In the present paper we develop the theory of minimization for energies with multivariate kernels, i.e. energies, in which pairwise interactions are replaced by interactions between triples or, more generally, $n$-tuples of particles. Such…

We consider Riesz energy problems with radial external fields. We study the question of whether or not the equilibrium is the uniform distribution on a sphere. We develop general necessary as well as general sufficient conditions on the…

Given a closed submanifold, or a compact regular domain, in euclidean space, we consider the Riesz energy defined as the double integral of some power of the distance between pairs of points. When this integral diverges, we compare two…
