THE WILLMORE ENERGY AND THE MAGNITUDE OF EUCLIDEAN DOMAINS

Gimperlein, Heiko and Goffeng, Magnus LU (2023) In Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society 151(2). p.897-906
Abstract

We study the geometric significance of Leinster’s notion of magnitude for a compact metric space. For a smooth, compact domain X in an odd-dimensional Euclidean space, we show that the asymptotic expansion of the function MX(R) = Mag(R·X) at R = ∞ determines the Willmore energy of the boundary ∂X. This disproves the Leinster-Willerton conjecture for a compact convex body in odd dimensions.
