The paper deals with the theory of inner (outer) capacities on locally compact spaces with respect to general function kernels, the main emphasis being placed on the establishment of alternative characterizations of inner (outer) capacities…
In the theory of inner and outer balayage of positive Radon measures on a locally compact space $X$ to arbitrary $A\subset X$ with respect to suitable, quite general function kernels, developed in a series of the author's recent papers, we…
We study minimal energy problems for strongly singular Riesz kernels on a manifold. Based on the spatial energy of harmonic double layer potentials, we are motivated to formulate the natural regularization of such problems by switching to…
For a closed subset $K$ of a compact metric space $A$ possessing an $\alpha$-regular measure $\mu$ with $\mu(K)>0$, we prove that whenever $s>\alpha$, any sequence of weighted minimal Riesz $s$-energy configurations…
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…
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…
We consider Riesz-type nonlocal energies with general interaction kernels and their discretizations related to particle systems. We prove that the discretized energies $\Gamma$-converge in the weak-$*$ topology to the Riesz functional…
For suitable kernels on a locally compact space, we develop a theory of inner (outer) pseudo-balayage of quite general signed Radon measures (not necessarily of finite energy) onto quite general sets (not necessarily closed). Such…
Fix $d\geq 2$, and $s\in (d-1,d)$. We characterize the non-negative locally finite non-atomic Borel measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the associated $s$-Riesz transform is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$ in terms of the Wolff energy. This…
Let A be a compact set in the right-half plane and $\Gamma(A)$ the set in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ obtained by rotating A about the vertical axis. We investigate the support of the limit distribution of minimal energy point charges on $\Gamma(A)$…
Defining a condenser in a locally compact space as a locally finite, countable collection of Borel sets $A_i$, $i\in I$, with the sign $s_i=\pm1$ prescribed such that $A_i\cap A_j=\varnothing$ whenever $s_is_j=-1$, we consider a minimum…
In this paper, using the theory developed in [8], we obtain some results of a totally new type about a class of non-local problems. Here is a sample: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain, with $n\geq 4$, let $a, b,…
We consider Sobolev mappings $f\in W^{1,q}(\Omega,\IC)$, $1<q<\infty$, between planar domains $\Omega\subset \IC$. We analyse the Radon-Riesz property for convex functionals of the form \[f\mapsto \int_\Omega \Phi(|Df(z)|,J(z,f)) \; dz \]…
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…
This note concerns the problem of minimizing a certain family of non-local energy functionals over measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$, subject to a mass constraint, in a strong attraction limit. In these problems, the total energy is an integral…
Given $\Omega$ bounded open set of $\mathbb R^{n}$ and $\alpha\in \mathbb R$, let us consider \[ \mu(\Omega,\alpha)=\min_{\substack{v\in W_{0}^{1,2}(\Omega)\\v\not\equiv 0}} \frac{\displaystyle\int_{\Omega} |\nabla v|^{2}dx+\alpha…
We calculate the first order variation of the Riesz $\alpha$-energy of a log-concave function $f$ with respect to the Asplund sum. Such a variational formula induces the Riesz $\alpha$-energy measure of log-concave function $f$, which will…

We investigate the Riesz energy minimization problem on a $d$-dimensional ball in the presence of an external field created by a point charge above the ball in $\R^{d+1}$, $d\geq1$. Both cases of an attractive charge and a repulsive charge…
