The Newtonian Gravitational Field and its Potential 12 Special Convex Bodies 223 Let C be a compact set in E3 consisting of homogeneous matter. Up to a multiplicative constant, its (Newtonian) gravitational field g is given by � g(y) = C x − y �x − y� 3 dx for y ∈ E3 \C, where the integral is to be understood componentwise. The corresponding ( Newtonian) gravitational potential P then is given by � dx P(y) = �x − y� for y ∈ E3 \C, up to an additive constant. Note that g = grad P. The Problem and One Answer C A natural question to ask is whether C is determined uniquely by the gravitational field g or the gravitational potential P. Pertinent results are due to Novikov [774] and Shahgholian [927]. A special case of the latter’s result is the following (earlier) result of Aharonov, Schiffer and Zalcman [3]. Theorem 12.3. Let C = cl int C ⊆ E 3 be a compact body consisting of homogeneous matter such that E 3 \C is connected. If the gravitational field of C coincides in E 3 \C with the gravitational field of a suitable point mass, then C is a ball. The following proof relies heavily on results from potential and measure theory for which we refer to Wermer [1018] and Bauer [82]. Proof. We clearly may suppose that the point mass is located at the origin o. Then, by assumption, � C x − y α y dx =− �x − y�3 �y�3 for y ∈ E3 \C, where α>0 is a suitable constant. Since the fields coincide on the open connected set E 3 \C, the corresponding potentials coincide on E 3 \C up to an additive constant, i.e. � C dx α = �y − x� �y� + β for y ∈ E3 \C, where β is a suitable constant. Letting �y� →+∞, it follows that β = 0. Thus, (1) � dx α = �y − x� �y� for y ∈ E3 \C. C
224 Convex Bodies The integral here may be considered as the convolution of the locally integrable function 1/�x� on E 3 \{o} with the characteristic function of C which is bounded, measurable and has compact support. It thus defines a bounded continuous function on all of E 3 . Then (2) o ∈ int C, since otherwise the function α/�y� is unbounded on E 3 \C and thus the above integral is unbounded by (1), a contradiction. A real function u on a domain in E 3 of class C 2 which satisfies the Laplace equation �u = ∂2 u ∂x 2 1 is harmonic. We now show the following: + ∂2 u ∂x 2 2 + ∂2 u ∂x 2 3 = 0 (3) Let u be a harmonic function on a neighbourhood of C. Then � C u(x) dx = α u(o), where α is as in (1). Modify u outside C to be of class C2 with compact support S, preserving the harmonicity on and near C. Since u is of class C2 and has compact support, a potential theoretic result shows that (4) u(x) =− 1 4π � S �u(y) �x − y� dy for x ∈ E3 , see Wermer [1018], p.13. Thus, � u(x) dx =− C 1 � � 4π � �u(y) 1 dydx =− �x − y� 4π C S =− S 1 � �u(y) 4π α dy = α u(o) �y� S � � �u(y) C dx � dy �x − y� by (4), Fubini’s theorem, (1) and (4) again, concluding the proof of (3). Now, noting (2), choose p ∈ bd C closest to o and take points p1, p2, ···∈E 3 \C with pn → p. Each of the functions vn defined by vn(x) = �x�2 −�pn� 2 �x − pn� 3 for x ∈ E 3 \{pn} is harmonic on C and vn(x) → v(x) for x ∈ C \{p}, where v is a harmonic function defined by v(x) = �x�2 −�p�2 �x − p�3 for x ∈ E 3 \{p}. The sequence � vn(·) � converges pointwise and thus stochastically to v(·) on C\{p} and is uniformly integrable on C. Thus
