Let \(\Omega\) be an unbounded region in the complex plane of connectivity \(q\) bounded by mutually disjoint Jordan curves \(\Gamma_j, j=1,\dots,q\). The boundary \(\Gamma=\partial \Omega\) can be approximated by lemniscates which lie in \(\Omega\). The author gives a quantitative version of this theorem. Let \(G(z)\) be the Green's function of \(\Omega\) with pole at infinity and let \(\Gamma_{1+s}\) be the level line \(\{z\in \Omega: G(z)=\ln(1+s)\}\). Define \(S_n\) as the infimum of all \(s\) for which there exists a polynomial \(P_n\) of degree \(\leq n\) such that the lemniscate \(J(P_n):=\{z: | P_n(z)| =1\}\) is outside \(\Gamma\) but inside \(\Gamma_{1+s}\). The author shows that the estimate \(S_n=O(\ln n/n)\) holds if the boundary curve \(\Gamma\) is Dini-smooth. This generalizes a result of \textit{V. Andrievskij} [J. Approximation Theory 105, No. 2, 292--304 (2000; Zbl 0963.41012)] who proved such an estimate for the simply connected case \(q=1\).
