LeVeque type inequalities and discrepancy estimates for minimal energy configurations on spheres

Abstract

Let denote the unit sphere in the Euclidean space . We develop LeVeque type inequalities for the discrepancy between the rotationally invariant probability measure and the normalized counting measures on . We obtain both upper bound and lower bound estimates. We then use these inequalities to estimate the discrepancy of the normalized counting measures associated with minimal energy configurations on .
