We consider the minimal energy problem on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ in the presence of an external field $Q$, where the energy arises from the Riesz potential $1/r^s$ (where $r$ is the…

We define a determinantal point process on the complex projective space that reduces to the so-called spherical ensemble for complex dimension 1 under identification of the 2-sphere with the Riemann sphere. Through this determinantal point…

Given a compact $d$-rectifiable set $A$ embedded in Euclidean space and a distribution $\rho(x)$ with respect to $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure on $A$, we address the following question: how can one generate optimal configurations of $N$…

On a smooth compact connected $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$, if $0 < s < d$ then an asymptotically equidistributed sequence of finite subsets of $M$ that is also well-separated yields a sequence of Riesz $s$-energies that…

A celebrated result of Legendre and Gauss determines which integers can be represented as a sum of three squares, and for those it is typically the case that there are many ways of doing so. These different representations give collections…

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…

We study the asymptotic equidistribution of points near arbitrary compact sets of positive capacity in $\R^d,\ d\ge 2$. Our main tools are the energy estimates for Riesz potentials. We also consider the quantitative aspects of this…

In this paper we prove the conjecture of Korevaar and Meyers: for each $N\ge c_dt^d$ there exists a spherical $t$-design in the sphere $S^d$ consisting of $N$ points, where $c_d$ is a constant depending only on $d$.

Spherical $t$-designs on $\mathbb{S}^{d}\subset\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ provide $N$ nodes for an equal weight numerical integration rule which is exact for all spherical polynomials of degree at most $t$. This paper considers the generation of…

In this article we consider the distribution of $N$ points on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ interacting via logarithmic potential. A characterization theorem of the stationary configurations is derived when $N=d+2$…

We establish upper and lower universal bounds for potentials of weighted designs on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ that depend only on quadrature nodes and weights derived from the design structure. Our bounds hold for a large class of…

We find upper bounds for the spherical cap discrepancy of the set of minimizers of the Riesz $s$-energy on the sphere $\mathbb S^d.$ Our results are based in bounds for a Sobolev discrepancy introduced by Thomas Wolff in an unpublished…

We asymptotically estimate the variance of the number of lattice points in a thin, randomly rotated annulus lying on the surface of the sphere. This partially resolves a conjecture of Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak. We also obtain estimates…

We study energy integrals and discrete energies on the sphere, in particular, analogs of the Riesz energy with the geodesic distance in place of Euclidean, and observe that the range of exponents for which the uniform distribution optimizes…

We use moment techniques to construct a converging hierarchy of optimization problems to lower bound the ground state energy of interacting particle systems. We approximate (from below) the infinite dimensional optimization problems in this…

We study the asymptotic equidistribution of points with discrete energy close to Robin's constant of a compact set in the plane. Our main tools are the energy estimates from potential theory. We also consider the quantitative aspects of…

We demonstrate a set A and a value of s for which the sequence of N-point discrete minimal Riesz s-energy configurations on A does not have an asymptotic distribution in the weak-star sense as N tends to infinity.

We consider two related problems: the first is the minimization of the "Coulomb renormalized energy" of Sandier-Serfaty, which corresponds to the total Coulomb interaction of point charges in a uniform neutralizing background (or rather…

It is shown that the supports of measures minimizing weakly repulsive energies on Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvature bounded below do not have concentration points. This extends the results of Bj\"orck and Carrillo, Figalli, and…

We consider the extremal pointset configuration problem of maximizing a kernel-based energy subject to the geometric constraints that the points are contained in a fixed set, the pairwise distances are bounded below, and that every closed…
