A weighted extremal function and equilibrium measure

Abstract: Let

and

Q (x) := f r a c 12 l o g (1 + x^{2})

where

x = (x_{1}, ..., x_{n})

and

x^{2} = x_{1}^{2} + c d o t s + x_{n}^{2}

. Utilizing extremal functions for convex bodies in

and Sadullaev's characterization of algebraicity for complex analytic subvarieties of

we prove the following explicit formula for the weighted extremal function

V_{K, Q}

:

V_{K,Q}(z)=frac{1}{2}log �igl( [1+|z|^2] + { [1+|z|^2]^2-|1+z^2|^2}^{1/2})

where

z = (z_{1}, ..., z_{n})

and

z^{2} = z_{1}^{2} + c d o t s + z_{n}^{2}

. As a corollary, we find that the Alexander capacity

of

is

1 / s q r t 2

. We also compute the Monge-Amp`ere measure of

V_{K, Q}

:

(dd^cV_{K,Q})^n = n!frac{1}{(1+x^2)^{frac{n+1}{2}}}dx.
