Renormalized energy and asymptotic expansion of optimal logarithmic energy on the sphere

We study the Hamiltonian of a two-dimensional log-gas with a confining potential V satisfying the weak growth assumption. Finally, we prove the equivalence between the conjecture of Brauchart Brauchart, Hardin and Saff [Contemp. Math., 578:31-61, 2012] about the value of this term and the conjecture...

Description
Summary:We study the Hamiltonian of a two-dimensional log-gas with a confining potential V satisfying the weak growth assumption. Finally, we prove the equivalence between the conjecture of Brauchart Brauchart, Hardin and Saff [Contemp. Math., 578:31-61, 2012] about the value of this term and the conjecture of Sandier and Serfaty [Commun Math Phys. 313(3):635-743, 2012] about the minimality of the triangular lattice for a “renormalized energy” W among configurations of fixed asymptotic density.
