Minimum Riesz energy problems in the presence of an external field are analyzed for a condenser with touching plates. We obtain sufficient and/or necessary conditions for the solvability of these problems in both the unconstrained and the constrained settings, investigate the properties of minimizers, and prove their uniqueness. Furthermore, characterization theorems in terms of variational inequalities for the weighted potentials are established. The results obtained are illustrated by several examples.

We study the constrained minimum energy problem with an external field relative to the $alpha$-Riesz kernel $|x-y|^{alpha-n}$ of order $alphain(0,n)$ for a generalized condenser $mathbf A=(A_i)_{iin I}$ in $mathbb R^n$, $ngeqslant 3$, whose oppositely charged plates intersect each other over a set of zero capacity. Conditions sufficient for the existence of minimizers are found, and their uniqueness and vague compactness are studied. Conditions obtained are shown to be sharp. We also analyze continuity of the minimizers in the vague and strong topologies when the condenser and the constraint both vary, describe the weighted equilibrium vector potentials, and single out their characteristic properties. Our arguments are based particularly on the simultaneous use of the vague topology and a suitable semimetric structure on a set of vector measures associated with $mathbf A$, and the establishment of completeness theorems for proper semimetric spaces. The results remain valid for the logarithmic kernel on $mathbb R^2$ and $mathbf A$ with compact $A_i$, $iin I$. The study is illustrated by several examples.
We study minimum energy problems relative to the $alpha$-Riesz kernel $|x-y|^{alpha-n}$, $alphain(0,2]$, over signed Radon measures $mu$ on $mathbb R^n$, $ngeqslant3$, associated with a generalized condenser $(A_1,A_2)$, where $A_1$ is a relatively closed subset of a domain $D$ and $A_2=mathbb R^nsetminus D$. We show that, though $A_2capmathrm{Cl}_{mathbb R^n}A_1$ may have nonzero capacity, this minimum energy problem is uniquely solvable (even in the presence of an external field) if we restrict ourselves to $mu$ with $mu^+leqslantxi$, where a constraint $xi$ is properly chosen. We establish the sharpness of the sufficient conditions on the solvability thus obtained, provide descriptions of the weighted $alpha$-Riesz potentials of the solutions, single out their characteristic properties, and analyze their supports. The approach developed is mainly based on the establishment of an intimate relationship between the constrained minimum $alpha$-Riesz energy problem over signed measures associated with $(A_1,A_2)$ and the constrained minimum $alpha$-Green energy problem over positive measures carried by $A_1$. The results are illustrated by examples.
For a compact $ d $-dimensional rectifiable subset of $ mathbb{R}^{p} $ we study asymptotic properties as $ Ntoinfty $ of $N$-point configurations minimizing the energy arising from a Riesz $ s $-potential $ 1/r^s $ and an external field in the hypersingular case $ sgeq d$. Formulas for the weak$ ^* $ limit of normalized counting measures of such optimal point sets and the first-order asymptotic values of minimal energy are obtained. As an application, we derive a method for generating configurations whose normalized counting measures converge to a given absolutely continuous measure supported on a rectifiable subset of $ mathbb{R}^{p} $. Results on separation and covering properties of discrete minimizers are given. Our theorems are illustrated with several numerical examples.
We investigate separation properties of $N$-point configurations that minimize discrete Riesz $s$-energy on a compact set $Asubset mathbb{R}^p$. When $A$ is a smooth $(p-1)$-dimensional manifold without boundary and $sin [p-2, p-1)$, we prove that the order of separation (as $Nto infty$) is the best possible. The same conclusions hold for the points that are a fixed positive distance from the boundary of $A$ whenever $A$ is any $p$-dimensional set. These estimates extend a result of Dahlberg for certain smooth $(p-1)$-dimensional surfaces when $s=p-2$ (the harmonic case). Furthermore, we obtain the same separation results for `greedy $s$-energy points. We deduce our results from an upper regularity property of the $s$-equilibrium measure (i.e., the measure that solves the continuous minimal Riesz $s$-energy problem), and we show that this property holds under a local smoothness assumption on the set $A$.
We study reverse triangle inequalities for Riesz potentials and their connection with polarization. This work generalizes inequalities for sup norms of products of polynomials, and reverse triangle inequalities for logarithmic potentials. The main tool used in the proofs is the representation for a power of the farthest distance function as a Riesz potential of a unit Borel measure.
