TLDR
In this article, it was shown that the Leech lattice is the densest packing of congruent spheres in twenty-four dimensions and that it is the unique optimal periodic packing.Abstract:
Building on Viazovska's recent solution of the sphere packing problem in eight dimensions, we prove that the Leech lattice is the densest packing of congruent spheres in twenty-four dimensions and that it is the unique optimal periodic packing. In particular, we find an optimal auxiliary function for the linear programming bounds, which is an analogue of Viazovska's function for the eight-dimensional case.read more

Asymptotic Linear Programming Lower Bounds for the Energy of Minimizing Riesz and Gauss Configurations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors deduce linear programming lower bounds for the Riesz energy of point configurations on the unit sphere in the so-called hypersingular case, i.e., for non-integrable kernels of the form $|x-y|^{-s}$ with $s>d.
