{\bf Résumé.} À toute fonction d'exhaustion plurisousharmonique
continue $\varphi$ sur un espace de Stein, nous associons une
collection de mesures positives portées par les surfaces de niveau de

de Bedford et Taylor. Nous montrons que ces mesures jouent un rôle
fondamental dans l'étude des propriétés de croissance et de convexité
des fonctions plurisousharmoniques ou holomorphes. Lorsque le volume
de Monge-Ampère de la variété est fini, un théorème d'algébricité de
type Siegel s'applique aux fonctions holomorphes à croissance
$\varphi$-polynomiale. Nous en déduisons que la finitude du volume de
Monge-Ampère, associée à une minoration convenable de la courbure de
Ricci, est une condition géométrique nécessaire et suffisante
caractérisant les variétés algébriques affines.  \medskip

{\bf Abstract.} To every continuous plurisubharmonic exhaustion
function $\varphi$ on a Stein space, we associate a collection of
positive measures with support in the level sets of $\varphi$, defined
by means of the Monge-Ampère operators in the sense of Bedford and
Taylor. We show that these measures play a prominent part in the study
of growth and convexity properties of plurisubharmonic or holomorphic
functions. When the variety has finite Monge-Ampère volume, an
algebraicity theorem of Siegel type holds for holomorphic functions
with $\varphi$-polynomial growth. From this result, we deduce that the
finiteness of Monge-Ampère volume, together with a suitable lower
bound of the Ricci curvature, is a necessary and sufficient geometric
condition characterizing affine algebraic varieties.\par}

\section{0}{Introduction.}

This study takes place in the framework of the spaces
complex analytical. The first section is devoted to a
definition of differential forms, positive currents and functions
plurisubharmonic on a complex space possibly $X$
singular. Given a local $X$ dipping in an open
$\Omega\subset\bC^N$, we define the differential forms on
$X$ as restrictions $X$ forms ``ambient''
on~$\Omega$~; spaces currents are deduced by duality
as in the smooth case.\medskip

{\statement Definition 0.1.\pointir}{\it Either a $V:X\to
[-\infty,+\infty[$ function.

if $V$ is locally restriction $X$ of psh functions on space

\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (b)} $V$ will be called weakly psh if $V$ is locally integrable
and increased on $X$ and if $dd^cV\geq 0$.\vskip2pt}
Notation~$:$ raised here

d^c=i(\overline\partial-\partial),\quad\hbox{de sorte que}\quad 
dd^c=2i\,\partial\overline\partial.$}\medskip}

Any psh psh function is low, but in general a
low psh function does not necessarily identify almost
everywhere a psh function. However, we show that both
concepts coincide when $X$ space is locally
irreducible. The proof of this result uses two
ingredients: firstly characterization psh functions due to
Fornaess and Narasimhan [FN], secondly an extension theorem
psh functions of bounded through the singular place $X$ (which
uses the resolution of singularities). We also study the
transformation of closed positive currents and psh functions
own direct image.

In\S2 we essentially resuming the method developed by
Bedford and Taylor [BT2] to give meaning to the positive current
$dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k$ when
$\varphi_j$ psh functions are locally bounded, and we
generalize to the case where one of the functions (either by $\varphi_i$
example) is not locally bounded. Conventional inequalities
Chern-Levine-Nirenberg can then be stated as follows~:
\medskip

{\statement Theorem 0.2.\pointir}{\it For open $\omega\compact X$
and any compact $K\subset\omega$ there are constant $C_1$, $C_2$
depending only on $\omega$ $K$ and we have such mark-ups
following mass~$:$
{\parindent = 6.5mm
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (a)} $\displaystyle\int_K\Vert 
dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k\Vert\le

\Vert\varphi_k\Vert_{L^\infty(\omega)},$
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (b)} $\displaystyle\int_K\Vert \varphi_1\,
dd^c\varphi_2\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k\Vert\le
C_2\Vert\varphi_1\Vert_{L^1(\omega)}\Vert\varphi_2\Vert_{L^\infty(\omega)}\ldots
\Vert\varphi_k\Vert_{L^\infty(\omega)}.$\medskip}}

Finally, we show in this continuity
Monge-Amp\`ere of sequential operators
$$
(\varphi_1,\ldots,\varphi_k)\longmapsto
dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k\quad\hbox{et}\quad
\varphi_1\,dd^c\varphi_2\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k
$$
for decreasing sequences of $\varphi_1^\nu,\ldots,\varphi_k^\nu$
psh functions.

Assume now that $X$ is a Stein space and is $X$
with a comprehensive continuous psh function
$\varphi:X\to[-\infty,R[$. Then we denote
$$
B(r)=\big\{z\in X\,;\;\varphi(z) < r\big\},\qquad S(r) =\big\{z \in X\,;\; 
\varphi(z) = r\big\},\qquad r\in [-\infty,R[
$$
the ``pseudoboules'' and ``Pseudosphères''
associated with $\varphi$. With these data, we show that we can
naturally associate a collection of positive measures
$\mu_r$ carried by spheres~$S(r)$, we call for measures
Monge-Amp\`ere associated~$\varphi$. These are defined
simply by
$$
\mu_r(h) = \int_{S(r)} h\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d^c\varphi,\qquad 
n = \dim X,
$$
when $\varphi$ is $\cC^2$ class and when $r$ is regular value
~ of$\varphi$. In the case where only $\varphi$ is continuous, it is necessary
to use the definition of Bedford-Taylor and ask for $(dd^c)^n$
$$
\mu_r = \big(dd^c\max(\varphi,r)\big)^n-\bOne_{X\ssm B(r)}(dd^c\varphi)^n.
$$
We then have a formula type Lelong-Jensen, whose proof
is an immediate consequence of the theorems of Stokes and Fubini (cf.~\S3).
\medskip

{\statement
Theorem 0.3.\pointir}{\it Any function psh $V$ is on $X$
$\mu_r$ integrable regardless $r < R$, and has the formula
$$
\int_{-\infty}^r dt\int_{B(t)}dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1} = 
\mu_r(V) - \int_{B(r)}V(dd^c\varphi)^n.
$$}

It further shows that $\mu_r$ measures depend continuously on
$\varphi$ respect to decreasing sequences. This allows you to see
as in the case $\cC^\infty$ $(\mu_r)$ that the family is the family
of weakly continuous measures left that disintegrates the current
 $(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi$ positive on the
spheres~$S(r)$.

The measures thus constructed $\mu_r$ enjoy a number of
important natural properties for the study of growth and
the convexity of psh functions.

Section 4 examines the extent ``Residual''
$\mu_{-\infty}=\bOne_{S(-\infty)}(dd^c\varphi)^n$, driven by
in the polar\\-sem-ble $S(-\infty)$. From (0.3), the measurement
$\mu_{-\infty}$ can also be defined as the weak limit
~ of$\mu_r$ when $r$ approaches~$-\infty$. Drawing inspiration from our
Previous work [De4,~De5], we show that the measure
$\mu_{-\infty}$ essentially depends behavior
asymptotic $\varphi$ near $S(-\infty)$. This result
follows the classical inequality
$$
(dd^\varphi)^n\geq 2^n\sum_{x\in X}\nu(\varphi,x)^n\,\delta_x,
\leqno(0.4) 
$$
where denotes the number of $\nu(\varphi,x)$ Lelong in any of $\varphi$
Point~$x\in X$ and $\delta_x$ the Dirac measure in $x$ (at a point
singular~$x$, this measure must be counted with multiplicity equal
the multiplicity of $X$ in~$x$).

In\S5, we show that the measures satisfy the principle $\mu_r$
the maximum with respect to psh functions, namely that for all
psh function $V$ we have the equality:
$$
\sup_{B(r)}V = \hbox{\rm sup essentiel de $V$ relativement à $\mu_r$}.
\leqno(0.5) 
$$
The remarkable fact is that equality holds that the support
$\mu_r$ can be very incomplete in $S(r)$, such as in
If the $B(r)$ pseudoboules are analytic polyhedra.

Paragraph 6 generalizes to the present situation of the properties
classic convexity due to P. Lelong, on averages
psh functions on the balls, spheres, polydisques~$\ldots$~. We
show that the natural geometrical assumption that underlies the
validity of the convexity properties is the fact that the function
$\varphi$ either homogeneous solution of Monge-Amp\`ere equation
$(dd^c\varphi)^n\equiv 0$. Specifically~:\medskip

{\statement
Theorem 0.6.\pointir}{\it Assume that $(dd^c\varphi)^n\equiv 0$
on the open $\{\varphi > A\}$. $V$ be a psh function on
$X$. Then the $V$ sup on $B(r)$, average $\mu_r(V)$ and
more generally averages in standard $L^p$,
$r\mapsto[\mu_r(V_+^p)]^{1/p}$ are increasing convex functions
of $r\in{}]A,R]$.}
\medskip

Verification of this result is obtained by elementary calculations
of second derivatives, involving the formula of Jensen and 0.3
theorems of Stokes and Fubini. More generally, we
demonstrate a version with ``parameter'' theorem
0.6, on $\mu_{y,r}$ measurements on fiber $\pi^{-1}(y)$
an holomorphic fibration $\pi:X\to Y$. The psh function $\varphi$
Data on $X$ is assumed exhaustive on the fibers and such that
$(dd^c\varphi)^n\equiv 0$ on open $\{\varphi > A\}$ where is $n$
fiber size. Then the average $\mu_{y,r}(V)$ and
averages $L^p$ standard functions are weakly psh couple
$(y, z)$ on $Y\times\bC$, if we set $r = \Re z$. One draws
easily the following extension of Theorem 0.6 product areas.
\medskip

{\statement
Theorem 0.7.\pointir}{\it Let $X_1,\ldots,X_k$ Stein spaces,
provided comprehensive continuous psh functions $\varphi_j:X_j\to[-\infty,R_j[$
such as the open $(dd^c\varphi_j)^{n_j}\equiv 0$ $\{\varphi_j>A_j\}$,
$n_j = \dim X_j$. So if $V$ is psh on $X_1\times\cdots\times X_k$,
the average standard $L^p$
$$
M^p_V(r_1,\ldots,r_k) = \smash{
\Big[\mu_{r_1}\otimes\cdots\otimes\mu_{r_k}(V^p_+)\Big]^{1/p}}
$$
is convex in the same $(r_1,\ldots,r_k)\in
\prod_{1\leq j\leq k}{}]A_j,R_j[$ variables.}
\medskip

In paragraphs 7 and 8, we make the additional assumption
the volume of $X$ has moderate growth to infinity (the
``radius'' $R$ is here assumed to~$+\infty$). In a way
precise, we assume that
$$
\lim_{r\to+\infty}{1\over r}\Vert\mu_r\Vert = 0 .
\leqno(0.8)
$$
Under this assumption, the formula of Jensen 0.3 implies inequality
following fundamental~:
$$
\int_Xdd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\leq
\liminf_{r\to+\infty}~{1\over r}\;\mu_r(V_+),
\leqno(0.9)
$$
which follows a number of results concerning the
growth of psh functions or distribution of values
holomorphic functions (as suggested in Article\eject
N.~Sibony M.W. and Wong [SW]). In particular, any function
psh or holomorphic bounded on $X$ is constant.

Given a holomorphic function on $f$ $X$ we define secondly the ``degree'' of $f$ relatively to $\varphi$ by
$$
\delta_\varphi(f) = \limsup_{r\to+\infty}~{1\over r}\;\mu_r(\log_+|f|),\qquad
\leqno(0.10)
$$
%
and we say that is $f$ $\varphi$ -polynomiale is if $\delta_\varphi(f)$
finished. Inequality (0.9) results while the cancellation order $f$
a regular point $a\in X$ verifies the estimate:
$$
\ord\nolimits_a(f) \leq C(a)\,\delta_\varphi(f).
$$
By elementary reasoning linear algebra due to Siegel, he
algebraicity result the following theorem ( $X$ assumed irreducible).
\medskip

{\statement Theorem 0.11.\pointir}{\it Either $K_\varphi(X)$ body
meromorphic functions of the form where $f/g$ $f$ and are $g$

\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (b) If} $\deg\tr_\bC K_\varphi(X) = \dim_\bC X$, then the body
$K_\varphi(X)$ is finitely.\medskip}}

As a special case of this theorem, we find the result
W.~Stoll [St1] characterizing algebraic varieties by $\bC^N$
the property that the growth area is minimal.

