We derive and investigate lower bounds for the potential energy of finite spherical point sets (spherical codes). Our bounds are optimal in the following sense -- they cannot be improved by employing polynomials of the same or lower degrees…

When nonlinear measures are estimated from sampled temporal signals with finite-length, a radius parameter must be carefully selected to avoid a poor estimation. These measures are generally derived from the correlation integral which…
