Observations suggest that configurations of points on a sphere that are stable with respect to a Riesz potential distribute points uniformly over the sphere. Further, these stable configurations have a local structure that is largely hexagonal. Minimal configurations differ from stable configurations in the arrangement of defects within the hexagonal structure. This paper reports the asymptotic difference between the average energy of stable states and the lowest reported energies. We use this to infer the energy scale at which defects in the hexagonal structure are manifest. We report results for the Riesz potentials for s=0, s=1, s=2 and s=3. Additionally we compare existing theory for the asymptotic expansion in N of the minimal $N$-point energy with experimental results. We report a case of two distinct stable states that have the same Voronoi structure. Finally, we report the observed growth of the number of stable states as a function of N.

There are many ways to generate a set of nodes on the sphere for use in a variety of problems in numerical analysis. We present a survey of quickly generated point sets on $mathbb{S}^2$, examine their equidistribution properties, separation, covering
, and mesh ratio constants and present a new point set, equal area icosahedral points, with low mesh ratio. We analyze numerically the leading order asymptotics for the Riesz and logarithmic potential energy for these configurations with total points $N<50,000$ and present some new conjectures.
For $N$-point best-packing configurations $omega_N$ on a compact metric space $(A,rho)$, we obtain estimates for the mesh-separation ratio $gamma(omega_N,A)$, which is the quotient of the covering radius of $omega_N$ relative to $A$ and the minimum p
airwise distance between points in $omega_N$. For best-packing configurations $omega_N$ that arise as limits of minimal Riesz $s$-energy configurations as $sto infty$, we prove that $gamma(omega_N,A)le 1$ and this bound can be attained even for the sphere. In the particular case when N=5 on $S^2$ with $rho$ the Euclidean metric, we prove our main result that among the infinitely many 5-point best-packing configurations there is a unique configuration, namely a square-base pyramid $omega_5^*$, that is the limit (as $sto infty$) of 5-point $s$-energy minimizing configurations. Moreover, $gamma(omega_5^*,S^2)=1$.
Utilizing frameworks developed by Delsarte, Yudin and Levenshtein, we deduce linear programming lower bounds (as $Nto infty$) for the Riesz energy of $N$-point configurations on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere in the so-called hypersingular case; i.e
, for non-integrable Riesz kernels of the form $|x-y|^{-s}$ with $s>d.$ As a consequence, we immediately get (thanks to the Poppy-seed bagel theorem) lower estimates for the large $N$ limits of minimal hypersingular Riesz energy on compact $d$-rectifiable sets. Furthermore, for the Gaussian potential $exp(-alpha|x-y|^2)$ on $mathbb{R}^p,$ we obtain lower bounds for the energy of infinite configurations having a prescribed density.
Combining the ideas of Riesz $s$-energy and $log$-energy, we introduce the so-called $s,log^t$-energy. In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behaviors for $N,t$ fixed and $s$ varying of minimal $N$-point $s,log^t$-energy constants and configur
ations of an infinite compact metric space of diameter less than $1$. In particular, we study certain continuity and differentiability properties of minimal $N$-point $s,log^t$-energy constants in the variable $s$ and we show that in the limits as $srightarrow infty$ and as $srightarrow s_0>0,$ minimal $N$-point $s,log^t$-energy configurations tend to an $N$-point best-packing configuration and a minimal $N$-point $s_0,log^t$-energy configuration, respectively. Furthermore, the optimality of $N$ distinct equally spaced points on circles in $mathbb{R}^2$ for some certain $s,log^t$ energy problems was proved.
In terms of the minimal $N$-point diameter $D_d(N)$ for $R^d,$ we determine, for a class of continuous real-valued functions $f$ on $[0,+infty],$ the $N$-point $f$-best-packing constant $min{f(|x-y|), :, x,yin R^d}$, where the minimum is taken over p
oint sets of cardinality $N.$ We also show that $$ N^{1/d}Delta_d^{-1/d}-2le D_d(N)le N^{1/d}Delta_d^{-1/d}, quad Nge 2,$$ where $Delta_d$ is the maximal sphere packing density in $R^d$. Further, we provide asymptotic estimates for the $f$-best-packing constants as $Ntoinfty$.
