In this paper we study the L p-Minkowski problem for p=鈭n鈭1, which corresponds to the critical exponent in the Blaschke鈥揝antalo inequality. We first obtain volume estimates for general solutions, then establish a priori estimates for rotationally symmetric solutions by using a Kazdan鈥揥arner type obstruction. Finally we give sufficient conditions for the existence of rotationally symmetric solutions by a blow-up analysis. We also include an existence result for the L p-Minkowski problem which corresponds to the super-critical case of the Blaschke鈥揝antalo inequality.
