The minimum sets and free boundaries of strictly plurisubharmonic functions (Q514268)

The authors study the structure of the minimum sets of certain classes of functions. Among other results they prove the following two theorems. -- Let \(v\geq0\) be a convex function in a bounded domain \(\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n\) such that \(\det(D^2v)\geq C>0\) and \(v\in\mathcal C^{1,\alpha}\) for \(\alpha>1-\frac{2k}n\). Then the Hausdorff dimension of the minimum set \(v^{-1}(0)\) is \(<k\). -- Let \(u\geq0\) be a plurisubharmonic function in a domain \(\Omega\subset\mathbb C^n\) such that \((dd^cu)\geq1\) and \(u\in\mathcal C^{1,\alpha}\) for \(\alpha>1-\frac{2k}n\) if \(2k\leq n\) or \(u\in\mathcal C^{0,\beta}\) for \(\beta>2-\frac{2k}n\) if \(2k>n\). Then there is no analytic set of dimension \(\geq k\) contained in the minimum set \(u^{-1}(0)\). Special attention is devoted to the one-dimensional case.