The second part B of this work is devoted to a characterization
of affine algebraic varieties with an intrinsic geometric criterion, 
involving the finite volume
Monge-Amp\`ere and a reduction of the Ricci curvature. In a way
precisely, we prove the following result:
\medskip

{\statement
Theorem 0.12.\pointir}{\it Either $X$ analytical variety
complex, smooth, connected, dimension~$n$. So is $X$
analytically isomorphic to an affine algebraic variety if $X_\alg$
and only if $X$ satisfies condition{\rm (c)} below and if
$X$ has a function of exhaustion of $\varphi$ strictly psh
 $\cC^\infty$ class such as:
{\parindent = 6.5mm
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (a)} $\displaystyle\Vol(X) = \int_X (dd^c\varphi)^n <+\infty~;$
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (b)} The Ricci curvature of the metric $\beta= dd^c(e^\varphi)$
admits a reduction of the form
$$
\Ricci(\beta)\geq-{1\over 2}dd^c\psi,
$$
with $\psi\in\cC^\infty(X,\bR)$ where $\psi\leq A\varphi + B$ and $A$, are $B$
constants${}\geq 0~;$
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (c)} even degree cohomology spaces $H^{2q}(X,\bR)$
are finite dimensional.\vskip2pt}
The ring of regular functions of the algebraic structure is $X_\alg$
then given by the $K_\varphi(X)\cap\cO(X)$ intersection.\medskip}

Following the work of W.~Stoll on varieties strictly
parabolic (see\ [St2] and [Bu]), D.~Burns posed the problem of the
characterization of affine algebraic varieties in terms of
functions of exhaustion with specific properties, checking
for example the condition of homogeneity in $(dd^c\varphi)^n\equiv 0$
outside a compact. 0.12 The theorem provides a partial response
this issue. This second in line conditions
sufficient obtained by Mok Siu and Yau [SY], [MI], [Mok1,2,3], although
that our assumptions are significantly different from those of
abovementioned work. Our argument is, moreover
similar in outline to the approach taken by [Mok1,2,3].

Section 10 demonstrates the necessity of the conditions~ 0.12 (a, b, c)
for any algebraic set $X\subset\bC^N$. The function $\varphi$
is then given by $\varphi(z) = \log(1+|z|^2)$, so that the
 $dd^c\varphi$ metric coincides with the metric of Fubini-Study
projective space~$\bP^N$. Through an explicit calculation of the curvature
Ricci we check the curvature of inequality (b) takes place with
$\psi = \log\sum_{K,L}|J_{K,L}|^2$ where $J_{K,L}$ designate
Jacobian determinants associated with a system of polynomial equations
~ of$X$. We show more against by-example that the condition
curvature (b) is indispensable.

Proof of the sufficiency of conditions (a, b, c) is the subject
of\S11,12,13. General demonstration scheme is as follows,
With $L^2$ estimates Hörmander-Nakano-Skoda for the operator
$\overline\partial$ and through~ hypothesis (b), a system built
$F =(f_1,\ldots,f_N)$ functions holomorphic $\varphi$ -polynomiales that,
outside an analytic set $S\subset X$ defines an embedding
of $X\ssm S$ in~$\bC^N$. Assuming (a) finite volume,
the algebraicity 0.11 theorem implies that the degree of transcendence
 $f_1,\ldots,f_N$ of functions equals $n = \dim X$. The morphism $F$
send therefore $X$ in an algebraic variety $M\subset\bC^N$
dimension~$n$.

The main challenge that remains is then to prove that
the dip is almost surjective, that is to say the open $\Omega= 
F(X\ssm S)$ is an open Zariski~$M$. We get this result
showing first that the $(1,1)$ Platform extends $F_*(dd^c\varphi)$
a closed positive current $T$ finite mass~$M$ as $T = 0$
on $M\ssm\Omega$~; given the mass resulting estimates
construction, it is mainly through the integration method
by parts developed by H.~Skoda [SK 5] and H.~El Mir [EM]. To give
an overview of the result of reasoning, look at the already significant case
where $N = n$, i.e.\ $M =\bC^n$ the case. There is then a function
psh $V$ on $\bC^n$ to minimal growth, i.e.\ $V(z)\leq C_1\log_+|z|+C_0$,
as $dd^cV = T$. By construction, the function
$\tau = V - \varphi \circ F^{-1}$ is pluriharmonique on~$\Omega$ to
more $\tau$ approaches $-\infty$ at any point~$\partial\Omega$. he
The result is that the closed assembly $M\ssm\Omega$ is multipolar. For
 $M\ssm\Omega$ show that is actually an algebraic set, our
method is to verify, using the theorem again
algebraicity of 0.11, the $1$ Platform is holomorphic $h = \partial\tau$
extends in a rational meromorphic form on $M = \bC^n$.

Where $M$ is an affine algebraic variety any, the
link in $\bC^n$ between -courants positive $(1,1)$
closed finite projective mass $T$ psh functions and growth
Minimum no longer applies. However, we can show (see
Appendix\S15) that $dd^c V\geq T$ differential inequality is
always resolves on $M$ with psh $V$ solution such that the current
$dd^cV - T$ either $\cC^\infty$ class and growth
polynomial. The end of the demonstration is then almost
identical. The hypothesis (c), in turn, serves to demonstrate that the
 ``Zariski topology'' on $X$ is quasi-compact and
So $X$ that can be covered by a finite number of open the
 $X\ssm S$ form (cf.\\S13). We do not know in fact if the hypothesis
(C) is really essential.

Finally, note that the 0.12 theorem can be extended to areas
complexes isolated Singu\-larities (see\\S9), but the extension to the case
any raises difficulties which will be studied\S14.

\section{1}{Courants and plurisubharmonic functions\\
on complex spaces.}

The purpose of this section is to provide a definition of current and
psh functions of a complex analytic space eventually
singular. The reader who wishes to consider in the following that the
smooth case can jump directly to\S2.

Let $X$ be a complex surface of reduced sheer size~$n$, $X_\reg$ (resp.\
$X_\sing$) all of its regular points (resp.\ singular).
As the definitions that we will consider are local, we can
unrestricted $X$ assume that identifies with an analytic subset
closed an open $\Omega\subset\bC^N$ by means of an embedding
$j:X\to\Omega$.

We define the space $\cC^k_{p,q}(X)$ class Platforms $(p,q)$
$\cC^k$ on $X$, $k\in\bN\cup\{\infty\}$, as the image of the morphism
restriction
$$
j* :\cC^k_{p,q}(\Omega)\to\cC^k_{p,q}(X_\reg),
$$
equipped with the quotient topology. If $j_1:X\to\Omega_1\subset\bC^{N_1}$
Another dip, there are (locally) applications
holomorphic $f:\Omega\to\bC^{N_1}$ and $g:\Omega_1\to\bC^N$ such as
$j_1= f\circ j$ and $j = g\circ j_1$. The commutative diagram
$$
\matrix{
X&\mathop{\longarrow{10}}\limits^{j}
&f^{-1}(\Omega_1)\subset\Omega\cr
\noalign{\vskip5pt}
j_1\bigg\downarrow&\phantom{{}\longrightarrow{}}&
\bigg\downarrow\Id\times f\cr
\Omega_1\supset g^{-1}(\Omega)&
\mathop{\longarrow{10}}\limits_{\textstyle g\times\Id}&
\Omega\times\Omega_1,\cr}\kern40pt
$$
watch while the morphisms $j$ and $j_1$ induce much the same
image space $\cC^k_{p,q}(X)$ because $\Id\times f$ and are $g\times\Id$
Closed smooth dips.
\medskip

{\statement
Definition 1.1.\pointir}{\it by $\cD_{p,q}(X)$ $($ resp designates.\
$\cD^k_{p,q}(X))$ space on the Platforms $(p,q)$ class $X$ $\cC^\infty$
$($ resp.\ $\cC^k)$ and compact support, endowed with the topology induetive limit.
The dual space $\cD'_{p,q}(X)$ is by definition space currents
bidimension of $(p,q)$ and bidegree $(n-p,n-q)$ on $X$. The
currents belonging to the subspace will be called $[\cD^k_{p,q}(X)]'$
Current order~$k$.}
\medskip

If $T\in [\cD^k_{p,q}(X)]'$ the current $j_*T\in[\cD^k_{p,q}(\Omega)]'$
defined by
$$
\langle j_*T,v\rangle = \langle T,j*v\rangle
$$
 $v\in\cD^k_{p,q}(\Omega)$ for any form, has support in $j(\Omega)$.
However, for $k\geq 1$ a current $\theta\in\smash{[\cD^k_{p,q}(\Omega)]'}$
support in $j(\Omega)$ not necessarily from a current
$T$ set to $X$ although $X$ is smooth.

Differential operators $d$, $\partial$, $\overline\partial$
usual and the operator of exterior multiplication by a form
$\cC^\infty$ other hand are extended by the current duality,
just as in the smooth case. It would be particularly
interesting to know generally calculate the cohomology groups
 $d$ of local and $\overline\partial$~ operators; we do not even know
if not done in these groups are always zero in the case of
whatever singularities.
\medskip

{\statement
Definition 1.2.\pointir}{\it A current $T\in\cD'_{p,p}(X)$ be said

$$
${}\geq 0$ is a measurement for any system of $(1,0)$ Platforms
$(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_p)$ of $\cC^\infty$ class on~$X$.}
\medskip

This amounts to saying that the current is $j_*T$${}\geq 0$ on~$\Omega$~;
in particular, on current $T\geq 0$ $X$ is necessarily order~$0$.

Now let $F : X\to Y$ a morphism of analytic spaces $X$, $Y$
respective dimensions $n$, $m$. To ensure that the
morphism inverse image
$$
F^*:\cC^k_{p,q}(Y)\to \cC^k_{p,q}(X)
$$
is well defined, just check the following lemma~:
\medskip

{\statement

\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. Presumably smooth and related $X$. If $F(X)\not
\subset Y_\sing$ then $F^{-1}(Y_\reg)$ is dense in $X$ and the result
follows by continuity. The only problem is if
$F(X)\subset Y_\sing$. By induction on the dimension
of $Y$ and decomposing $F$ as
$$
X\mathop{\longrightarrow}\limits^{\scriptstyle F} Y_\sing\hookrightarrow Y
$$
we see that it suffices to consider instead of $F$ the case of the morphism
 $Y_\sing\hookrightarrow Y$ of inclusion. Lemma 1.3 then follows from
 $\alpha$ and continuity of the following lemma~:

{\it Demonstration}. This is a consequence of the existence of stratifications

Suppose that the morphism $F:X\to Y$ own. We define
the direct image enforcement
$$
F_*:[\cD^k_{p,q}(X)]'\lra [\cD^k_{p,q}(Y)]'
$$
by duality, asking for any current $T\in[\cD^k_{p,q}(X)]'$
and any form $\alpha\in\cD^k_{p,q}(Y)$
$$
\langle F_*T,\alpha\rangle = \langle T,F^*\alpha\rangle.
$$
If $T$${}\geq 0$ is, it is clearly the case for $F_*T$. In addition, the
direct image morphism commutes with $F_*$ $d$ operators $d^c$,
$\partial$, $\overline\partial$. If $T$${}\geq 0$ is closed, is $F_*T$
therefore also${}\geq 0$ closed.

(A) Uniqueness{\it $V^*$}. As $V^*$ is upper semi-continuous,
we have for all $y \in Y$
$$
V^*(y) = \limsup_{x\in X\ssm Y,\;x\to y}V^*(x)\geq
\limsup_{x\in X\ssm Y,\;x\to y}V(x).

Conversely, choose a holomorphic such $f:\Delta\to X$
and that $f(0)=y$ $f(\Delta)\not\subset Y$. So $0$ is isolated in
$f^{-1}(Y)$ and as $V^*\circ f$ is psh on~$\Delta$ he comes

(B){\it Plurisousharmonicité of $V^*$}. The result is local to $X$.
According desingularization theorem of Hironaka [Hi], there
 $X'$ a smooth space and a proper change $\sigma : X'\to X$~;
by definition, is proper and $\sigma$ induced outside a
analytic set $Z \subset X$ an isomorphism
$$
\sigma : X'\ssm\sigma^{-1}(Z)

$$
For $x\in X$ the $\sigma^{-1}(x)$ fiber is compact and connected.
While $\sigma^{-1}(x)$ was not connected, the point would be a $x$
open neighborhood irreducible $U$ ($X$ is assumed locally irreducible)
as $\sigma^{-1}(U)$ is not related~; but then would $U\ssm Z$
related and not related $\sigma^{-1}(U)\ssm \sigma^{-1}(Z)$, which is
absurd. The $V\circ\sigma$ psh function on\hbox{$X'\ssm \sigma^{-1}(Y)$}
and locally increased near~$\sigma^{-1}(Y)$. By Theorem
of Brelot on the smooth case, $V\circ\sigma$ extends to a function
psh $V'$ on~$X'$. The $V'$ function is necessarily constant on
 $\sigma^{-1}(x)$ fiber, so $V'$ induced transition to a quotient
function $V^*$ upper semi-continuous on~$X$. show now
that is $V^*$ psh on $X$ using~1.7 theorem. Given a

{\it Demonstration}. $V$ being locally increased by definition,
we can assume $V \leq 0$. Left to rotate the
coordinates, it~existe at any point $X$ a local dip
$j:X\hookrightarrow P$ a polydisk of $\bC^N$ as it has
 $\pi^I:X\to P^I$ own projections of finite fibers

analytical $S_I\subset P^I$ together such that the restriction
$\pi^I: X\ssm (\pi^I)^{-1}(S_I)\to P^I\ssm S_I$ is a finished coating.
The $\pi^I_*V$ defined function
$$
\pi^I_*V(y)(y) = \sum_{x\in(\pi^I)^{-1}(y)}V(x)
$$
psh is${}\leq 0$ on $P^I\ssm S_I$, thus extends into a psh function
$V_I$ on $P^I$ whole. As the area measurement is given by $X$
$$
d\sigma_X = \sum_{|I|=n} (\pi^I)^* d\lambda_{\bC^n},

where $d\lambda$ is Lebesgue measure, the conclusion then follows from
that the $V_I$ are locally integrable on $P^I$.\hfil\square
\medskip

The proposed 1.8 shows that we can consider any function
psh on $X$ as a current bidegree~$(0,0)$. For regularization
a local extension to $V$ $\bC^N$ and passage to the limit
decreasing, it is easily verified that the $(1,1)$ -current $dd^cV = 
2i\partial\overline\partial V$ is positive on $X$.

