We give characterisations of certain positive finite Borel measures with unbounded support on the real axis so that the algebraic polynomials are dense in all spaces$L$_{$p$}($R$,$d$μ),$p$≥1. These conditions apply, in particular, to the measures satisfying the classical Carleman conditions.

Let$Z$be the zero set of a holomorphic section$f$of a Hermitian vector bundle. It is proved that the current of integration over the irreducible components of$Z$of top degree, counted with multiplicities, is a product of a residue factor$R$^{$f$}and a “Jacobian factor”. There is also a relation to the Monge-Ampère expressions ($dd$^{$c$}log|$f$|)^{$k$}, which we define for all positive powers$k$.

A similar formula to the one established by Ansemil and Floret for symmetric tensor products of direct sums is proved for alternating and Jacobian tensor products. It is then applied to stable spaces where a number of isomorphisms between spaces of tensors or multilinear forms are unveiled. A connection between these problems and irreducible group representations is made.

Let ($A$_{$0, A$}_{$1$}) be a compatible pair of quasi-Banach spaces and 1et$A$be a corresponding space of real interpolation type such that$A$_{$0$}∩$A$_{$1$}is not dense in$A$. Upper and lower estimates are obtained for the distance of any element$f$of$A$from$A$_{$0$}∩$A$_{$1$}. These lead to formulae for the distance in a large number of concrete situations, such as when$A$_{$0$}∩$A$_{$1$}=$L$^{$∞$}and$A$is either weak-$L$^{q}, a ‘grand’ Lebesgue space or an Orlicz space of exponential type.
