This paper is devoted to Markov's extremal problems of the form $M_{n,k}=\sup_{p\in\PP_n\setminus\{0\}}{{\|p^{(k)}\|}_X}/{{\|p\|}_X}$ $(1\le k\le n)$, where $\PP_n$ is the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ and $X$ is a…

A famous result of Siciak is how the Siciak-Zakharyuta functions, sometimes called global extremal functions or pluricomplex Green functions with a pole at infinity, of two sets relate to the Siciak-Zakharyuta function of their cartesian…

The classical Siciak-Zakharyuta theorem states that the Siciak-Zakharyuta function $V_{E}$ of a subset $E$ of $\mathbb C^n$, also called a pluricomplex Green function or global exremal function of $E$, equals the logarithm of the Siciak…

We discuss the Siciak-Zaharjuta extremal function of pluripotential theory for the unit ball in C^d for spaces of polynomials with the notion of degree determined by a convex body P. We then use it to analyze the approximation properties of…

We generalize the Bernstein-Walsh-Siciak theorem on polynomial approximation in $\mathbb{C}^n$ to the case where the polynomial ring $\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{C}^n)$ is replaced by a subring $\mathcal{P}^S(\mathbb{C}^n)$ consisting of all…

Extremal problems for typically real polynomials go back to a paper by W. W. Rogosinski and G. Szeg\H{o}, where a number of problems were posed, which were partially solved by using orthogonal polynomials. Since then, not too many new…

In the class of normalized sine-polynomials $S(t),$ non-negative on $[0,\pi],$ W.Rogosinski and G.Szeg\H{o} 1950 considered a number of extremal problems and proved, among other things, sharp upper and lower estimates for the coefficient…

This paper is a survey of plurisubharmonic theory where the usual polynomial ring is replaced by a polynomial ring $\mathcal P^S(\mathbb C^n)$ where the $m$-th degree polynomials have exponents restricted to $mS$, where $S\subseteq \mathbb…

We consider the classical problem of estimating norms of higher order derivatives of algebraic polynomial via the norms of polynomial itself. The corresponding extremal problem for general polynomials in uniform norm was solved by A. A.…

For a convex domain K in the complex plane C, the well-known general Markov inequality asserting that a polynomial p of degree n ||p'|| < c(K) n^2 ||p|| holds. On the other hand for polynomials in general, ||p'|| can be arbitrarily small as…

In this work, we study the extremal functions of the log-Sobolev functional on compact metric measure spaces satisfying the $\mathrm{RCD}^*(K,N)$ condition for $K$ in $\mathbb{R}$ and $N$ in $(2,\infty)$. We show the existence, regularity…

In this article, we establish the existence of an extremal function for the k-th order critical Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya (HSM) inequalities on the upper half space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_{+}$ when $k\ge 2$ and $n\geq 2k+2$:…

We work in the setting of weighted pluripotential theory arising from polynomials associated to a convex body $P$ in $({\bf R}^+)^d$. We define the {\it logarithmic indicator function} on ${\bf C}^d$: $$H_P(z):=\sup_{ J\in P} \log |z^{…

We study various regularization operators on plurisubharmonic functions that preserve Lelong classes with growth given by certain compact convex sets. The purpose is to show that the weighted Siciak-Zakharyuta functions associated with…

Our main goal is to investigate supercritical Hardy-Sobolev type inequalities with a logarithmic term and their corresponding variational problem. We prove the existence of extremal functions for the associated variational problem, despite…

The Kurdyka-{\L}ojasiewicz (K{\L}) property, exponent and modulus have played a very important role in the study of global convergence and rate of convergence for optimal algorithms. In this paper, at a stationary point of a locally lower…

We present a survey of central developments in the theory of Chebyshev polynomials, introduced by P.~L.~Chebyshev and later extended to the complex plane by G.~Faber. Our primary focus is their defining extremal property: among all…

Let $E$ be a Jordan rectifiable curve in the complex plane and let $G$ be the bounded component of $\mathbb{C}\backslash E$. Now let $n\in \mathbb{N}$, and let $m_{n,E}$ denote the extremal constants defined by \begin{equation*}m_{n,E}=\inf…

In the paper we generalize the notion of problem (P) introduced by Poletsky. We introduce the notion of (P_m) extremals. For example, geodesics are (P_1) extremals. Using obtained results we present a description of (P_m) extremals in…

There is a natural pluripotential-theoretic extremal function V_{K,Q} associated to a closed subset K of C^m and a real-valued, continuous function Q on K. We define random polynomials H_n whose coefficients with respect to a related…
