Explicit minimisers for anisotropic Riesz energies

In this paper we characterise the energy minimisers of a class of nonlocal interaction energies where the attraction is quadratic, and the repulsion is Riesz-like and anisotropic. In particular we show that, if the Fourier transform of the repulsive potential is positive, the minimiser is supported on a fully-dimensional ellipsoid, and its density is given by a Barenblatt-type profile. Our technique of proof is based on a Fourier representation of the potential of such measures, that extends a previous formula established by some of the authors in the Coulomb case.

Abstract

In this paper we characterise the energy minimisers of a class of nonlocal interaction energies where the attraction is quadratic, and the repulsion is Riesz-like and anisotropic. In particular we show that, if the Fourier transform of the repulsive potential is positive, the minimiser is supported on a fully-dimensional ellipsoid, and its density is given by a Barenblatt-type profile. Our technique of proof is based on a Fourier representation of the potential of such measures, that extends a previous formula established by some of the authors in the Coulomb case.
