For the unit sphere S^d in Euclidean space R^(d+1), we show that for d-1<s<d and any N>1, discrete N-point minimal Riesz s-energy configurations are well separated in the sense that the minimal distance between any pair of distinct points…
The Riesz $s$-energy of an $N$-point configuration in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{p}$ is defined as the sum of reciprocal $s$-powers of all mutual distances in this system. In the limit $s\to0$ the Riesz $s$-potential $1/r^s$ ($r$ the…
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…
The Riesz $z$-energy of a manifold $X$ is the integration of the distance between two points to the power $z$ over the product space $X\times X$. Considered as a function of a complex variable $z$, it can be generalized to a meromorphic…
We show that the regularized Riesz $\a$-energy for closed submanifolds $M$ in $\RR^n$ blows up as $M$ degenerates to have double points if $\a\le-2\dim M$. This gives theoretical foundation of numerical experiments to evolve surfaces to…

We study measures and point configurations optimizing energies based on multivariate potentials. The emphasis is put on potentials defined by geometric characteristics of sets of points, which serve as multi-input generalizations of the…
For a compact set A in Euclidean space we consider the asymptotic behavior of optimal (and near optimal) N-point configurations that minimize the Riesz s-energy (corresponding to the potential 1/t^s) over all N-point subsets of A, where…
In this paper, we prove some exact estimates for the discrete Neumann energy of a ball and a circular ring in Euclidean space for points located on circles. The proofs are based on dissymmetrization and analysis of the asymptotic behavior…
We study a capacity theory based on a definition of a Riesz potential in metric spaces with a doubling measure. In this general setting, we study the basic properties of the Riesz capacity, including monotonicity, countable subadditivity…
An $r^{\an}$-center of a compact body $\Om$ in an $n$ dimensional Euclidean space is a point that gives an extremal value of the regularized Riesz potential, which is the (Hadamard regularization of) integration on $\Om$ of the distance…
The purpose of this paper is threefold. First the natural extension of Riesz potentials to the context of quasi metric measure spaces for the class of upper doubling measures are studied on Lebesgue spaces, obtaining necessary and…
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…
