Abstract

First, we give the definition for quasi-nearly subharmonic functions, now for general, not necessarily nonnegative functions, unlike previously. We point out that our function class incudes, among others, quasisubharmonic functions, nearly subharmonic functions (in a slightly generalized sense) and almost subharmonic functions. We also give some basic properties of quasi-nearly subharmonic functions. Second, after recalling some of the existing subharmonicity results of separately subharmonic functions, we give the corresponding counterparts for separately quasi-nearly subharmonic functions, thus improving previous results of ours, of Lelong, of Avanissian and of Arsove. Third, we give two results concerning the subharmonicity of a function subharmonic with respect to the first variable and harmonic with respect to the second variable. The first result improves a result of Arsove, concerning the case when the function has, in addition, locally a negative integrable minorant. The second result improves a result of Ko{\l}odziej and Thorbi\"ornson concerning the subharmonicity of a function subharmonic and C2{\mathcal{C}}^2 in the first variable and harmonic in the second.
