Abstract
We study a prescribing functions problem of a conformally invariant integral equation involving Poisson kernel on the unit ball. This integral equation is not the dual of any standard type of PDE. As in Nirenberg problem, there exists a Kazdan–Warner type obstruction to existence of solutions. We prove existence in the antipodal symmetry functions class.
