We give two precise estimates for the Green energy of a discrete charge, concentrated in the points on the circles, with respect to the concentric rotation domain in the d-dimensional Euclidean space, d>2.The proof is based on the…
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…
In this paper we explore the connections between minimizers of the discrete logarithmic energy on the 2-dimensional sphere, univariate polynomials with optimal condition number in the Shub-Smale sense and a quotient involving norms of…
In this short note, we employ well-known results to improve the lower bound for the constant associated with the linear term in the asymptotic expansion of the minimal logarithmic energy on the sphere.
We have performed a detailed exploration of the energy landscape for configurations of points on the sphere, interacting via the logarithmic potential, and corresponding to local minima of the total energy, up to $N = 160$. The growth of…
Linear programming (polynomial) techniques are used to obtain lower and upper bounds for the potential energy of spherical designs. This approach gives unified bounds that are valid for a large class of potential functions. Our lower bounds…
We consider minimising $p$-harmonic maps from three-dimensional domains to the real projective plane, for $1<p<2$. These maps arise as least-energy configurations in variational models for nematic liquid crystals. We show that the singular…
We derive upper bounds for the potential energy of spherical designs of cardinality close to the Delsarte-Goethals-Seidel bound. These bounds are obtained by linear programming with the use of the Hermite interpolating polynomial of the…
We use linear programming techniques to find points of absolute minimum over the unit sphere $S^{d}$ in $\mathbb R^{d+1}$ of the total potential of a point configuration $\omega_N\subset S^{d}$ which is a spherical $(2m-1)$-design contained…
We demonstrate existence of topologically nontrivial energy minimizing maps of a given positive degree from bounded domains in the plane to $\mathbb S^2$ in a variational model describing magnetizations in ultrathin ferromagnetic films with…
Let $n\geq 3$ and let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a $\mathcal{C}^1$ bounded domain which is diffeomorphic to a ball. We investigate here the problem of finding critical points of the $n$-energy in the space $\mathcal{I}=\{v\in…
In this article we study point configurations minimizing the discrete energy on a compact Riemannian manifold, where the energy kernel is taken to be the Green's function for the Laplacian. We show that every point in a minimizing…
We prove lower bounds for energy functionals of mappings from real, complex and quaternionic projective spaces to Riemannian manifolds. For real and complex projective spaces, these lower bounds are sharp, and we characterize the family of…
We consider the minimal discrete and continuous energy problems on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ in the presence of an external field due to finitely many localized charge distributions on…
We consider the Coulomb gas of $N$ particles on the sphere and show that the logarithmic energy of the configurations approaches the minimal energy up to an error of order $\log N$, with exponentially high probability and on average,…
Motivated by the recently observed phenomenon of topology trivialization of potential energy landscapes (PELs) for several statistical mechanics models, we perform a numerical study of the finite size $2$-spin spherical model using both…
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 $N=d+2$…
This article is divided in two parts. In the first part we review some recent results concerning the expected number of real roots of random system of polynomial equations. In the second part we deal with a different problem, namely, the…
Three-point semidefinite programming bounds are one of the most powerful known tools for bounding the size of spherical codes. In this paper, we use them to prove lower bounds for the potential energy of particles interacting via a pair…
We consider the spherical limit of multi-matrix models on regular target graphs, for instance single or multiple Potts models, or lattices of arbitrary dimension. We show, to all orders in the low temperature expansion, that when the degree…