Unlike the smooth case, the assumption that $V$ either locally
plus is fundamental. Consider, for example. curve

not necessarily almost everywhere to a psh function, as shown

psh is on $X$ by Theorem 1.6. so we $dd^cV_\varepsilon\geq 0$.
As $dd^cV_\varepsilon$ converges weakly to when $dd^cV$
$\varepsilon$ tends to~$0$, it follows that $dd^cV\geq 0$.

Regarding the latter claim, provided we

Unequal Chern-Levine-Nirenberg.}

In this section, we recall the definition of operators
Monge-Amp\`ere of $(dd^c)^k$ introduced by Bedford and Taylor [BT1], [BT2].
This definition allows to make sense of the current
$dd^cV_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^cV_k$ when $V_j$ are functions
psh bounded. We need here to consider the case a little more
General $V_j$ where one of the functions may not be limited, and we
will restore in this framework demonstrated the inequalities
Chern-Levine-Nirenberg [CLN]. Finally, we study as in [BT2]
the continuity of the operator relating to boundaries $(dd^c)^k$
decreasing of psh functions.

Let $\varphi_1$, $\varphi_2$, $\ldots\,$, $\varphi_k$ functions
psh locally bounded on $X$ and $V$ any psh function.
According Bedford-Taylor [BT2] we can define the current closed${}\geq 0$
$dd^cV\wedge dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k$
by induction on $k$ posing
$$
dd^cV\wedge dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k=
dd^c\big(\varphi_k\,dd^cV\wedge dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge 
dd^c\varphi_{k-1}\big).
\leqno(2.1)
$$
Positivity side is obvious by induction hypothesis
if $\varphi_k\in\cC^\infty(X)$~; the general case follows by
regularization $\varphi_k$ and transition to the low limit
space currents.

 $\Omega= \{\rho<0\}$ be a relatively compact open in $X$,
 $\rho$ defined by a function strictly psh in $\cC^\infty$
 $\Omega'$ neighborhood of $\Omega$ and as $d\rho\neq 0$
on~$\partial\Omega$. For any real $a > 0$ and whole $0\leq k\leq n$
is placed
$$
\beta_k=|\rho|^{k+a}(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}+(k+a) |\rho|^{k-1+a} d\rho\wedge
d^c\rho\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k-1}
$$
and is designated by the $\Vert v\Vert_p$ $L^p$ a standard feature on $v$ $\Omega$ for Measuring~$\beta_0$, $p\in[1,+\infty]$. The mass of the current (2.1) then admits the following estimates (see\ [CLN]).

{\it Demonstration}. Through the approximation Lemma 2.4 below, it
Presumably the $V_j$ and $\varphi_j$ are~$\cC^\infty$ class.
An immediate calculation gives
$$
\eqalign{
d^c\beta_k&=-2(k+a)\,|\rho|^{k-1+a}\,d^c\rho\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k},\cr
dd^c\beta_k&=2(k+a)\,\Big[-|\rho|^{k-1+a}\,(dd^c\rho)^{n-k+1}+
(k-1+a)\,d\rho\wedge d^c\rho\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}\Big],\cr}
$$
hence the inequality forms
$$
|dd^c\beta_k|\leq 2(k+a)\beta_{k-1}.
$$
Note $I_k$, $J_k$ integrals (a), (b) and respectively
$\psi_k = dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k$. According to
the formula of integration by parts
Lemma 2.5 and taking into account that
$$
\beta_{k+1|\partial\Omega}=d^c\beta_{k+1|\partial\Omega}=0,
$$
he comes
$$
\eqalign{
I_k
&=\int_\Omega dd^c\beta_{k+1}\wedge\varphi_k\,dd^cV\wedge\psi_{k-1}\cr
&\leq 2(k+1+a)\,\Vert\varphi_k\Vert_\infty\int_\Omega\beta_k\wedge

&\leq 2(1+a)\int_\Omega|V|\,|\rho|^a(dd^c\rho)^n
\leq 2(1+a)\,\Vert V\Vert_1.\cr}
$$
This demonstrates (a) by induction with $C_1(k.a)=2^{k+1}(1+a)\ldots(k+1+a)$,
inequality is also satisfied even if~$a=0$. On the other hand if
$k\geq 1$ obtained
$$
\eqalign{

\wedge\psi_{k-1}+2V\,d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\beta_k\wedge\psi_{k-1}\cr}
$$
by integrating the parts $-2\varphi_k\,dV\wedge d^c\beta_k\wedge
\psi_{k-1}$ end to the second line. Assume now and $\varphi_k> 0$
the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality is applied to the component of bidegree
$(n-k+1, n-k+1)$ current
$$
2d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\beta_k=-4(k+a)\,|\rho|^{k-1+a}d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\rho
\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k},
$$
which gives the upper bound
$$
\Big[4(k+a)^2\varphi_k|\rho|^{k-2+a}d\rho\wedge d^c\rho+
|\rho|^{k+a}{d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\varphi_k\over\varphi_k}\Big]\wedge
(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}.
$$
The result
$$
\eqalign{
J_k\leq\int_\Omega\varphi_k|V|\Big[&-dd^c\beta_k+
4(k+a)^2|\rho|^{k-2+a}d\rho\wedge d^c\rho\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}\Big]

&+\int_\Omega|V|\,
|\rho|^{k+a}(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}\wedge{d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\varphi_k\over\varphi_k}

$$
The shape brackets in the first integral equals
$$
2(k+a)\Big[|\rho|^{k-1+a}(dd^c\rho)^{n-k+1}+
(k+1+a)|\rho|^{k-2+a}d\rho\wedge d^c\rho\wedge(dd^c\rho)^{n-k}\Big]
\leq C_4\beta_{k-1}
$$
with $C_4=C_4(k,a)={2(k+a)(k+1+a)\over k-1+a}$. We obtain
finally
$$
J_k\leq C_4\Vert\varphi_k\Vert_\infty J_{k-1}
+\int_\Omega|V|\,\beta_k\wedge\psi_{k-1}\wedge
{d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\varphi_k\over\varphi_k}.
$$
Note $J'_k$ the integral obtained by replacing $\varphi_k$
$\varphi'_k= \exp(B\varphi_k)$ in and ask $J_k$
$M = \Vert\varphi_k\Vert_\infty$. He comes
$$
\eqalign{
dd^c\varphi'&=e^{B\varphi_k}\big(B\,dd^c\varphi_k + 
B^2\,d\varphi_k\wedge d^c\varphi_k\big)\geq
B\,e^{-BM}dd^c\varphi_k+{d\varphi'_k\wedge d^c\varphi'_k\over \varphi'_k},\cr
B\,e^{-BM}J_k&\leq J'_k-\int_\Omega|V|\,\beta_k\wedge\psi_{k-1}\wedge
{d\varphi'_k\wedge d^c\varphi'_k\over \varphi'_k}
\leq C_4(k,a)\,e^{BM}J_{k-1}.\cr}
$$
As $\inf_{B>0}{1\over B}e^{2BM}=2eM=2e\,\Vert\varphi_k\Vert_\infty$ This
completes the proof of (b) by induction on $k$, with constant
$$
C_2(k,a) = (4e)^k\;{k+a\over a}\,(2+a)\cdots (k+1+a).
$$
To prove (c), assume first that $V_1=V_2=\ldots = V_k = v \geq 0$.
As
$$
\Big(dd^cv^{{k\over k-1}}\Big)^{k-1}\geq v\Big({k\over k-1}\,dd^cv\Big)^{k-1},
$$
integration by parts gives
$$
\int_\Omega\beta_k\wedge(dd^cv)^k=\int_\Omega dd^c\beta_k\wedge
v\,(dd^cv)^{k-1}\le
2(k+a)\Big({k-1\over k}\Big)^{k-1}
\int_\Omega\beta_{k-1}\wedge\Big(dd^cv^{{k\over k-1}}\Big)^{k-1}.
$$
By induction on $k$ this in turn leads to inequality
$$
\int_\Omega\beta_k\wedge(dd^cv)^k\leq 2^k(1+a)...(k+a)
{(k-1)!\over k^{k-1}}\int_\Omega\beta_0v^k.
$$
Now replace by $v$
$$
v = {V_1\over\Vert V_1\Vert_k}+\cdots+{V_k\over\Vert V_k\Vert_k}.
$$
He comes
$$
{k!\over\Vert V_1\Vert_k\cdots\Vert V_k\Vert_k}\int_\Omega
\beta_k\wedge dd^cV_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^cV_k\leq
2^k(1+a)...(k+a){(k-1)!\over k^{k-1}}\int_\Omega\beta_0v^k
$$
while $\Vert v\Vert_k\leq k$. Inequality (c) follows with
$$
C_3(k,a) = 2^k(1+a)\ldots(k+a).
\eqno\square
$$
An immediate consequence of Theorem 2.2~ (b) is that the current

be placed in an open $\Omega = \{\rho < 0\}\compact X$. We go
now back to the situation where $\varphi_j$, $\varphi_j^\nu$

without boundary terms. either $\bR^2\ni(u,v)\mapsto\lambda(u,v)$

We can finally assume that $\varphi_j^\nu=\varphi_j=\varepsilon^{-2}

 $\psi\in\cC^\infty_{n-k-1,n-k-1}(\overline\Omega)$ for any form such as
$\psi_{|\partial\Omega}= 0$ (note that by hypothesis
$\varphi^\nu_{k|\partial\Omega}= 0$). Even replace $\psi$
successively $\rho(dd^c\rho)^{n-k-1}$ and
$\psi+A\rho(dd^c\rho)^{n-k-1}\kern-0.5pt,$ $A\gg 0$, can
assume $dd^c\psi\geq 0$

The last integral tends to $0$ by monotone convergence, which
completes the proof of 2.6~ (a).
\medskip

{\it Proof}~ 2.7 (a). immediate consequence of~ 2.4 (b) and 2.6~ (a).
\medskip

{\it Proof}~ 2.6 (b). Inequality~ 2.2 (b) implies that the sequence
$V^\nu\,dd^c\varphi_1^\nu\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k^\nu$
mass is locally uniformly bounded on $X$. More worthless
 $T$ adhesion of this sequence is such that
$$
T\leq V\,dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k,
$$
with equality $\Omega\ssm\Omega_\varepsilon$ (where
$\varphi_j^\nu = \varphi_j = \varepsilon^{-2}\rho$). According~ 2.6 (a) and
~ 2.7 (a) was the other
$$
dd^cT= dd^cV\wedge dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k=
dd^c\big(V\,dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k\big).
$$
Now distinguish two cases according to the value of the integer~$k$.
\medskip

If $k\leq n-1$, Lemma 2.5 applied $v = \rho(dd^c\rho)^{n-k-1}$
causes the positive current
$$
u = V\,dd^c\varphi_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dd^c\varphi_k - T
$$

If $k = n$, we can consider $V$, $\varphi_1$, $\ldots$~, $\varphi_k$
as functions on $X\times\bC$ not dependent on the last
variable, and apply the results~ 2.6 (b) already known
$X\times\bC$. Demonstrating~ 2.6 (c) is identical.\hfil\square

therefore the low 2.6 convergence theorem remains valid for
any product or $V$ $dd^cV$ by $(1,1)$ Platforms of $dd^c\varphi_j$ type
$d\varphi_j\wedge d^c\varphi_j$, or (polarization)
$d\varphi_i\wedge d^c\varphi_j+d\varphi_j\wedge d^c\varphi_i$.
\medskip

{\statement Note 2.10.\pointir} The reader will find a
interesting discussion on the problem of definition and
continuity of the operator Monge-Amp\`ere in [Ki] and [it]. In
particular, it is possible to extend some of the results
in case the previous $\varphi_j$ functions are no longer
necessarily bounded, provided they make an assumption
compactness on the poles of $\varphi_j$. We assume that
exists a compact $K\subset X$ as $\varphi_1,\ldots,\varphi_k$
are locally bounded on $X\ssm K$. Then the definition (2.1)
Lemma 2.4~ (a) and Theorem 2.6~ (a) remain valid.
\medskip

To see this, we observe that the problem arises only
near~$K$. $\rho$ is a function $\cC^\infty$

$K\subset\omega\compact\Omega=\{\rho<0\}\compact X$.

