Global validity of the regular-polygon maximizer property

At least 21 years old · documented by

Let NN be the number of points and let (Pm)(P_m) denote the property that the maximizer represented by regular polygons has the specified geometric extremal behavior for mm points. Global maximizer property. The property (Pm)(P_m) holds globally for any m=2,…,[12N]m=2,\dots, [\frac{1}{2}N]. The global nature of the regular-polygon maximizer is reduced to this geometric claim; the preceding argument establishes the corresponding local result, while the global validity is presented as the more difficult unresolved question.
