We study the minimization of a spectral functional made as the sum of the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian and the relative strength of a Riesz-type interaction functional. We show that when the Riesz repulsion strength is below…
In this paper we consider the minimizers of the interaction energies with the power-law interaction potentials $W({\bf x}) = \frac{|{\bf x}|^a}{a} - \frac{|{\bf x}|^b}{b}$ in $d$ dimensions. For odd $d$ with $(a,b)=(3,2-d)$ and even $d$…
We discuss a variational model, given by a weighted sum of perimeter, bending and Riesz interaction energies, that could be considered as a toy model for charged elastic drops. The different contributions have competing preferences for…

We consider some energy integrals under slow growth and we prove that the local minimizers are locally Lipschitz continuous. Many examples are given, either with subquadratic $p,q-$growth and/or anisotropic growth.
In this article, we are interested in convexity properties of the free energy for stationary point processes on $\mathbb R$ w.r.t.\ a new geometry inspired by optimal transport. We will show for a rich class of pairwise interaction energies…
We investigate a homogenization problem related to a non-local interface energy with a periodic forcing term. We show the existence of planelike minimizers for such energy. Moreover, we prove that, under suitable assumptions on the…
For compact sets in Euclidean space, Riesz energies whose exponents differ by $1$ are shown to arise as the endpoint cases of a one-parameter family of infinite-strip energies as the strip thickness increases from $0$ to $\infty$, under…
In this paper we deal with the bounded critical points of a Riesz energy of attractive-repulsive type in dimension 1. Under suitable assumptions on the growth of the kernel in the origin, we are able to prove that they are continuous inside…
We develop a theory of existence of minimizers of energy functionals in vectorial problems based on a nonlocal gradient under Dirichlet boundary conditions. The model shares many features with the peridynamics model and is also applicable…

We study a constrained minimum energy problem with an external field relative to the Riesz kernel of an arbitrary order for a generalized condenser with touching oppositely-charged plates. Conditions sufficient for the solvability of the…
We consider the nonexistence of minimizers for the energy containing a nonlocal perimeter with a general kernel $K$, a Riesz potential, and a background potential in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with $N\geq2$ under the volume constraint. We show that the…
We study minimum energy problems relative to the $\alpha$-Riesz kernel $|x-y|^{\alpha-n}$, $\alpha\in(0,2]$, over signed Radon measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geqslant3$, associated with a generalized condenser $(A_1,A_2)$, where $A_1$…
For a finite collection $\mathbf A=(A_i)_{i\in I}$ of locally closed sets in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geqslant3$, with the sign $\pm1$ prescribed such that the oppositely charged plates are mutually disjoint, we consider the minimum energy problem…
We demonstrate theoretically that one can obtain repulsive Casimir forces and stable nanolevitations by using chiral metamaterials. By extending the Lifshitz theory to treat chiral metamaterials, we find that a repulsive force and a minimum…
We present two novel models for repulsive Casimir interaction between positive perturbations. One example relies on non locality of the dielectric response and one relies on interference between (attractive) modes. Such examples are…
The existence of compactly supported global minimisers for continuum models of particles interacting through a potential is shown under almost optimal hypotheses. The main assumption on the potential is that it is catastrophic, or not…
In this paper we consider a nonlocal energy $I_\alpha$ whose kernel is obtained by adding to the Coulomb potential an anisotropic term weighted by a parameter $\alpha\in \R$. The case $\alpha=0$ corresponds to purely logarithmic…