\section{3}{Mesures and Monge-Amp\`ere formula of Jensen.}

At any $\varphi$ psh function on continuous and comprehensive space
Stein, we will associate canonically a family
positive measures carried by sets of level
$\varphi$. These measures appear naturally when seeking
expand the formula of Jensen in several variables. The main
ideas of this paragraph are based on calculations made by P.~Lelong
[Le1] to show the existence of Lelong numbers of a current
closed positive. We take essentially the notation [De4]
[DE5] (see also the article by H.~Skoda [Sk1]).

Consider a Stein space $X$ pure $n$ dimension reduced,
with a psh function continues $\varphi:X\to[-\infty,R[\,$ where $R\in{}
]-\infty,+\infty]$. For there is $r<R$
$$
B(r) =\big\{z\in X\,;\;\varphi(z) < r\big\},\qquad
B(r) = \big\{z\in X\,;\;\varphi(z) \leq r\big\}
$$
the ``pseudoboules'' associated with open and closed
$\varphi$ (care will be taken to the fact that is not $\overline B(r)$
necessarily adhesion $B(r)$~!). We assume that is $\varphi$
{ exhaustive\it}, that is to say that the pseudoboules $\overline B(r)$,
$r<R$ are{ compact\it}. Finally we set for all $r\in [-\infty,R[$
$$
\eqalign{
&S(r) = \big\{z \in X\,;\;\varphi(z) = r\big\} = \overline B(r)\ssm B(r),\cr
&\varphi_r = \max(\varphi,r),\qquad\alpha = dd^c\varphi = 2i\,\partial
\overline\partial\varphi.\cr}
$$
The current $(dd^c\varphi_r)^n$ is well defined by (2.1) if
$r>-\infty$ and if $r=-\infty$, $(dd^c\varphi_r)^n = (dd^c\varphi)^n$
exists by Remark 2.10.
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 3.1.\pointir}{\it The implementation $r\mapsto (dd^c\varphi_r)^n$
is continuous in space $[-\infty,R[$ measurements on $X$ provided with the
weak topology.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. The right continuity follows from Theorem 2.6~ (a)
while the left continuity is obtained by writing
$$
(dd^c\varphi_r)^n = \big(dd^c\max(\varphi-r,0)\big)^n.\eqno\square
$$
As $(dd^c\varphi_r)^n$ sucks on $B(r)$ and coincides with $(dd^c\varphi)^n$
on $X\ssm\overline B(r)$, continuity left leads
$$
(dd^c\varphi_r)^n\geq \bOne_{X\ssm B(r)}(dd^c\varphi)^n,
$$
 $\bOne_A$ where denotes the characteristic function of a part~$A\subset X$.
The results below immediately follow from these remarks and justified
the following definition.

We thank E.~Bedford for having suggested this
definition, which simplifies the one we used in
earlier version of this work. At any point where is $\varphi$

$0\leq\chi'_\nu\leq 1$ with $\lim\chi'_\nu(t)$ equal to $0$ for $t<r$ and

&=\int_{\Omega\cap S(r)}h\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d^c\varphi+
\int_{\Omega\ssm B(r)}h\,(dd^c\varphi)^n\cr}
$$
according to Stokes' formula. We therefore deduce $\Omega$ on equality
measures
$$
(dd^c\varphi_r)^n=(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d^c\varphi_{|S(r)}+
\bOne_{\Omega\ssm B(r)}(dd^c\varphi)^n.

$$
We can now prove the formula of Jensen-Lelong we
aircraft in sight.
\medskip

{\statement Theorem 3.4.\pointir}{\it Either $V$ a psh function on $X$.
So $V$ $\mu_r$ is integrable for all $r\in{}]-\infty,R[\,$. Furthermore
$$
\int_{-\infty}^rdt\int_{B(t)}dd^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}=
\mu_r(V)-\int_{B(r)}V\,\alpha^n,
$$
where $\alpha=dd^c\varphi$. The two members are finished if $\inf_X\varphi>
-\infty$ or $\inf_{B(r)}V>-\infty$.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. Integrability of $V$ for $\mu_r$
(And $\overline\mu_r$) results from the fact that $V$ is integrable
$(dd^c\varphi_r)^n$ by Theorem 2.2~ (b). Note also that the
integrals and $\int_{B(t)}dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\geq 0$
$\int_{B(r)}V\,(dd^c\varphi)^n$ well make sense under the remark 2.10,
the first being also always convergent. The second converges if
\hbox{$\inf_X\varphi>-\infty$} through~ 2.2 (b), or if $\inf_{B(r)}V>-\infty$
through 2.10. To prove the formula 3.4, it is first assumed
$$
\inf_X\varphi>-\infty\quad\hbox{et}\quad\inf_{B(r)}V>-\infty,
$$
and we give $c > r$. Fubini's theorem implies
$$
\eqalign{
\int_{-\infty}^cdt\int_{B(t)}dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}
&=\int_{B(c)}\bigg[\int_{\{\varphi<t<c\}}dt\bigg]\,dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\cr
&=\int_{B(c)}(c-\varphi)\,dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}.\cr}
$$
According to Stokes formula, we have the equality
$$
\eqalign{
\int_{B(c)}d\Big[(c-\varphi)\,&d^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}+
V\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d^c\varphi\Big]\cr
&=\int_{B(c)}d\Big[(c-\varphi_r)\,d^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi_r)^{n-1}+
V\,(dd^c\varphi_r)^{n-1}\wedge d^c\varphi\Big]\cr}
$$
since the currents to integrate coincide on the crown
$B(c)\ssm\overline B(r)$. If we develop the first complete, it comes
$$
\int_{B(c)}(c-\varphi)\,dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}+V\,(dd^c\varphi)^n+
\int_{B(c)}(dV\wedge d^c\varphi-d\varphi\wedge d^cV)\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}
$$
and as the $(1,1)$ type $dV\wedge d^c\varphi-d\varphi\wedge
d^cV$ component is zero, the second sum is zero. therefore
$$
\int_{B(c)}(c-\varphi)\,dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}+V\,(dd^c\varphi)^n=
\int_{B(c)}(c-\varphi_r)\,dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi_r)^{n-1}+V\,(dd^c\varphi_r)^n.
$$
Let us now tend to $c$ $r$ right. As
$0\leq c-\varphi_r\leq c-r$ it comes to the limit
$$
\int_{\overline B(r)}(r-\varphi)\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}+V\,(dd^c\varphi)^n
=\int_{\overline B(r)}V\,(dd^c\varphi_r)^n=\overline\mu_r(V).
$$
Given (3.5) and equal $\overline\mu_r=\mu_r+\bOne_{S(r)}
(dd^c\varphi)^n$ This demonstrates the formula under 3.4
the restrictive assumption that $\varphi$ and $V$ are undervalued. In the case
Generally, we can write $V =\lim_{\nu\to+\infty}V_\nu$ which is $V_\nu$
a decreasing sequence of psh functions on $\cC^\infty$ $X$ (cf.\ [FN]).
 $a<r$ be fixed. According to the above, by replacing $\varphi$
 $\varphi_a$ the locally bounded function, equality is achieved
$$
\mu_r(V_\nu)=\int_a^r dt\int_{B(t)} dd^cV_\nu\wedge(dd^c\varphi_a)^{n-1}+
\int_{B(r)}V_\nu\,(dd^c\varphi_a)^n.
$$
A passage to the limit when $\nu$ tends to give $+\infty$
$$

in fact, the measurement converges $dd^cV_\nu\wedge(dd ^c\varphi_a)^{n-1}$
weakly to $dd^cV\wedge(dd ^c\varphi_a)^{n-1}$ through theorem
~ 2.6 (a), and this measure is assessed on the continuous function
$\bOne_{B(r)}(r-\varphi_a)$ according to (3.5). The Stokes theorem shows
that the measure
$$
dd^cV\wedge\big[(dd^c\varphi_a)^{n-1}-(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\big]
$$
is zero integral over $B(t)$ for all~$t > a$, therefore obtained
$$
\int_a^r dt\int_{B(t)} dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}=\mu_r(V)-
\int_{B(r)}V\,(dd^c\varphi_a)^n.
$$
This formula implies that the continuous functions
$a\mapsto\int_{B(r)}V_\nu\,(dd^c\varphi_a)^n$ are increasing
on $[-\infty,r[\,$. Decreasing their limits
$a\mapsto\int_{B(r)}V\,(dd^c\varphi_a)^n$ is continuous right,
which allows to pass to the limit in $a=-\infty$.\hfil\square

The formula 3.4 we deduce immediately the similar formula for
 $\overline\mu_r$~ measures:
$$
\int_{-\infty}^rdt\int_{B(t)}dd^cV\wedge(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}=
\overline\mu_r(V)-\int_{\overline B(r)}V\,(dd^c\varphi)^n.

The last assertion follows from Theorem 3.2, or because we can

The purpose of this section is to set out some general properties
Residual $\overline\mu_{-\infty}$ measures. To evaluate
$\overline\mu_{-\infty}$ on concrete examples, one has the theorem
following comparison, based on the results of [De4], [DE5] on
Lelong numbers.

In particular, if when $\varphi_2\sim\varphi_1$ $\varphi_1(z)\to-\infty$,

$$
\overline\mu_{-\infty,2}(V)=\ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(V).

{\it Demonstration}. It suffices to show that
$\overline\mu_{-\infty,2}(V)\geq \ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(V)$
assuming\break $\liminf\varphi_2/\varphi_1 > 1$. fix $r < R_2$
and ask where $\varphi=\max(\varphi_1-A,\varphi_2)$ $A$ is chosen large enough
that coincides with $\varphi$ $\varphi_2$ near $S_2(r)$. are
$\mu_r$ measures associated~$\varphi$. The $\liminf 
\varphi_2/\varphi_1 > 1$ hypothesis implies that there is such $t < r$
 $\varphi$ that coincides with $\varphi_1-A$ on $B_1(t) =\{\varphi_1 < t\}$.
We obtain
$$
\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(V)=\lim_{t\to-\infty}\overline\mu_{t,1}(V)=
\lim_{t\to-\infty}\overline\mu_{t}(V)\leq \mu_r(V)=\mu_{r,2}(V),

$$

Under the above assumptions, we may conjecture that the inequality
between measures\break $\overline\mu_{-\infty,2}\geq\ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}$
always occurs, but the conclusions of Theorem 4.2 we have not
demonstrated it. However, we have the result
especially~ following:

$$
In particular, if $S_1(-\infty)$ is totally disconnected, it was
$\overline\mu_{-\infty,2}\geq\ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}$.}

{\it Demonstration}. There is an increasing sequence of compact $K_\nu\subset A$
such that there is $\overline\mu_{-\infty,j}(A\ssm K_\nu) < 2^{-\nu}$,
$j = 1,2$. The equivalence relation whose classes are
Related components $S_1(-\infty)$ is closed graph
($S_1(-\infty)$ being compact). The saturated $\tilde K_\nu$ of $K_\nu$
is a compact subset of~$A$~; more $\tilde K_\nu$ is
intersection of a decreasing sequence of parts that are open
and closed in $S_1(-\infty)$ (cf.\ Bourbaki [Bo], chap.~II,\S4,
n${}^\circ$ 4). This suggests that $A$ is opened and closed
in $S_1(-\infty)$. There is then an open $U\compact X$
as $A = U\cap S_1(-\infty)$, $\partial U\cap S_1(-\infty) = \emptyset$.
And either $r_0 = \inf_{\partial U}\varphi_1 > -\infty$
$$
\Omega = \big\{z\in U\,;\;\varphi_1(z) < r_0\big\}.
$$
The open meeting is $\Omega$ related components $B_1(r_0)$ so
$\Omega$ of Stein~; more $\varphi_1:\Omega\to [-\infty,r_0[$
is exhaustive. Let
$$
\varphi_\nu = \max\big(\varphi_2,\nu(\varphi_1-r_0+1)\big).
$$
For $\nu > \sup_\Omega\varphi_2$, $\varphi_\nu:\Omega\to
[-\infty,\nu[$ the application is complete, while for $\nu\geq\ell$ was
$$
\liminf_{\varphi_1(z)\to-\infty}{\varphi_\nu(z)\over\varphi_1(z)}
=\liminf{\varphi_2\over\varphi_1}=\ell.
$$
According to Theorem 4.2 applied to $\varphi_1$ and $\varphi_\nu$
on~$\Omega$ he comes
$$
\overline\mu_{-\infty,\nu}(\bOne_\Omega V)
\geq \ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(\bOne_\Omega V).
$$
If $\ell$ is${}> 0$~ (only interesting case to consider) was
$S_2(-\infty)\supset S_1(-\infty)$ so\break $S_\nu(-\infty) = 
S_1(-\infty)$ and $\Omega\cap S_1(-\infty) = U\cap S_1(-\infty)= A$.
Therefore
$$
(dd^c\varphi_\nu)^n(\bOne_A V) = \overline\mu_{-\infty,\nu}(\bOne_A V)
\geq \ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(\bOne_A V).
$$
Now we observe that the $\varphi_\nu$ subsequently decreases to $\varphi_2$
on the open $B_1(r_0-1)$ when $\nu\to+\infty$ so
$(dd^c\varphi_\nu)^n$ weakly tends to $(dd^c\varphi_2)^n$ on
$B_1(r_0-1)$ from 2.6~ (a) and 2.10. As $A$ is compact and
$A\subset S_1(-\infty)\subset B_1(r_0-1)$, as is $\bOne_A V$
upper semi-continuous, we deduce the limit
$$
\overline\mu_{-\infty,2}(\bOne_A V)=
(dd^c\varphi_2)^n(\bOne_A V) \geq 
\ell^n\,\overline\mu_{-\infty,1}(\bOne_A V).\eqno\square
$$

In the conventional calculation that follows, we will need to assess
 $\Vert\mu_{-\infty}\Vert$ the mass from the function
$\varphi^*=e^\varphi$.\`A this purpose, according to the observed
~3.10 $\mu^*_r=\mu_{\log r}$ proposal that, where
$$
\overline\mu_{-\infty}(1) = \lim_{r\to 0}r^{-n}\mu^*_r(1) =

the complement of the ``diagonal''
$\Delta = \{|z_1|= \cdots = |z_n|\}$, we deduce by homogeneity
$e^\varphi$ that $(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1} = 0$ on $\bC^n\ssm\Delta$. The
proposition 3.7 then shows that the measure is $\mu_r$ support in the
distinguished board
$$
\Gamma(r) = \big\{|z_1| = \cdots = |z_n| = e^r\big\}=S(r)\cap\Delta
$$
the polydisk $B(r)$. As $\mu_r$ is invariant under rotations
preserving~$B(r)$ and as $\Vert\mu_r\Vert = (2\pi)^n$ according~4.5,
it follows that $\mu_r= d\theta_1\wedge\ldots\wedge d\theta_n$
with $z_j=e^{r+i\theta_j}$, $1\leq j\leq n$. more we get:

Example 4.6 shows that the hypothesis of plurisousharmonicité in $V$

{\it Demonstration}. It is not restrictive to assume $V\leq 0$. We
will then show that $\sup_{B(r)}V = \Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}$
Jensen applying the formula to a function exhaustion
$\varphi'$ well chosen.

