We study properties of the $\alpha$-Green kernel $g_D^\alpha$ of order $0<\alpha\leqslant2$ for a domain $D\subset\mathbb R^n$, $n\geqslant3$. This kernel is associated with the $\alpha$-Riesz kernel $|x-y|^{\alpha-n}$, $x,y\in\mathbb R^n$,…
Focusing first on the inner $\alpha$-harmonic measure $\varepsilon_y^A$ ($\varepsilon_y$ being the unit Dirac measure, and $\mu^A$ the inner $\alpha$-Riesz balayage of a Radon measure $\mu$ to $A\subset\mathbb R^n$ arbitrary), we describe…
Let $A$ be a compact set in ${\mathbb R}^p$ of Hausdorff dimension $d$. For $s\in(0,d)$, the Riesz $s$-equilibrium measure $\mu^s$ is the unique Borel probability measure with support in $A$ that minimizes $$…

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…
Our main result shows that if a lower-semicontinuous kernel K satisfies some mild additional hypotheses, then asympotitically polarization optimal configurations are precisely those that are asymptotically distributed according to the…
In this paper we elaborate on the interplay between energy optimization, positive definiteness, and discrepancy. In particular, assuming the existence of a $K$-invariant measure $\mu$ with full support, we show that conditional positive…
