We provide a general framework and indicate relations between the notions of transfinite diameter, homogeneous transfinite diameter, and weighted transfinite diameter for sets in ℂ^{$N$}. An ingredient is a formula of Rumely (A Robin formula for the Fekete–Leja transfinite diameter,$Math. Ann.$$337$(2007), 729–738) which relates the Robin function and the transfinite diameter of a compact set. We also prove limiting formulas for integrals of generalized Vandermonde determinants with varying weights for a general class of compact sets and measures in ℂ^{$N$}. Our results extend to certain weights and measures defined on cones in ℝ^{$N$}.

We give a local criterion in terms of a residue current for strong holomorphicity of a meromorphic function on an arbitrary pure-dimensional analytic variety. This generalizes a result by A. Tsikh for the case of a reduced complete intersection.

In this paper, we compare some deterministic and probabilistic techniques in the study of upper bounds in problems related to certain mean square discrepancie with respect to balls in the$d$-dimensional unit torus, and show that the quality of these techniques depends in an intricate way on the dimension$d$under consideration.

In the present paper we prove, that in the real normed space$X$, having at least three dimensions, the Nordlander’s conjecture about the modulus of convexity of the space$X$is true, i.e. from the validity of Day’s inequality for a fixed real number from the interval (0,2), follows that$X$is an inner product space.

We introduce a basis of the Orlik–Solomon algebra labeled by chambers, the so called chamber basis. We consider structure constants of the Orlik–Solomon algebra with respect to the chamber basis and prove that these structure constants recover D. Cohen’s minimal complex from the Aomoto complex.
