Let $Lambda$ be a lattice in ${bf R}^d$ with positive co-volume. Among $Lambda$-periodic $N$-point configurations, we consider the minimal renormalized Riesz $s$-energy $mathcal{E}_{s,Lambda}(N)$. While the dominant term in the asymptotic expansion of $mathcal{E}_{s,Lambda}(N)$ as $N$ goes to infinity in the long range case that $0<s<d$ (or $s=log$) can be obtained from classical potential theory, the next order term(s) require a different approach. Here we derive the form of the next order term or terms, namely for $s>0$ they are of the form $C_{s,d}|Lambda|^{-s/d}N^{1+s/d}$ and $-frac{2}{d}Nlog N+left(C_{log,d}-2zeta_{Lambda}(0)right)N$ where we show that the constant $C_{s,d}$ is independent of the lattice $Lambda$.

We survey known results and present estimates and conjectures for the next-order term in the asymptotics of the optimal logarithmic energy and Riesz $s$-energy of $N$ points on the unit sphere in $mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, $dgeq 1$. The conjectures are based on analytic continuation assumptions (with respect to $s$) for the coefficients in the asymptotic expansion (as $Nto infty$) of the optimal $s$-energy.
We investigate the minimal Riesz s-energy problem for positive measures on the d-dimensional unit sphere S^d in the presence of an external field induced by a point charge, and more generally by a line charge. The model interaction is that of Riesz potentials |x-y|^(-s) with d-2 <= s < d. For a given axis-supported external field, the support and the density of the corresponding extremal measure on S^d is determined. The special case s = d-2 yields interesting phenomena, which we investigate in detail. A weak* asymptotic analysis is provided as s goes to (d-2)^+.

We derive the complete asymptotic expansion in terms of powers of $N$ for the geodesic $f$-energy of $N$ equally spaced points on a rectifiable simple closed curve $Gamma$ in ${mathbb R}^p$, $pgeq2$, as $N to infty$. For $f$ decreasing and convex, such a point configuration minimizes the $f$-energy $sum_{j eq k}f(d(mathbf{x}_j, mathbf{x}_k))$, where $d$ is the geodesic distance (with respect to $Gamma$) between points on $Gamma$. Completely monotonic functions, analytic kernel functions, Laurent series, and weighted kernel functions $f$ are studied. % Of particular interest are the geodesic Riesz potential $1/d^s$ ($s eq 0$) and the geodesic logarithmic potential $log(1/d)$. By analytic continuation we deduce the expansion for all complex values of $s$.
Let $A$ be a compact $d$-rectifiable set embedded in Euclidean space $RR^p$, $dle p$. For a given continuous distribution $sigma(x)$ with respect to $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure on $A$, our earlier results provided a method for generating $N$-point configurations on $A$ that have asymptotic distribution $sigma (x)$ as $Nto infty$; moreover such configurations are quasi-uniform in the sense that the ratio of the covering radius to the separation distance is bounded independent of $N$. The method is based upon minimizing the energy of $N$ particles constrained to $A$ interacting via a weighted power law potential $w(x,y)|x-y|^{-s}$, where $s>d$ is a fixed parameter and $w(x,y)=left(sigma(x)sigma(y)right)^{-({s}/{2d})}$. Here we show that one can generate points on $A$ with the above mentioned properties keeping in the energy sums only those pairs of points that are located at a distance of at most $r_N=C_N N^{-1/d}$ from each other, with $C_N$ being a positive sequence tending to infinity arbitrarily slowly. To do this we minimize the energy with respect to a varying truncated weight $v_N(x,y)=Phi(left|x-yright|/r_N)w(x,y)$, where $Phi:(0,infty)to [0,infty)$ is a bounded function with $Phi(t)=0$, $tgeq 1$, and $lim_{tto 0^+}Phi(t)=1$. This reduces, under appropriate assumptions, the complexity of generating $N$ point `low energy discretizations to order $N C_N^d$ computations.
We consider periodic energy problems in Euclidean space with a special emphasis on long-range potentials that cannot be defined through the usual infinite sum. One of our main results builds on more recent developments of Ewald summation to define the periodic energy corresponding to a large class of long-range potentials. Two particularly interesting examples are the logarithmic potential and the Riesz potential when the Riesz parameter is smaller than the dimension of the space. For these examples, we use analytic continuation methods to provide concise formulas for the periodic kernel in terms of the Epstein Hurwitz Zeta function. We apply our energy definition to deduce several properties of the minimal energy including the asymptotic order of growth and the distribution of points in energy minimizing configurations as the number of points becomes large. We conclude with some detailed calculations in the case of one dimension, which shows the utility of this approach.
