Minimal Riesz and Logarithmic Energies on the Grassmannian Gr(2,4)

How the Riesz and logarithmic potential energies of point configurations on the Grassmannian Gr(2,4) of 2-planes in R4 are minimized. The learner sees that the continuous energy is uniquely minimized by the uniform measure, that the minimal discrete energy has matching-order upper and lower asymptotic bounds including the next-order term, and how a determinantal point process on the manifold yields explicit constants in the upper bounds.