 $\psi$ is strictly psh function on $X$ $\cC^2$ class,
$z_0\in B(r)\cap X_\reg$ a regular point and $U\compact B(r)\cap X_\reg$
a neighborhood of~$z_0$. For $\varepsilon > 0$ small enough, the function
$$
\varphi'(z) = \max\big(\varphi(z),\varphi(z_0), r-\sqrt{\varepsilon} + 
\varepsilon\psi(z)\big)
$$
equals $\varepsilon\psi(z) +\hbox{Cte}$ on $U$ and coincides with
$\varphi$ near~$S(r)$. $\mu_r$ the measure may therefore both
be defined by $\varphi'$, giving
$$
\eqalign{
\mu_r(V)&= \int_{-\infty}rdt\int_{B(r)\cap\{\varphi'<t\}}dd^cV\wedge

&\geq\varepsilon^n\int_{U}V\,(dd^c\psi)^n.\cr}
$$
In particular $\Vert\mu_r\Vert =\mu_r(1) > 0$. replace now
$V$ by $V^p$ and do tend to $p$~$+\infty$. It comes~:
$$
V(z_0)\leq \lim_{p\to+\infty}\bigg[\int_U V^p\,(dd^c\psi)^n\bigg]^{1/p}\leq
\lim_{p\to+\infty}\Big[\varepsilon^{-n}\mu_r(V^p)\Big]^{1/p}
=\Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}.
$$
therefore we obtain
$$
\sup_{B(r)}V = \sup_{B(r)\cap X_\reg}V \leq
\Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}.
$$
In the other direction, inequality
$$
\Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}\leq \sup_{S(r)}V
$$
is obvious. If we prove the continuity of the function left
$r\mapsto \Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}$ we will have
$$
\Vert V\Vert_{L^\infty(\mu_r)}\leq \lim_{t<r,\,t\to r}~L <nr)

\section{6}{Propriétés convexity of psh functions.}

A well-known result of P~.Lelong (cf.\ [Le1]) argues that the greater the
average and generally the average $L^p$ a psh function on
Euclidean sphere of radius $r$ in $\bC^n$ are convex functions
$\log r$. We intend to extend these properties to a situation
much more general.

 $X$ be a Stein space of pure dimension~$n$, $\varphi:X\to[-\infty,R[$

is increasing positively in $r$, hence the

\medskip

The classic case mentioned at the beginning is the ball of radius in $e^R$
$\bC^n$ with\hbox{$\varphi(z) = \log|z|$}, $A = -\infty$. More generally,
was a result of convexity to the average standard defined in $L^p$
$$
M_V^p(r) = \Big[\mu_r(V_+^p)\Big]^{1/p},\qquad p\in[1,+\infty[\,.

{\it Demonstration}. Accrued we reduce to the case is $V$
psh class${}> 0$~$\cC^\infty$. Since $\varepsilon>0$,
consider the function
$$
h_\varepsilon(r) = \int_{r-\varepsilon}^r \mu_t(V^p)\,dt
=\int_{B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)}V^p\,\alpha^{n-1}
d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi\,dt,\qquad r\in{}]A+\varepsilon,R[
$$
(The last equality follows from Proposition 3.9~ (a)). As
$\mu_r(V^p) = \lim_{\varepsilon\to 0} h_\varepsilon(r)$, it suffices to prove
 $h_\varepsilon^{1/p}$ that is convex for all~$\varepsilon > 0$.
We should therefore verify inequality
$$
h_\varepsilon h''_\varepsilon-\Big(1-{1\over p}\Big)h_\varepsilon^{\prime 2}\geq 0
$$
where the second derivative $h''_\varepsilon$ is, say, calculated left.
According to the proposal~ 3.9 (b) and the assumption (6.1) it comes
$$
\eqalign{
h'_\varepsilon(r) &= \mu_r(V^p) - \mu_{r-\varepsilon}(V^p)\cr

&=\int_{B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)}p\,V^{p-1}\,dV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}
\wedge d^c\varphi.\cr}
$$
The formula (6.2) also implies
$$
h''_\varepsilon(r) = \int_{B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)}dd^c(V^p)\wedge\alpha^{n-1}.
$$
Thanks to the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality we obtain
$$
h'_\varepsilon(r)^2\leq
\int_{B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)}V^p\,\alpha^{n-1}\wedge d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi~
\cdot\int_{B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)}p^2V^{p-2}\,dV\wedge d^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1},

auxiliary function

set to open
$$
U_\varepsilon = \big\{y\in Y\,;\; A(y) + \varepsilon < r < R(y)\big\}.
$$
To conclude, it suffices to show that $h^{1/p}$ is weakly psh
on~$U_\varepsilon$. If $p > 1$, so this is to show that
$$
h\,dd^ch - \Big(1-{1\over p}\Big)dh\wedge d^ch\geq 0.
$$
Let $u$, $v$, $w$ real forms $\cC^\infty$ class on $Y$
compact support in~$U_\varepsilon$, respective bidegrés $(m, m)$,
$(m,m-1)\oplus (m-1,m)$ and $(m-1,m-1)$. According to Fubini,
we first applied assuming class $\varphi$ $\cC^\infty$,
he comes
$$
\int_ Y hu = \int_X V^p\,\chi(\varphi)\,\alpha^{n-1}\wedge d\varphi
\wedge d^c\varphi\wedge \pi^* u~;
$$
If $\varphi$ only continues is deduced by limit
decreasing (~2.6 theorem). Now we observe that the integrand
has support in
$$
\pi^{-1}(\Supp u)\cap \big(B(r)\ssm B(r-\varepsilon)\big)\compact X
$$
(Hypothesis~ 6.7 (d)) and the current is $\chi(\varphi)\,\alpha^{n-1}\wedge 
d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi$ $d$ -closed (hypothesis~ 6.7 (e)). Thanks to
an integration by parts on $Y$ and another on opposite $X$
therefore obtained successively

Suppose the $(m-1,m-1)$ Platform $w$ be${}\geq 0$. Equality (6.10)

$p > 1$ or $\gamma$ a real $1$ Platform $\cC^\infty$ on and $Y$
$\gamma^c = i(\gamma^{0,1}-\gamma^{1,0})$. Equality (6.9) combined

$$
given that $dd^cV^p\geq p(p-1)\,dV\wedge d^cV$. As is true
for any form $w\geq 0$, we deduce the direction of the currents inequality
$$
dh\wedge\gamma^c + \gamma\wedge d^ch\leq h\,\gamma\wedge\gamma^c+{p\over p-1}\,
dd^ch.
$$
Observe that $h$ is everywhere on${}> 0$ $U_\varepsilon$ from 4.1~;
if we now tend to $\gamma$ $dh/h$ he comes
the expected inequality
$$
{1\over h}\,dh\wedge d^ch\leq {p\over p-1}dd^ch.
$$
To see that $h$ is locally bounded on~$Y$, just look at the

is locally constant on $X_\reg$.\hfil\square

shows that the function
$$

psh is low. If more $V$ is continuous, this function is
separately $x$ continuous and convex $\Re z$, so continuous
$(x_0,\Re z_1)$. With the corollary 1.12, $M^p_V(x_0,\Re z)$ is psh.
If any is $V$ be obtained by writing $V$ as limit

We end this section by reviewing in the light of results
preceding the convexity inequality P. Lelong, a measure of how
specific changes of growing a psh function on a space
bundle along different fibers. This inequality was used
H. Skoda [Sk2] to build a first-instance against the
problem posed by\ J.-P. Serre in 1953, whether a basic bundle
and fiber Stein himself Stein~; see also [De1], [De2]
for other examples and-against [De3] for a simple construction and
fast.

 $\Omega$ be an irreducible Stein space dimension~$m$ which
will act as a base of fiber and $X$ space Stein
~$n$ sheer size, which will be the fiber. It is assumed that there are
 $\psi:\Omega\to [-\infty,R[\,$ functions $\varphi:X\to[-\infty,+\infty[$
continuous psh exhaustive as
$$
(dd^c\psi)^m = 0\quad\hbox{sur}\quad \{\psi> A\},\qquad
(dd^c\varphi)^n = 0\quad\hbox{sur $\{\varphi > 0\}$}.
$$
For example if $X$ is an affine algebraic variety of dimension~$n$,
there is a finite morphism $F :X\to\bC^n$ (normalization theorem
Noether), and just take $\varphi(z) = \log\Vert F(z)\Vert$
 $\Vert~~\Vert$ which is a standard $\bC^n$~; the same reasoning applies
locally on $\Omega$ for the existence of~$\psi$.

 $V$ be a psh function on $\Omega\times X$ and real $a,b,c,r$
such as $A<a<b<c<R$ and~$r>0$. The convexity property corollary~6.12
show that
$$
M_V^\infty(b,r)\leq M_V^\infty(a,\sigma r) + \Big(1-{1\over\sigma}\Big)\;
\Big[M_V^\infty(c, 0) - M_V^\infty(a,\sigma r)\Big]
$$
with $\sigma = {c-a\over c-b}$. It follows from Theorem 7.5 demonstrated
following paragraph which was $M_V^\infty(a,r)\to+\infty$ when $r\to+\infty$,
when $V$ is not constant over at least one fiber $\{z\}\times X$,
$z\in B(a)$. Then there exists a constant dependent $r_0$
$a,b,c,V$ as
$$
M_V^\infty(b,r) < M_V^\infty(a,\sigma r)\quad\hbox{pour $r > r_0$, où}~~
\sigma={c-a\over c-b}.
\leqno(6.13)
$$
If $\omega$ is an open relatively compact in~$\Omega$, we set
now
$$
M_V^\infty(\omega\,;\,r)=\sup_{\omega\times B(r)}V.
$$
With an elementary reasoning compactness and connectedness (cf.\
[Le2], Theorem 6.5.4) then it follows from (6.13) the following result~:
\medskip

{\statement Corollary 6.14{\rm (inequality P. Lelong)}.\pointir}{\it
 $\Omega$ be an irreducible complex space $\omega_1,\,\omega_2$
two relatively compact open in $\Omega$ and $V$ function
psh on $\Omega\times X$, assumed not constant over at least one fiber
$\{z\}\times X$. So there is a constant that depends $\sigma > 1$
as $\omega_1,\omega_2,\Omega$, and constantly dependent $r_0$
 $V$ off, such that for all we have $r > r_0$
$$
M_V^\infty(\omega_2\,;\,r) < M_V^\infty(\omega_1\,;\,\sigma r).
$$\vskip-\parskip}

In practical applications there is the problem of calculating
Constant explicit~$\sigma$. The inequality (6.13) brings
complete theoretical answer to this problem. Yes
$\omega_1,\omega_2\compact\Omega$ are open to $\bC$ it
seeks a harmonic function on $\psi$ $\Omega\ssm\overline\omega_1$
which tends to $0$ on $\partial\omega_1$ and to $1$ on $\partial\Omega$
(Resp.\ to $+\infty$ if $\partial\Omega$ capacity is~$0$)~;
is extended by $\psi$ $0$ on $\omega_1$ and pose $b = \sup_{\omega_2}\psi$.
Any constant $\sigma > {1\over 1-b}$ (resp.\ $\sigma>1$) then meets
the question. If the base is $\Omega$ $m > 1$ dimension returns
to solve a similar Dirichlet problem for the Monge-Amp\`ere equation
$(dd^c\psi)^m=0$ on~$\Omega\ssm\overline\omega_1$.
It~est easy to see that the constant is obtained $\sigma$
best. A\-ele mentary calculation shows that the function
$$
\chi(t,r) = \exp\Big({r\over 1-t}+{1\over(1-t)^2}\Big)
$$
growing is convex on $[0,1[{}\times[0,+\infty[\,$. The psh function
$V =\chi(\psi_+,\varphi_+)$ then contradicts (6.13) for all
$\sigma\leq{1\over 1-b}$.

