Asymptotic cylinder-shape conjecture for magnetic ground-state minimizers
Asymptotic cylinder-shape conjecture for magnetic ground-state minimizers
Let be the strength of a constant magnetic field. Let be a minimizing domain, and let and denote its height and radius. Let and be the height and radius of the optimal comparison cylinder. Asymptotic cylinder-shape conjecture.
and
as . Numerical minimizers increasingly resemble long cylinders with round caps, but these asymptotics remain unproved and are posed as an open problem.
