This paper investigates the existence and qualitative properties of minimizers for a class of nonlocal micromagnetic energy functionals defined on bounded domains. The considered energy functional consists of a symmetric exchange…
It is a well-known conjecture in $\beta$-models and in their discrete counterpart that, generically, external potentials should be ``off-critical'' (or, equivalently, ``regular''). Exploiting the connection between minimizing measures and…
Self-gravitating horizonless ultra-compact objects that possess light rings have attracted the attention of physicists and mathematicians in recent years. In the present compact paper we raise the following physically interesting question:…

In this paper, we investigate Riesz energy problems on unbounded conductors in $\R^d$ in the presence of general external fields $Q$, not necessarily satisfying the growth condition $Q(x)\to\infty$ as $x\to\infty$ assumed in several…
The aim of this paper is to provide a complete analysis of the Coulomb equilibrium problem in the euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq2$, associated to the kernel $1/|x|^{d-2}$, with a non-convex external field created by an…
We establish an energy quantization for constrained Willmore surfaces, where the constraints are given by area, volume, and total mean curvature, assuming that the underlying conformal structures remain bounded. Furthermore, we show strong…
Strictly proper kernel scores are well-known tool in probabilistic forecasting, while characteristic kernels have been extensively investigated in the machine learning literature. We first show that both notions coincide, so that insights…
This is a potential theoretic study of balayage (sweeping) of a positive Radon measure on a locally compact (Hausdorff) space onto a closed, or more generally a quasiclosed set (that is, a set which can be approximated in outer capacity by…
Positivity bounds - constraints on any low-energy effective field theory imposed by the fundamental axioms of unitarity, causality and locality in the UV - have recently been used to constrain scalar-tensor theories of dark energy. However,…
Model misspecification can create significant challenges for the implementation of probabilistic models, and this has led to development of a range of robust methods which directly account for this issue. However, whether these more…
The paper studies strictly positive definite kernels on compact Riemannian manifolds. We state new conditions to ensure strict positive definiteness for general kernels and kernels with certain convolutional structure. We also state…
In this paper we deal with the existence, regularity and Beltrami field property of magnetic energy minimisers under a helicity constraint. We in particular tackle the problem of characterising local as well as global minimisers of the…
The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem, a cornerstone of electronic density functional theory, concerns uniqueness of external potentials yielding given ground densities of an ${\mathcal N}$-body system. The problem is rigorously explored in a universe…
We investigate the properties of certain elliptic systems leading, a~priori, to solutions that belong to the space of Radon measures. We show that if the problem is equipped with a so-called asymptotic Uhlenbeck structure, then the solution…
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…
The problem of establishing out-of-sample bounds for the values of an unkonwn ground-truth function is considered. Kernels and their associated Hilbert spaces are the main formalism employed herein along with an observational model where…

We establish lower semi-continuity and strict convexity of the energy functionals for a large class of vector equilibrium problems in logarithmic potential theory. This in particular implies the existence and uniqueness of a minimizer for…
