In this paper we introduce a model for hard spheres interacting through attractive Riesz type potentials, and we study its thermodynamic limit. We show that the tail energy enforces optimal packing and round macroscopic shapes.

In this paper we study the $s$-dimensional Riesz transform of a finite measure $\mu$ in $\mathbf{R}^d$, with $s\in (d-1,d)$. We show that the boundedness of the Riesz transform of $\mu$ implies that a nonlinear potential of exponential type…

The paper deals with minimum energy problems in the presence of external fields on a locally compact space $X$ with respect to a function kernel $\kappa$ satisfying the energy and consistency principles. For quite a general (not necessarily…

We study minimal energy problems for strongly singular Riesz kernels on a manifold. Based on the spatial energy of harmonic double layer potentials, we are motivated to formulate the natural regularization of such problems by switching to…

We study sets of $N$ points on the $d-$dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ minimizing interaction functionals of the type \[ \sum_{i, j =1 \atop i \neq j}^{N}{ f(x_i - x_j)}. \] The main result states that for a class of functions $f$ that…

For the Riesz kernel $\kappa_\alpha(x,y):=|x-y|^{\alpha-n}$ on $\mathbb R^n$, where $n\geqslant2$, $\alpha\in(0,2]$, and $\alpha<n$, we consider the problem of minimizing the Gauss functional…

For compact sets in Euclidean space, Riesz energies whose exponents differ by $1$ are shown to arise as the endpoint cases of a one-parameter family of infinite-strip energies as the strip thickness increases from $0$ to $\infty$, under…

We investigate separation properties of $N$-point configurations that minimize discrete Riesz $s$-energy on a compact set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^p$. When $A$ is a smooth $(p-1)$-dimensional manifold without boundary and $s\in [p-2, p-1)$, we…

We find upper bounds for the spherical cap discrepancy of the set of minimizers of the Riesz $s$-energy on the sphere $\mathbb S^d.$ Our results are based in bounds for a Sobolev discrepancy introduced by Thomas Wolff in an unpublished…

This survey discusses recent developments in the context of spherical designs and minimal energy point configurations on spheres. The recent solution of the long standing problem of the existence of spherical $t$-designs on $\mathbb{S}^d$…

In the present paper we study the minimization of energy integrals on the sphere with a focus on an interesting clustering phenomenon: for certain types of potentials, optimal measures are discrete or are supported on small sets. In…

Fix $d\geq 2$, and $s\in (d-1,d)$. We characterize the non-negative locally finite non-atomic Borel measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the associated $s$-Riesz transform is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$ in terms of the Wolff energy. This…

For $s\geqslant d$, we obtain the leading term as $N\to \infty$ of the maximal weighted $N$-point Riesz $s$-polarization (or Chebyshev constant) for a certain class of $d$-rectifiable compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^p$. This class includes…

In this paper we find asymptotic equalities for the discrete logarithmic energy of sequences of well separated spherical $t$-designs on the unit sphere ${\mathbb{S}^{d}\subset\mathbb{R}^{d+1}}$, $d\geq2$. Also we establish exact order…

We consider the minimization of an energy functional given by the sum of a crystalline perimeter and a nonlocal interaction of Riesz type, under volume constraint. We show that, in the small mass regime, if the Wulff shape of the…

The Schr\"odinger equation for a charged particle in the field of a nonrelativistic electric quadrupole in two dimensions is known to be separable in spherical coordinates. We investigate the occurrence of bound states of negative energy…

We consider the mean-field limit of systems of particles with singular interactions of the type $-\log|x|$ or $|x|^{-s}$, with $0< s<d-2$, and with an additive noise in dimensions $d \geq 3$. We use a modulated-energy approach to prove a…

We study the Riesz and logarithmic energies on the Grassmannian $\operatorname{Gr}_{2,4}$ of $2$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^4$. We prove that the continuous Riesz and logarithmic energies are uniquely minimized by the uniform…

In this note, we study both the Riesz and reverse Riesz transforms on broken line. This model can be described by $(-\infty, -1] \cup [1,\infty)$ equipped with the measure $d\mu = |r|^{d_{1}-1}dr$ for $r \le -1$ and $d\mu = r^{d_{2}-1}dr$…
