Local and global minimality results for a nonlocal isoperimetric problem on R^N

Abstract

We consider a nonlocal isoperimetric problem defined in the whole space , whose nonlocal part is given by a Riesz potential with exponent . We show that critical configurations with positive second variation are local minimizers and satisfy a quantitative inequality with respect to the -norm. This criterion provides the existence of a (explicitly determined) critical threshold determining the interval of volumes for which the ball is a local minimizer, and allows to address several global minimality issues.
