Lipschitzness of the Lempert and Green functions

Green vs. Lempert functions: a minimal example

The Lempert function for a set of poles in a domain of $\mathbb C^n$ at a point $z$ is obtained by taking a certain infimum over all analytic disks going through the poles and the point $z$, and majorizes the corresponding multi-pole pluricomplex Green function. Coman proved that both coincide in the case of sets of two poles in the unit ball. We give an example of a set of three poles in the unit ball where this equality fails.

Pluricomplex Green and Lempert functions for equally weighted poles

For $Ω$ a domain in $\mathbb C^n$, the pluricomplex Green function with poles $a_1, ...,a_N \in Ω$ is defined as $G(z):=\sup \{u(z): u\in PSH_-(Ω), u(x)\le \log \|x-a_j\|+C_j \text{when} x \to a_j, j=1,...,N \}$. When there is only one pole, or two poles in the unit ball, it turns out to be equal to the Lempert function defined from analytic disks into $Ω$ by $L_S (z) :=\inf \{\sum^N_{j=1}ν_j\log|ζ_j|: \exists ϕ\in \mathcal {O}(\mathbb D,Ω), ϕ(0)=z, ϕ(ζ_j)=a_j, j=1,...,N \}$. It is known that we always have $L_S (z) \ge G_S(z)$. In the more general case where we allow weighted poles, there is …

Convergence and multiplicities for the Lempert function

Given a domain $Ω\subset \mathbb C$, the Lempert function is a functional on the space $Hol (\D,Ω)$ of analytic disks with values in $Ω$, depending on a set of poles in $Ω$. We generalize its definition to the case where poles have multiplicities given by local indicators (in the sense of Rashkovskii's work) to obtain a function which still dominates the corresponding Green function, behaves relatively well under limits, and is monotonic with respect to the indicators. In particular, this is an improvement over the previous generalization used by the same authors to find an example of a set of…

An example of limit of Lempert Functions

The Lempert function for several poles $a_0, ..., a_N$ in a domain $Ω$ of $\mathbb C^n$ is defined at the point $z \in Ω$ as the infimum of $\sum^N_{j=0} \log|ζ_j|$ over all the choices of points $ζ_j$ in the unit disk so that one can find a holomorphic mapping from the disk to the domain $Ω$ sending 0 to $z$. This is always larger than the pluricomplex Green function for the same set of poles, and in general different. Here we look at the asymptotic behavior of the Lempert function for three poles in the bidisk (the origin and one on each axis) as they all tend to the origin. The limit of the…

The Siciak-Zahariuta extremal function as the envelope of disc functionals

We establish disc formulas for the Siciak-Zahariuta extremal function of an arbitrary open subset of complex affine space, generalizing Lempert's formula for the convex case. This function is also known as the pluricomplex Green function with logarithmic growth or a logarithmic pole at infinity. We extend Lempert's formula for this function from the convex case to the connected case.