\section{7}{Croissance to infinity psh functions.}

 $X$ be a Stein space of irreducible $n$ $\varphi : X\to
[-\infty,+\infty[$ dimension and a comprehensive continuous psh function (so we here
$R = +\infty$). We notice
$$
\tau(r)=\Vert\mu_r\Vert=\int_{B(r)}\alpha^n
$$
where $\alpha = dd^c\varphi$, the volume of the pseudoboule $B(r) = \{\varphi<r\}$.
Jensen formula 3.4 is then used to connect growth counant
$dd^cV$ growth of $V$. Specifically~:
\medskip

{\statement Proposition 7.1.\pointir}{\it Let $V$ a psh function

we are
$$
(l-\varepsilon)r\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}\leq\mu_r(V_+)+C\,\tau(r).

{\it Demonstration}. Let $V_\nu =\max(V,-\nu)$, $\nu\in\bN$. Measures
$dd^cV_\nu\wedge\alpha^{n-1}$ weakly converge $dd^cV\wedge
\alpha^{n-1}$ $\nu\to+\infty$ when, following
$$
\liminf_{\nu\to+\infty}\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV_\nu\wedge\alpha^{n-1}
\geq \int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}.

There is therefore $\nu\in\bN$ (depending $V,\varepsilon,r_0$) as
$$
\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV_\nu\wedge\alpha^{n-1}\geq
(1-\varepsilon)\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}.
$$
The formula applied to $V_\nu$ 3.4 gives the other
$$
(r-r_0)\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV_\nu\wedge\alpha^{n-1}\geq
\mu_r(V_\nu)-\int_{B(r)}V_\nu\,\alpha^n
\leq\mu_r(V_+)+\nu\,\tau(r).
$$
These two combined inequalities entail the proposal with 7.1
$$
C=\nu+{(1-\varepsilon)r_0\over\tau(r_0)}\int_{B(r_0)}dd^cV\wedge\alpha^{n-1}.

{\statement Corollary 7.3.\pointir}{\it $(7.2)$ Under the hypothesis, for
any function $V$ psh~$:$
$$

{\it Demonstration}. 5.1 theorem gives
$$

therefore the assumption~ 7.5 (b) involves~ 7.5 (a). Assuming~ 7.5 (a),
Corollary 7.3 and Lemma 7.4 show that $dd^cV = 0$, i.e.\ $V$

pluriharmonique. According to the maximum principle is constant $-\tilde V$

$V$ therefore constant~est.\hfil\square
\medskip

In the usual situation of the Hermitian space and $\bC^n$
 $\varphi(z) = \log|z|$ function of exhaustion, Theorem 7.5 gives
(With a slightly simpler proof) a result due to N.~Sibony
and P.-M. Wong. Define the logarithmic function of order $\rho(V)$
psh $V$ in $\bC^n$ (resp.\ an entire function $F$) by
$$
1 + \rho(V) = \limsup_{r\to +\infty} {\log\sup_{|z|<r} V(z)\over\log\log r},
\qquad\hbox{(resp.}~~  \rho(F) = \rho(\log|F|).
$$
In other words $V$ and $F$ are logarithmic order to${}\leq\rho$ if
all $\varepsilon > 0$ was
$$
V_+(z)\leq\varphi(z)^{1+\rho+\varepsilon},\qquad\hbox{(resp.}~~
|F(z)|\leq\exp\big(\varphi(z)^{1+\rho+\varepsilon})\big)
$$
when $|z|$ is large enough. In particular, any polynomial is of order
logarithmic zero and entire function of finite logarithmic order
is no order in the usual sense.
\medskip

{\statement Corollary 7.6{\rm ([SW])}.\pointir}{\it Either a $F$
non-constant entire function of logarithmic order $\rho < 1$ and $X$
an irreducible component of the hypersurface $F^{-1}(0)$. then all
psh function on $V$ $X$ logarithmic order${}< 1-\rho$ is constant.
In particular, psh functions holomorphic and bounded on $X$ are
constant.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. Theorem 7.5 leads us to estimate the volume
 $X$ $\varphi$ of respect, which is a common problem. The flow
Integration on $X$ is indeed increased by ${1\over2\pi}dd^c\log|F|$ in
Under Lelong-Poincaré equation (see\ [Le1])~; was therefore
$$
\tau(r) = \int_{X\cap\{\varphi<r\}}(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\leq
\int_{\{\varphi<r\}}{1\over2\pi}dd^c\log|F|\wedge\alpha^{n-1}
$$
After any translation we can assume $F(0)\neq 0$. The
~4.5 proposal and the formula applied to~3.4 $V = {1\over 2\pi} \log|F|$
in $\bC^n$ then give
$$
\int_{-\infty}^r\tau(t)\,dt\leq \mu_r\Big({1\over 2\pi}\log|F|\Big)
-(2\pi)^n{1\over 2\pi}\log|F(0)|\leq C\,r^{1+\rho+\varepsilon}.
$$
for $r\ge r_0(\varepsilon)$. $\tau$ as the function is increasing, it
deduces
$$
\tau(r)\leq{1\over r}\int_r^{2r}\tau(t)\,dt\leq C'\,r^{\rho+\varepsilon}.
$$
The conclusion then follows from 7.5~ (b).\hfil\square

$A_\varphi(X) = K_\varphi(X)\cap\cO(X)$ appropriate, but we do not know if
this property is general. On the other hand, if $X$ is normal,
$A_\varphi(X)$ is fully closed subalgebra $K_\varphi(X)$
(Immediate verification).

With these definitions, we have the following fundamental inequality, which stems
7.3 of the proposal applied to $V = \log|F|$.

$$

Using conventional reasoning back to Poincaré and developed
Siegel [Si1], [Si2], we now derive a theorem
algebraicity of very general.

Corollary 8.4 therefore gives the inequality
$$
\ord\nolimits_aP(F_1,\ldots,F_N)\leq C(a)
\sum_{1\leq j\leq N}k_j\,\delta_\varphi(F_j).\leqno(8.6)

Suppose $F_1,\ldots,F_N$ algebraically independent. Then the dimension
of the vector space of polynomials equals $P(F_1,\ldots,F_N)$
$(k_1+1)\ldots (k_N+1)$. For whole $s\geq 0$ and any point
$a\in X_\reg$ given the homogeneous linear system

admits a nonzero solution as soon as this size exceeds the number
equations, equal to ${n+s\choose n}\leq {1\over n!}(n+s)^n$. The
 $P(F_1,\ldots,F_N)$ function then cancels at least to order $s+1$
developed~$a$, and the choice of $s$ as
$s\leq C(a)\sum k_j\,\delta_\varphi(F_j)<s+1$~ contradicts the inequality (8.6)
unless
$$
(k_1+1)\ldots (k_N+1)\leq{n+s\choose s}\leq{1\over n!}\bigg[

$$
Take $k_1=\cdots=k_N=k$ and then do tend to $k$~$+\infty$.
The above inequality shows that $(k+1)^N\leq\hbox{Cte}(k+1)^n$,
due $N\leq n$ and property (a) is demonstrated.

Suppose $\deg\tr_\bC K_\varphi(X) = n$ and are $F_1,\ldots,F_n$
$n$ algebraically independent functions of $A_\varphi(X)$. To demonstrate
(B) simply to increase the degree of the algebraic extension
$[K_\varphi(X) :\bC(F_1,\ldots,F_n)$. If $F_{n+1}\in A_\varphi(X)$ is
 $d$ degree algebraic over $\bC(F_1,\ldots,F_n)$, the monomials
$F_1^{\ell_1}\ldots F_n^{\ell_n}F_{n+1}^{\ell_{n+1}}$ are linearly
Independent once $\ell_{n+1} < d$. The above reasoning applied
with $k_{n-1}= d-1$ therefore gives
$$
(k_1+1)\ldots (k_n+1)d\leq{1\over n!}\bigg[n+C(a)
\sum_{1\leq j\leq n}k_j\,\delta_\varphi(F_j)+(d-1)\,\delta_\varphi(F_{n+1})\bigg]^n.
$$
Take $k_1\sim q_1k,\ldots,k_n\sim q_nk$ where are $q_1,\ldots,q_n$
real${}>0$ and $k\to+\infty$. He comes to the limit
$$
q_1\ldots q_nd\leq{1\over n!}\bigg[C(a)
\sum_{1\leq j\leq n}q_j\,\delta_\varphi(F_j)+(d-1)\,\delta_\varphi(F_{n+1})\bigg]^n,
$$
and choice $q_j = 1/\delta_\varphi(F_j)$ gives explicit increase
expected degree~:
$$
d\leq {(n C(a))^n\over n!}~\delta_\varphi(F_1)\cdots\delta_\varphi(F_n).

Note that Theorem 8.5~ (b) is silent regarding algebra
$A_\varphi(X)$ itself~; as we shall see in\S10 it
may well be that algebra $A_\varphi(X)${\it not~soit~pas} of finite type.

As an application, consider the special case where is $X$
an analytic subset (closed) of pure $n$ dimension~$\bC^N$,
provided with the function of conventional exhaustion\hbox{$\varphi(z) = \log(1+|z|^2)$}.
The $\alpha = dd^c\varphi$ associated metric identifies with the metric
Fubini-Study of the projective space~$\bP^N$, while the metric
$\beta = dd^ce^\varphi$ coincides with the Hermitian metric flat
~ of$\bC^N$. 3.10 The proposal involves relationships
$$
\eqalign{
&\int_{X\cap\{|z|<r\}}\beta^n = (1+r^2)^n
\int_{X\cap\{\varphi<\log(1+r^2\}}\alpha^n,\cr
&\Vol_\alpha(X) = \int_X\alpha^n = 
\lim_{r\to+\infty}\int_{X\cap\{|z|<r\}}\beta^n.\cr}
$$
Theorem 8.5 then gives an elementary way the classical result
following due to W.~Stoll [St1].
\medskip

{\statement Corollary 8.7.\pointir}{\it Either $X$ a subset

So $X$ is algebraic.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. Each irreducible component of $X$ is volume
at least equal to the volume of a -plan $n$ (see\ [Le1]), so these components
is finite, and presumably irreducible $X$.

Now we observe that the polynomials induce $P\in\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]$
 $X$ on the $\varphi$ -polynomiales functions under the definitions
8.1 and 8.2. Indeed, the obvious result estimate $\log_+|P|\leq{1\over 2}

$$
\delta_\varphi(P) = \limsup_{r\to+\infty}~{1\over r}\,\mu_r(\log_+|P|)

$$
Consider then the restriction morphism
$$
\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]\to A_\varphi(X)
$$
and the ideal $I$, core of this morphism. Since $A_\varphi(X)$ is intact,
$I$ is an ideal first~; more irreducible algebraic variety of
zeros $V(I)$ $X$ contains by definition. Theorem 8.5~ (a) shows
 $\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]/I\subset A_\varphi(X)$ that has a degree of transcendence
at most equal to $n = \dim X$~; therefore $\dim V(I)\leq n$
and~$X = V(I)$.\hfil\square

\subset A_\varphi(X)$. Either $M = \mathop{\rm Spm} B$ algebraic variety
refines associated $B$ (see [Sun], Volume 2, chap.~I for formalism

then respectively induce an algebraic morphism and $M\to V(I)$
an analytical morphism $V(I) = X\to M$, inverses of one another.
Following the morphism $V(I)\to M$ would algebraic, and it would
$\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]/I = B$ contrary to the hypothesis.\hfil\square
\medskip

We will now see how these results are transposed to the case
sections polynomial of a linear bundle. Either a $L$

$$
Formula applied to the Jensen 3.4 $V = {1\over 2}
\log(\varepsilon+|\sigma|^2)$ function then gives, given that
$V\geq \log \varepsilon^{1/2}$~:
$$
\eqalign{

where $[ic(L)\wedge\alpha^{n-1}]_+$ denotes the positive part of the measurement
$c(L)\wedge\alpha^{n-1}$. Divide this inequality by $r$ and make tender
$r$ to~$+\infty$. As $V\leq\log_+|\sigma|+{1\over 2}\log(1+\varepsilon)$,
he comes
$$
\int_X{\varepsilon\langle D\sigma,D\sigma\rangle\over

When $\varepsilon$ approaches~$0$ the term
${\varepsilon\langle D\sigma,D\sigma\rangle\over

\section{9}{Énoncé criterion of algebraicity.}

The purpose of the following paragraphs is to show that the varieties
Affine Algebraic are characterized among spaces by Stein
simple geometric conditions, namely the finite volume
Monge-Amp\`ere and a suitable lower bound of Ricci curvature.

