Energy-minimizing set of discrete points in a bounded domain
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ be a smooth, bounded domain.
Let $x_1,\ldots,x_n \in \overline{\Omega}$ be chosen so as to minimize

Does there exist a compactly supported integrable function with infinite Coulomb energy?
The title of the question pretty much says it all. I am looking for a function $f\in L^1(\Omega)$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ is a bounded domain, such that
$$
E[f] = \iint\limits_{\Omega\...
