How can we understand the origins of highly symmetrical objects? One way is
to characterize them as the solutions of natural optimization problems from
discrete geometry or physics. In this paper, we explore how to prove that
exceptional objects, such as regular polytopes or the E_8 root system, are
optimal solutions to packing and potential energy minimization problems.