Recall that affine algebraic variety is by definition a
closed algebraic subvariety of a $\bC^N$ space. In the case of a space
$X$ to isolated singularities, we obtain the characterization
necessary and sufficient below.
\medskip

{\statement Theorem 9.1.\pointir}{\it Either $X$ an analytic space
complex of dimension $n$, having at most a finite number of points
Singular. So $X$ is analytically isomorphic to a variety
affine algebraic $X$ iff $X$ has a function

\item{\rm (b)} The Ricci curvature of the metric $\beta= dd^c(e^\varphi)$

$$
\Ricci(\beta)\geq-{1\over 2}dd^c\psi,
$$
and with $\psi\in L^1_{\loc}(X,\bR)\cap\cC^0(X_\reg,\bR)$
$\psi\leq A\varphi + B$ where $A$, $B$ are constants${}\geq 0~;$
\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (c)} $\varphi$ has a finite number of critical points on
$X_\reg$.\vskip2pt}
If these conditions are satisfied, the ring $R_\varphi(X)=K_\varphi(X)\cap
\cO(X)$ $($ cf.~$8.2)$ definition is an algebra of finite type and $\bC$
of transcendence degree~$n$. The algebraic structure is $X_\alg$
then defined as the unique algebraic structure on which $X$
the ring of regular functions is $R_\varphi(X)$.\medskip}

The extension of this characterization the case of analytic spaces
with whatever singularities presents challenges that will
\S14 examined.

The role of different assumptions of Theorem 9.1 is divided grosso
modo as follows. The existence of a function of exhaustion $\varphi$
psh strictly ensures that $X$ is a Stein manifold, according to the
solution of the problem given by Levi H. Grauert [Group].

Under the~ hypothesis (a), Theorem 8.5 implies that the other
the body of $\varphi$ -rationnelles functions of transcendence degree
finished. The~ hypothesis (b), in turn, ensures the existence of a sufficient number of functions $\varphi$ -polynomiales thanks to $L^2$ estimates
Hörmander-Nakano-Bombieri-Skoda for $\overline\partial$ operator.
Note here that we can replace condition (b) by a
provided on the curvature of the metric $dd^c\varphi$ (cf.\
note 10.2). by obtained against an equivalent condition
 $\beta$ replaced by a metric as any $\gamma$
$$
\exp(-A_1\varphi-B_1)\leq\gamma\leq\exp(A_2\varphi+B_2,
$$
eg metric or $\gamma = dd^c\log(1 + e^\varphi)$
$\gamma = dd^c(\varphi^2)$.

Finally~ hypothesis (c) results from Morse theory that has $X$
same type of homo-topia\ a finite cell complex, and therefore the
cohomology $X$ is finitely. We do not know in fact if
~ the assumption (c) is really essential, therefore supposed
$X$ irreducible. Without~ hypothesis (c), we can already show that $X$
is meeting an increasing sequence of algebraic varieties X
Almost affine (${}={}$ Zariski open affine varieties)
cf.~proposition 13.1. This result follows the following improvements
Theorem 9.1.
\medskip

{\statement Theorem $\bf 9.1^{\prime}$.\pointir}{\it
The theorem remains true if $9.1$
assumptions{\rm (a, b, c) are weakened} as follows~$:$
\vskip2pt
$\hbox{\rm(a')} =\hbox{\rm(a)}\;:$~ $\Vol(X) = \int_X (dd^c\varphi)^n <

$$
\item{\rm (that) the} even degree cohomology spaces $H^{2q}(X_\reg;\bR)$
are finite dimensional.\medskip}}

Assumptions (a '), (b') further imply that $X = \bigcup_{k\in\bN}X_k$
 $X_k$ with quasi-affine $X_k\subset X_{k+1}$, and assuming (that) implies that
Following $X_k$ is necessarily stationary~; therefore, is $X$
algebraic. Observe that the hypothesis (that) is always checked if
$n = 1$~; when $n = 2$ or $n = 3$, it is equivalent to assuming only
$\dim H^2(X;\bR) < +\infty$ because $H^q(X;\bR)$ groups are always zero
for $q>n$ when $X$ of Stein.

The likelihood of Theorems 9.1, 9.1 'was suggested to us in part
by the work of W. and D.~Stoll~Burns on varieties
parabolic. Let us recall the fundamental result of W.~Stoll
(1980), which characterizes the strictly parabolic varieties radius
any.
\medskip

{\statement Theorem 9.2{\rm (cf.\ [St2] and [Bu])}.\pointir}{\it Either
$M$ a connected complex analytic variety of dimension~$n$.

Then there exists a biholomorphic $F : B(R)\to M$ implementation of the ball
radius of $R$ in $M$ as $F^*\tau(z) = |z|^2$.}
\medskip

If you lift the strict assumption of plurisousharmonicité $\tau$ it
easily seen that any affine algebraic variety $M$ still checks
the condition of Theorem 9.2 (with $R = +\infty$)~: just
 $\tau(z) = \log|\pi(z)|^2$ choose where $\pi : M \to \bC^n$ is a morphism

characterization of such varieties in function of exhaustion
with special properties. Note in particular the
following open problems.

\medskip

D.~Burns has shown that there are not affine algebraic varieties
not satisfying the condition 9.4~ Such is the case of $M = (\bC^*)^n$,
$n\ge 2$. However, the condition 9.4 is checked by a variety
refines generic, i.e.\ a variety diving in
$\bC^N$ whose projective completion is smooth and transverse to
the hyperplane at infinity.

Shortly after proving Theorem 9.1, we learned of another
N.~Mok hand that had previously obtained a geometric condition
sufficient (not necessary in general) for a variety is
affine algebraic.

We will demonstrate here that conditions (a), (b), (c)
Theorem 9.1 are checked for any algebraic subvariety
irreducible $X\subset\bC^N$ size~$n$.

Is chosen in this case $\varphi(z) = \log(1+|z|^2)$, so that the
 $\alpha = dd^c\varphi$ metric coincides with the metric Fubini-Study
of the projective space~$\bP^N$. As $\overline X$ adhesion $X$
 $\bP^N$ in a compact algebraic submanifold is obtained
$$
\int_X(dd^c\varphi)^n = \int_{\overline X} \alpha^n < +\infty,
$$
therefore the condition (a) is satisfied.

By Theorem of Bertini-Sard, the set of critical values
of $\varphi$ on $X_\reg$ is finished. Following the critical set of

{\it} Demonstration of (a). Either $x \subset U_K$. Suppose the coordinates
 $\bC^N$ of rows so that $(z_1,\ldots,z_n)$ or a system of
local coordinate $X$ developed~$x$. Ricci curvature of $X$ is in
Kähler the case opposite to the curvature of the canonical bundle
$\Lambda^nT^*X$. It was therefore in the vicinity of the relationship $x$
$$
\Ricci(\beta_{|X}) = dd^c\log g^2,
$$
 $g$ which is the norm with respect to the $\beta$ $(n,0)$ Platform holomorph
$dz_1\wedge\ldots \wedge dz_n$~; $g$ is given by
$$
i\,dz_1\wedge d\overline z_1\wedge\ldots \wedge i\,dz_n\wedge d\overline 
z_{n\,|X} = g^2\;{1\over n!}\;\beta^n_{|X}.
$$
Let $L_0=\{n+1,\ldots,N\}$, $L$ any multi-index of length
$s = N-n$ and ${\complement}\kern 1pt L$ complementary~son in
$\{1,\ldots,N\}$.
If we set
$$
dP_K=dP_{k_1}\wedge \ldots \wedge dP_{k_s},
$$
it comes by definition $J_{K,L}$~:
$$
\eqalign{
dP_K\wedge dz_{\,\complement L}&= \pm J_{K,L}\,dz_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dz_N
,\cr
i^{n^2+s^2}dP_K\wedge d\overline P_K\wedge dz_{\,\complement L}\wedge 
d\overline z_{\,\complement L}&= |J_{K,L}|^2
i\,dz_1\wedge d\overline z_1\wedge\ldots \wedge i\,dz_N\wedge d\overline z_N\cr
i^{s^2}dP_K\wedge d\overline P_K\wedge {1\over n!}\,\beta^n
&= 2^n \sum_{|L|=s}|J_{K,L}|^2\;
i\,dz_1\wedge d\overline z_1\wedge\ldots \wedge i\,dz_N\wedge d\overline z_N\cr
&\kern-92pt{}= 2^n |J_{K,L_0}|^{-2}\sum_{|L|=s}|J_{K,L}|^2\;
i^{s^2}\,dP_K\wedge d\overline P_K\wedge
i\,dz_1\wedge d\overline z_1\wedge\ldots \wedge i\,dz_n\wedge d\overline z_n.
\cr}
$$
In ``Simplifying'' by $dP_K\wedge d\overline P_K$,
therefore we find
$$
g^2=2^{-n}\big|J_{K,L_0}\big|^2\Bigg(\sum_{|L|=s}|J_{K,L}|^2\Bigg)^{-1}
$$
and as $J_{K,L_0}$ is an invertible holomorphic function in~$x$,
~ the formula (a) ensues.\medskip

{\it} Demonstration of (b). The result (a) shows that the function
$$
\log\Bigg(\sum_{|L|=s}|J_{K,L}|^2\Bigg/\sum_{|L|=s}|J_{K_0,L}|^2\Bigg)
$$
pluriharmonique is on the open $U_K \cap U_{K_0}$. It is more
locally increased, so psh on $U_{K_0}$. As a result, the
function
$$
\log\Bigg(\sum_{K,L}|J_{K,L}|^2\Bigg/\sum_{L}|J_{K_0,L}|^2\Bigg)
$$
psh is on~$U_{K_0}$, and this opened so we~:
$$
dd^c\psi \geq
dd^c\log\sum_{L}|J_{K_0,L}|^2 = -2\;\Ricci(\beta_{|X}).
\eqno\square
$$

{\statement Note 10.2.\pointir} When $X$ is a submanifold
closed analytics $\bC^N$ and $\varphi(z) = \log(1+|z|^2)$, the
provided~ 9.1 (a) of finite volume is in itself a
sufficient condition for algebraicity of $X$ (theorem W.~Stoll,
cf.~corollaire~8.6). We'll see however by example
we can generally dispense with the condition
9.1~ curvature (b), even though 9.1 '$\,$ (c') is satisfied.
\medskip

 $X = \bC\ssm E$ choose where $E = \{z_j\,;\; j\in\bN\}$ is a set
closed countable infinity, and put
$$
\varphi(z) = \log(1+|z|^2) - \sum_{j=0}^{+\infty}
\varepsilon_j\log{|z-z_j|\over 1+|z_j|}
$$
 $\sum_{j=0}^{+\infty}\varepsilon_j=1$ which is a series${}>0$ terms and
converged fast enough to be in $\varphi$
$\cC^\infty(\bC\ssm E)$. As
$$
\log{|z-z_j|\over 1+|z_j|}\leq\log(1+|z|),
$$
he comes
$$
\varphi(z)\geq\log{1+|z|^2\over 1+|z|}~;
$$
more $\lim_{z\to z_j}\varphi(z) = +\infty$ for all $z_j\in E$.
 $\varphi$ the function is comprehensive on~$X$. Otherwise,
$dd^c\varphi = dd^c\log(1+|z|^2)$, so
$\int_X dd^c\varphi = 4\pi < +\infty$. However
$X$ is not algebraic.\hfil\square
\medskip

This example shows incidentally that we can not replace
~ condition 9.1 (b) by a condition on the curvature
metric $dd^c\varphi$.

It is easy to see the other as algebra and $A_\varphi(X)$
$R_\varphi(X) = K_\varphi(X)\cap \cO(X)$ coincide with algebra
$\cA_E$ of -rationnelles $\varphi$ $\bC[z]$ fractions whose poles
Appar-\ like to~$E$. For every element clearly admits $f\in\cA_E$
an increase\break\hbox{$\log|f|\leq C_1\varphi + C_2$} so
$\cA_E\subset A_\varphi(X)\subset R_\varphi(X)$~; conversely, any element
of $K_\varphi(X)$ is algebraic over $\bC(z)$ by~8.5 theorem
so
$$
R_\varphi(X)\subset \bC(z)\cap\cO(X)=\cA_E.
$$
Clearly the $\cA_E$ algebra is not finitely.

