Abstract
We show that there exists a q-convex function in a neighborhood of a compact set K in a complex manifold \(\mathcal {M}\) if and only if the q-nucleus of this compact set is empty. The latter can be characterized as the maximal q-pseudoconcave subset of K, i.e., a subset of K containing all other compact q-pseudoconcave subsets in K.
期刊介绍:
This journal, the oldest scientific periodical in Italy, was originally edited by Barnaba Tortolini and Francesco Brioschi and has appeared since 1850. Nowadays it is managed by a nonprofit organization, the Fondazione Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata, c.o. Dipartimento di Matematica "U. Dini", viale Morgagni 67A, 50134 Firenze, Italy, e-mail annali@math.unifi.it).
A board of Italian university professors governs the Fondazione and appoints the editors of the journal, whose responsibility it is to supervise the refereeing process. The names of governors and editors appear on the front page of each issue. Their addresses appear in the title pages of each issue.
