Symmetrization of plurisubharmonic and convex functions

Complex Variables 2012-10-30 v2 Functional Analysis

Abstract

We show that Schwarz symmetrization does not increase the Monge-Ampere energy for S1S^1-invariant plurisubharmonic functions in the ball. As a result we derive a sharp Moser-Trudinger inequality for such functions. We also show that similar results do not hold for general balanced domains except for complex ellipsoids and discuss related questions for convex functions.
