Jensen measures (Q2758409)

The paper describes a duality approach to potential theory and subharmonic functions. The objects dual to subharmonic functions are called Jensen measures. Formally, a Jensen measure for \(x\) on an open set \(\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^d\) is a Borel probability measure \(\mu\) supported on a compact subset of \(\Omega\), such that \(u(x)\leq\int ud \mu\) for every subharmonic function \(u\) on \(\Omega\). The paper shows how to prove duality theorems using Jensen measures. An example of such theorem is the equality between the subharmonic envelope and Jensen envelope for a continuous function.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0972.00045].
