Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to address two open questions raised by W. Reichel on characterizations of balls in terms of the Riesz potential and fractional Laplacian. For a bounded $C^1$ domain $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^N$, we consider the Riesz-potential ${\displaystyle }$u(x)=int_{Omega}frac{1}{|x-y|^{N-alpha}} ,dy${\displaystyle }$ for $2leqalphaot=N$. We show that $u=$ constant on the boundary of $Omega$ if and only if $Omega$ is a ball. In the case of $alpha=N$, the similar characterization is established for the logarithmic potential. We also prove that such a characterization holds for the logarithmic Riesz potential. This provides a characterization for the overdetermined problem of the fractional Laplacian. These results answer two open questions of W. Reichel to some extent.
