Asymptotic Linear Programming Lower Bounds for the Energy of Minimizing Riesz and Gauss Configurations

Douglas P. Hardin, Timothy J. Michaels, Edward B. Saff

Utilizing frameworks developed by Delsarte, Yudin and Levenshtein, we deduce linear programming lower bounds (as $N\to \infty$) for the Riesz energy of $N$-point configurations on…
