We revisit a unified methodology for the iterative solution of nonlinear equations in Hilbert spaces. Our key observation is that the general approach from [Heid & Wihler, Math. Comp. 89 (2020), Calcolo 57 (2020)] satisfies an energy…

Building on work of Mondino-Scharrer, we show that among closed, smoothly embedded surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of genus $g$ and given isoperimetric ratio $v$, there exists one with minimum bending energy $\mathcal{W}$. We do this by gluing…

Minimization problems with respect to a one-parameter family of generalized relative entropies are studied. These relative entropies, which we term relative $\alpha$-entropies (denoted $\mathscr{I}_{\alpha}$), arise as redundancies under…

We consider problems related to the asymptotic minimization of eigenvalues of anisotropic harmonic oscillators in the plane. In particular we study Riesz means of the eigenvalues and the trace of the corresponding heat kernels. The…

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 investigate the thermodynamic limit of the circular long-range Riesz gas, a system of particles interacting pairwise through an inverse power kernel. We show that after rescaling, so that the typical spacing of particles is of order $1$,…

We have studied the configurations of minimal energy of $N$ charges on a curve on the plane, interacting with a repulsive potential $V_{ij} = 1/r_{ij}^s$, with $s \geq 1$ and $i,j=1,\dots, N$. Among the examples considered are ellipses of…

We propose a new formalism to analyse the extremum structure of scale-invariant effective potentials. The problem is stated in a compact matrix form, used to derive general expressions for the stationary point equation and the mass matrix…

We consider the Calder\'on-Zygmund kernels $K_ {\alpha,n}(x)=(x_i^{2n-1}/|x|^{2n-1+\alpha})_{i=1}^d$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $0<\alpha\leq 1$ and $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We show that, on the plane, for $0<\alpha<1$, the capacity associated to the…

Let $M$ be a compact, orientable, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold, $n\geq2$, and let $F$ be the energy functional acting on the space $\Xi (M)$ of $C^{\infty }$ vector fields of $M$, \[ F(X):=\frac{\int_{M}\left\Vert \nabla X\right\Vert…
