    • Mesh Ratios for Best-Packing and Limits of Minimal Energy Configurations 

      [OWP-2013-13] Bondarenko, A. V.; Hardin, Douglas P.; Saff, Edward B. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2013-06-10)
      For $N$-point best-packing configurations $\omega_N$ on a compact metric space $(A, \rho)$, we obtain estimates for the mesh-separation ratio $\gamma(\rho_N , A)$, which is the quotient of the covering radius of $\omega_N$ ...

    • Minimal Riesz energy on the sphere for axis-supported external fields 

      [OWP-2009-04] Brauchart, Johann S.; Dragnev, Peter D.; Saff, Edward B. (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)
      Abstract. We investigate the minimal Riesz $s$-energy problem for positive measures on the d-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ in the presence of an external field induced by a point charge, and more generally by ...
