Monge-Amp\`ere of Pac-Man

Abstract

We show that the Monge-Amp\`ere density of the extremal function VPV_P for a non-convex Pac-Man set PR2P\subset {\bf R}^2 tends to a finite limit as we approach the vertex pp of PP linearly but with a value that may vary with the line. On the other hand, along a tangential approach to pp the Monge-Amp\`ere density becomes unbounded. This partially mimics the behavior of the Monge-Amp\`ere density of the union of two quarter disks set SS of Sigurdsson and Snaebjarnarson. We also recover their formula for VSV_S by elementary methods.
