We provide a general framework and indicate relations between the notions of transfinite diameter, homogeneous transfinite diameter, and weighted transfinite diameter for sets in C^N. An ingredient is a formula of Rumely which relates the…

We continue the study in the setting of pluripotential theory arising from polynomials associated to a convex body $C$ in $({\bf R}^+)^d$. Here we discuss $C-$Robin functions and their applications. In the particular case where $C$ is a…

Let $K \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a compact set satisfying the following Bernstein inequality: for any $m \in \{ 1,..., n\}$ and for any $n$-variate polynomial $P$ of degree $\mbox{deg}(P)$ we have \begin{align*} \max_{z\in…

A classical inequality by Gr\"unbaum provides a sharp lower bound for the ratio $\mathrm{vol}(K^{-})/\mathrm{vol}(K)$, where $K^{-}$ denotes the intersection of a convex body with non-empty interior $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with a halfspace…

For a Minkowski centered convex compact set $K$ we define $\alpha(K)$ to be the smallest possible factor to cover $K \cap (-K)$ by a rescalation of $\mathrm{conv} (K\cup (-K))$ and give a complete description of the possible values of…

The generalized circumradius of a set of points $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ with respect to a convex body $K$ equals the minimum value of $\lambda \geq 0$ such that $A$ is contained in a translate of $\lambda K$. Each choice of $K$ gives a…

We study Chebyshev constants and transfinite diameter on the graph of a polynomial mapping $f\colon\mathbb{C}^2\to\mathbb{C}^2$. We show that two transfinite diameters of a compact subset of the graph (i.e., defined with respect to two…

Let $C\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex body. We introduce two notions of convexity associated to C. A set $K$ is $C$-ball convex if it is the intersection of translates of $C$, or it is either $\emptyset$, or ${\mathbb R}^n$. The $C$-ball…

Let $\mathbf D=\bar{\mathbb D}$ be the closed unit disk in $\mathbb C$ and $\mathbf B_n=\bar{\mathbb B_n}$ the closed unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$. For a compact subset $K$ in $\mathbb C^n$ with nonempty interior, let $A(K)$ be the uniform…

In this paper we prove the existence of the Dunkl weight function $K_{c, \lambda}$ for any irreducible representation $\lambda$ of any finite Coxeter group $W$, generalizing previous results of Dunkl. In particular, $K_{c, \lambda}$ is a…

Rudin's version of the classical Julia-Wolff-Carath\'eodory theorem is a cornerstone of holomorphic function theory in the unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^d$. In this paper we obtain a complete generalization of Rudin's theorem for a holomorphic…

The Wills functional $\mathcal{W}(K)$ of a convex body $K$, defined as the sum of its intrinsic volumes $\mathrm{V}_i(K)$, turns out to have many interesting applications and properties. In this paper we make profit of the fact that it can…

Polynomial spaces associated to a convex body $C$ in $({\bf R}^+)^d$ have been the object of recent studies. In this work, we consider polynomial spaces associated to non-convex $C$. We develop some basic pluripotential theory including…

Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental question in geometry, which has a wide variety of applications. Given a convex body $K$ in $\textbf{R}^d$ for fixed $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating…

The average section functional ${\rm as}(K)$ of a centered convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ is the average volume of central hyperplane sections of $K$: \begin{equation*}{\rm as}(K)=\int_{S^{n-1}}|K\cap \xi^{\perp }|\,d\sigma (\xi…

Given a compact set $K$ one may define a transfinite diameter for $K$ via a limiting process involving maximising a Vandermonde determinant over $K$ with respect to a monomial basis. Different transfinite diameters may be obtained by using…

We use methods from computational algebraic geometry to study Chebyshev constants and the transfinite diameter of a pure $m$-dimensional affine algebraic variety in $\mathbb{C}^n$ ($m\leq n$). The main result is a generalization of…

Let C(K) denote the Banach algebra of continuous real functions, with the supremum norm, on a compact Hausdorff space K. For two subsets of C(K), one can define their product by pointwise multiplication, just as the Minkowski sum of the…

Is it true that a convex body $K$ being complete and reduced with respect to some gauge body $C$ is necessarily of constant width, that is, satisfies $K-K=\rho(C-C)$ for some $\rho>0$? We prove this implication for several cases including…

In this article we show the following result: if $C$ is an $n$-dimensional convex and compact subset, $f:C\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ is concave, and $\phi:[0,\infty)\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ is a convex function with $\phi(0)=0$, we then…
