k} : \mathbb{S}^n \to (0,\infty)$ is spherically convex, then $\phi$ arises as the $\sigma_k$ curvature (the $k$-th elementary symmetric function of the principal…
