Newtonian potential of torus

135 Views Asked by At

Is there an explicit expression of the Newtonian potential for torus? As the expression for ball is clear by calculation.

Definition of Newtonian potential of domain $\Omega$ at x is defined to be $u(x)=\int_{R^{n}}\Gamma(|x-y|)\chi_{\Omega}(y)dy$. When $x\in \Omega$ we say it is the interior Newtonian potential, otherwise we call it exterior Newtonian potential. Here $\Gamma(x)=\frac{1}{|x|^{n-2}}$ is the fundamental solution of Laplace, $\chi_{\Omega}$ is the characterization fucntion of $\Omega$
