We investigate minimum weak $\alpha$-Riesz energy problems with external fields in both the unconstrained and constrained settings for generalized condensers $(A_1,A_2)$ such that the closures of $A_1$ and $A_2$ in $\mathbb R^n$ are allowed…
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…
Minimum Riesz energy problems in the presence of an external field are analyzed for a condenser with touching plates. We obtain sufficient and/or necessary conditions for the solvability of these problems in both the unconstrained and the…
We study the Dirichlet energy of non-negative radially symmetric critical points $u_\mu$ of the Moser-Trudinger inequality on the unit disc in $\mathbb{R}^2$, and prove that it expands as $$4\pi+\frac{4\pi}{\mu^{4}}+o(\mu^{-4})\le…
We study probability measures that minimize the Riesz energy with respect to the geodesic distance $\vartheta (x,y)$ on projective spaces $\mathbb{FP}^d$ (such energies arise from the 1959 conjecture of Fejes T\'oth about sums of non-obtuse…
The purpose of this work is twofold. First, we aim to extend for $0<s<1$ the results of one of the authors about equilibrium measures in the real axis in external fields created by point-mass charges for the case of logarithmic potentials…
The aim of this note is to provide a full space quadratic external field extension of a classical result of Marcel Riesz for the equilibrium measure on a ball with respect to Riesz s-kernels. We address the case s=d-3 for arbitrary…
In this paper, we deal with an obstacle placement problem inside a disk, that can be formulated as an energy minimization problem with respect to the rotations of the obstacle about its center, with respect to the translations of the…
We consider a constrained minimal energy problem with an external field over noncompact classes of infinite dimensional vector measures on a locally compact space. The components are positive measures (charges) that are constrained from…
We study systems of $n$ points in the Euclidean space of dimension $d \ge 1$ interacting via a Riesz kernel $|x|^{-s}$ and confined by an external potential, in the regime where $d-2\le s<d$. We also treat the case of logarithmic…
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…
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 consider periodic energy problems in Euclidean space with a special emphasis on long-range potentials that cannot be defined through the usual infinite sum. One of our main results builds on more recent developments of Ewald summation to…

We use moment techniques to construct a converging hierarchy of optimization problems to lower bound the ground state energy of interacting particle systems. We approximate (from below) the infinite dimensional optimization problems in this…
This is the first part of a series of papers deriving the precise, late-time behaviour and (in)stability properties of charged scalar fields on near-extremal Reissner--Nordstr\"om spacetimes via energy estimates. In this paper, we establish…

Given a set ${\cal D}$ of unit disks in the Euclidean plane, we consider (i) the {\it discrete unit disk cover} (DUDC) problem and (ii) the {\it rectangular region cover} (RRC) problem. In the DUDC problem, for a given set ${\cal P}$ of…
Let $A_1$ and $A_2$ be two circular annuli and let $\rho$ be a radial metric defined in the annuli $A_2$. We study the existence and uniqueness of the extremal problem for weighted combined energy between $A_1$ and $A_2$, and obtain that…
We prove the linear stability of subextremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetimes as solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equation. We make use of a novel representation of gauge-invariant quantities which satisfy a symmetric system of coupled wave…
