On quadrature domains and an inverse problem in potential theory (Q1174676)

The author considers relations between quadrature domains and the inverse problem in potential theory which are quite close and deep. He introduces some order in the class of domains determined by comparison of their potentials, studies extremal domains with respect to this order and gives some interesting examples. About the inverse problem of potential theory we refer to the recent book of the reviewer [Inverse source problems (Providence 1990; Zbl 0721.31002). There are many challenging questions there.
