    Allocation of $\mathbb R^2$

    Let $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ be $n\ge 1$ distinct points of $\mathbb R^2$. Define the potential function $U: \mathbb R^2 \to\mathbb R$ by
    $$U(x):=\sum_{1\le i\le n} \log(|x-z_i|),$$
    where $|\cdot|$ denotes the Euclidean norm. Denote by $F$ be the negative gradient of $U$, i.e....
