abstract
We prove that the D_4 root system (equivalently, the set of vertices of the regular 24-cell) is not a universally optimal spherical code. We further conjecture that there is no universally optimal spherical code of 24 points in S^3, based on numerical computations suggesting that every 5-design consisting of 24 points in S^3 is in a 3-parameter family (which we describe explicitly, based on a construction due to Sali) of deformations of the D_4 root system.

Optimal measures for p-frame energies on spheres
Tight designs minimize p-frame energies over all probability measures for p between consecutive even integers, and the 600-cell does so on S3 for p in [8,10].
