Abstract

Let AA be a compact set in Rp{\mathbb R}^p of Hausdorff dimension dd. For s(0,d)s\in(0,d), the Riesz ss-equilibrium measure μs\mu^s is the unique Borel probability measure with support in AA that minimizes Is(μ):=1xysdμ(y)dμ(x) I_s(\mu):=\iint\frac{1}{|x-y|^s}d\mu(y)d\mu(x) over all such probability measures. If AA is strongly (Hd,d)({\mathcal H}^d, d)-rectifiable, then μs\mu^s converges in the weak-star topology to normalized dd-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to AA as ss approaches dd from below.
