Subharmonic Functions in IRn

Let B be the unit ball in ℝn, let F be the restriction to B of all positive superharmonic functions on RB, where R is a fixed number >1. If we take δ to be the Lebesgue measure on B, it is well known that U=B and δ satisfies all the assumptions made in

Introduction The purpose of this book is to study plurisubharmonic and analytic functions in

~n

using capacity theory. The case n=l

has been studied for a long time and is very well understood. The theory has been generalized to

mn

many cases similar to the situation in

and the results are in ~.

However, these

results are not so well adapted to complex analysis in several variables - they are more related to harmonic than pluriharmonic functions. Capacities can be thought of as a non-linear generalization of measures; capacities are set functions and many of the capacities considered here can be obtained as envelopes of measures. In the

mn

theory, the link between functions and capa-

cities is often the Laplace operator - the corresponding link in the

~n theory is the complex Monge-Ampere operator.

This operator is non-linear (it is n-linear) while the Laplace operator is linear. This explains why the theories in ~n

differ

mn

and

considerably. For example, the sum of two harmonic

functions is harmonic, but it can happen that the sum of two plurisubharmonic functions has positive Monge-Ampere mass while each of the two functions has vanishing Monge-Ampere mass. To give an example of similarities and differences, consider the following statements. Assume first that