{\it} Demonstration 11.2. The proposal entails successively 3.10

\eqalign{

(n+1)\int_0^{+\infty}e^{-(n+1)r}\,v(r)\,dr<+\infty,\cr}
$$
demonstrating (a). The property (b) then follows from inequality
Hölder. The same implies inequality
$$
\int_X \big|fg\big|^{{pq\over p+q}}e^{-C\varphi}\,\beta^n\leq
\Bigg[\int_X |f|^p\,e^{-C\varphi}\,\beta^n\Bigg]^{{q\over p+q}}
\Bigg[\int_X |g|^q\,e^{-C\varphi}\,\beta^n\Bigg]^{{p\over p+q}}
$$
for all $p,q > 0$. thus obtained 1'inclusion
$$
L^p_\varphi(X)\cdot L^q_\varphi(X) \subset L^{{pq\over p+q}}_\varphi(X),
\leqno(11.4)
$$
and property (c) follows. Now check the assertion (d). Is
$f$ a meromorphic function on $X$ checking an entire equation
$A^0_\varphi(X)$ shape
$$
f^d + a_1f^{d-1}+ \cdots + a_{d-1}f + a_d = 0,\qquad  a_j\in A^0_\varphi(X).
$$
From this equation, we deduce the increase
$$
|f|\leq 2\,\max_{1\leq j\leq d}|a_j|^{1/j},
$$
if not equal
$$
-1 = a_1f^{-1}+ \cdots + a_df^{-d} 
$$
absolute lead to the absurd inequality
$$
1\le 2^{-1}+\cdots+2^{-d}.
$$
Therefore, as $X$ is smooth, $f$ extends to a function
holomorphic on $X$, and it is clear that $f\in A^0_\varphi(X)$.\hfil\square
\medskip

{\it} Demonstration of 11.3.

(A) was $\beta^n\geq e^{n\varphi}(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d\varphi\wedge 
d^c\varphi$ therefore (Proposition 3.8) the integral
$$
\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}e^{(n-C)r}\,\mu_r(|f|^p)\,dr
=\int_X|f|^pe^{(n-C)\varphi}\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}\wedge d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi
\leq\int_X|f|^pe^{-C\varphi}\,\beta^n
$$
is over. As $r\mapsto\mu_r(|f|^p)$ application is growing,
we can deduce
$$
\mu_r(|f|^p)\leq \exp\big((C-n)(r+1)\big)
\int_{r}^{r+1}e^{(n-C)t}\,\mu_t(|f|^p)\,dt\leq C_1e^{(C-n)r}
$$
with constant $C_1\geq 0$. According inequality Convexity
Jensen and $\Vert\mu_r\Vert\leq\Vol(X)$ inequality, it comes
$$
\eqalign{
&{\mu_r\big(\log(1+|f|^p)\big)\over\Vert\mu\Vert_r}\leq
\log\Bigg[{\mu_r\big(1+|f|^p\big)\over\Vert\mu\Vert_r}\Bigg]\leq
(C-n)r+C_2\,,\cr
&\delta_\varphi(f)= \limsup_{r\to+\infty}~{1\over r}\;
\mu_r(\log_+|f|) \leq {C-n\over p}\,\Vol(X).\cr}
$$
(B) To increase $|dF|_\beta$, it is observed
$$
dd^c(|F|^p)\wedge\beta^{n-1} ={p^2\over 2n}\,|F|^{p-2}|dF|^2_\beta\;\beta^n.
$$
With the Stokes theorem, that equality leads to all $r > 0$~:
$$
\int_{B(r)}|F|^{p-2}|dF|^2_\beta\Big(1-{\varphi\over r}\Big)^2e^{(1-C)\varphi}
\;\beta^n\leq
{2n\over p^2}\int_{B(r)}|F|^p\,dd^c\Big[\Big(1-{\varphi\over r}\Big)^2
e^{(1-C)\varphi}\Big]\wedge\beta^{n-1}.
$$
Easy calculation gives the other on the $B(r)=\{\varphi<r\}$
uniform increase in $r$~:
$$
dd^c\Big[\Big(1-{\varphi\over r}\Big)^2e^{(1-C)\varphi}\Big]\leq
C_3\Big(1+{1\over r}\Big)^2e^{-C\varphi}\beta,\qquad r>0.
$$
After passing the limit when $r\to+\infty$, we obtain
$$
\int_{X}|F|^{p-2}|dF|^2_\beta\;e^{(1-C)\varphi}
\;\beta^n\leq C_3\int_X|F|^pe^{-C\varphi}\beta^n.
$$
Property 11.3 (b) now results from Hölder inequality
applied to the measurement $|F|^pe^{-C\varphi}\beta^n$, the pair of functions
$\smash{(|F|^{-p}|dF|^p_\beta\exp({p\over 2}\varphi)~;~1)}$ and exhibitors
Conju\-fords~$({2\over p},{2\over 2-p})$.\hfil\square
\medskip

The existence of non-constant holomorphic functions in
$\smash{L^p_\varphi(X)}$ will result conventional estimates

{\it Demonstration}.

(A) is classical, see for example H.~Skoda [Sk3].
\medskip

(B) We apply (a) with $\tau = \rho + \psi + 2\log(1+e^\varphi)$. As
$\varphi\geq  0$ was $\tau\leq \rho+\psi+2\varphi + \log 4$ and
Assuming 9.1 '(b') results in
$$
i\,\partial\overline\partial\tau + \Ricci(\beta) \geq
{e^\varphi\;dd^c\varphi\over 1+e^\varphi} +
{e^\varphi\;d\varphi \wedge d^c\varphi\over (1+e^\varphi)^2} 
\geq\lambda\beta
$$
with $\lambda =  (1+e^\varphi)^{-2}$. The estimate (b) result.
\medskip

(C) is a consequence of (b) through a classical reasoning
due to Bombieri and Skoda~ [Sk1]. $U_1,\ldots,U_m$ are open neighborhoods
disjoint from $x_1,\ldots,x_m$ on which is $e^{-\rho}$
locally integrable. $U_j$ Assume provided with a coordinate system
Local $z^{(j)} = (z^j_1,z^j_2,\ldots,z^j_n)$ centered $x_j$ and pose
$$
\rho_1=\rho+(n+s)\Bigg[\sum_{j=1}^m\chi_j\log|z^{(j)}|^2+C_j\varphi\Bigg]
$$
 $\chi_j$ which is a class function${}\geq 0$ $\cC^\infty$ support
compact in~$U_j$ equal to $1$ near~$x_j$ and a $C_j$
${}\geq 0$ constant large enough for either $\rho_1$ psh on~$X$.
The constant $n+s$ is selected here so that the jet order $s$
 $g$ a function $\cC^\infty$ class, locally integrable for
 $e^{-\rho_1}\,\beta^n$ far, is necessarily to zero
~$x_j$ point. Be now $P_j(z^{(j)})$ a polynomial of degree${}\leq s$
with the jet imposed~$x_j$. we set
$$
h = \sum_{j=1}^m\chi_j\,P_j(z^{(j)}).
$$
The $(0,1)$ Platform
$$
u:=\overline\partial h = \sum_{j=1}^m\overline\partial\chi_j\;P_j(z^{(j)}).
$$
is $\cC^\infty$ class, no near $x_1,\ldots,x_m$ and
by building
$$
\int_X |u|^2e^{-\rho_1-\psi}\,\beta^n <+\infty~;
$$
was used here that $\psi$ either locally bounded. According to (b),
are $g\in\cC^\infty(X)$ as $\overline\partial g = u$ and
$$
\int_X |g|^2e^{-\rho_1-\psi-2\varphi}\,\beta^n <+\infty~.
$$
The $f = h-g$ function then answers the question. If $\rho\equiv 0$, we
can write
$$
|f| = \Big[|f|\exp\Big(-{1\over 2}\psi\Big)\Big]\;\exp\Big({1\over 2}\psi\Big)
$$
and where $|f|\exp(-{1\over 2}\psi)\in L^2_\varphi(X)$
$\exp({1\over 2}\psi)\in L^{2c}_\varphi(X)$. It follows through
(11.4) that $f\in L^b_\varphi(X)$.
\medskip

(D) is proved from (b) exactly as Lemma 4.3.1
~ of [HO2].\hfil\square
\medskip

Now we use the proposal to build many 11.5
holomorphic functions on $X$, and thus obtain a partial dipping
$X$ in~$\bC^N$. $x_0 \in X$ is a fixed point. According~ 11.5 (c)
 $\rho\equiv 0$ applied, there are functions
$f_1,\ldots,f_n\in A^b_\varphi(X)$ such as
$$
df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n(x_0) \neq 0.
$$
In particular, $f_1,\ldots,f_n$ are algebraically independent
in~$A_\varphi(X)$. Theorem 8.5 (b) therefore applies, giving~:

As we shall see, it is easy to deduce results
the existence of a previous $F : X\to M$ morphism in $X$
algebraic variety $M$ dimension~$n$, that is, outside a
algebraic hypersurface $S \subset X$ an isomorphism on $X\ssm S$

an analytic isomorphism $X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$ on an open plain
~ of$M$.\medskip}}

{\it Demonstration}.

(A) Just apply~ 11.5 (c) to psh function
$$
\rho = \psi + \log|df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n|^2.
$$
If $Z$ is the divisor of the zeros of holomorphic $n$ Platform
$df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n$ considered section
$\bigwedge^n T^*X$ was well indeed on the assumption 9.1 '(b')~:
$$
dd^c\rho = dd^c\psi + 2\Ricci(\beta) + 4\pi\,[Z] \geq 0,
$$
 $\rho$ and is continuous in the vicinity of~$x_0$. There is therefore $f_{n+1}\in\cO(X)$
as $f_{n+1}(x_0) = 1$, checking $L^2$~annoncée estimate.
This estimate implies that $f_{n+1}$ vanishes on the support~$Z$,
and by Lemma 11.3~ (b) was $|df_j|\in L^b_\varphi(X)$, where
$$
|f_0|\leq \Big(|f_0|\;|df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n|^{-1}\,e^{-\psi}\Big)\;
|df_1|\cdots|df_n|\;e^\psi\in L ^0_\varphi(X).
$$

(B) is first constructed by induction on the $j$
 $f_1,\ldots,f_{N_j}\in A^0_\varphi(X)$ functions
$N_0 = n + 1 < N_1 < N_2 \ldots$ (this is for $j = 0$).

According to 11.6 the image of the morphism
$$
F_j=(f_1,\ldots,f_{N_j}):X\to \bC^{N_j}
$$
is contained in an irreducible algebraic variety
$M_j\subset\bC^{N_j}$ dimension~$n$. Either the $\tilde M_j$
standardization~$M_j$. There is a commutative diagram
$$

$$
As $X$ variety is smooth (and therefore normal), the morphism
$F_j: X \to M_j$ lifts to a morphism
$$
\tilde F_j=(f_1,\ldots,f_{\tilde N_j}):X\to \tilde M_j.
$$
By construction, the coordinated functions $z_{N_j+1},\ldots,z_{\tilde N_j}$
(Resp.\ $f_{N_j+1},\ldots,f_{\tilde N_j}$) are algebraic integers
 $\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_{N_j}]/I(M_j)$ ring (resp.\ on
$\bC[f_1,\ldots,f_{N_j}]$), so $f_{N_j+1},\ldots,f_{\tilde N_j}\in 
A^0_\varphi(X)$ according~ 11.2 (d). In addition, the restriction
$$
\tilde F_j : X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)\to M_j
$$
is slack because $df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n\neq 0$ on $X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$
according~ (a). As $\tilde M_j$ is locally irreducible image
$\tilde F_j(X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0))$ is necessarily contained in
all smooth points of~$\tilde M_j$. If $\tilde F_j$ is
injective on $X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$, the construction is completed
with $F = \tilde F_j$, $M = \tilde M_j$, $N = \tilde N_j$.

If not, are two points in $z_1 \neq z_2$ $X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$
such as $\tilde F_j(z_1) = \tilde F_j(z_2)$.
The proposal~ 11.5 (c) shows that there
 $g\in A^b_\varphi(X)$ a function such as $g(z_1) \neq g(z_2)$.
We set $N_{j+1} = \tilde N_j+1$, $f_{\tilde N_j+1} = g$. According to 11.6,
$g$ algebraic~est on $\bC[f_1,\ldots,f_{\tilde N_j}]$,
$g$ therefore~vérifie an irreducible equation of the form
$$
\sum_{k=0}^da_k(\tilde F_j)\,g^k = 0,\qquad
a_k \in \bC[f_1,\ldots,f_{\tilde N_j}],\quad a_d(\tilde F_j)\not\equiv 0.
\leqno(11.8)
$$
As $\tilde F_j$ is spread near and $z_1$ $z_2$, there are
Points of $z_1$ $w_1$ neighbor, neighbor $w_2$ of $z_2$ such as
$\tilde F_j(w_1) = \tilde F_j(w_2) \notin a_d^{-1}(0)$
and $g(w_1)\neq g(w_2)$. This results in that equation (11.8) is of degree
$d\geq 2$. As $K_\varphi(X)$ is a finite degree of extension
$\bC(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$ the method stops necessarily after a
finite number of steps.\hfil\square

\section{12}{Quasi-surjectivity of embedding.}

We take the ratings of the proposal 11.7. The objective
of this section is to show that the image of the morphism
$F : X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)\to M$ is an open Zariski~$M$.
 $Q\in\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]$ is a nonzero polynomial over~$M$, divisible
by~$z_{n+1}$ as the hypersurface contains $Q^{-1}(0)$ place
singular~$M_\sing$. we set
$$
\check M = M\ssm Q^{-1}(0),\qquad
\check X = X\ssm Q(F)^{-1}(0) \subset X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0),
$$
so $\check M$ is smooth and the restriction morphism
$$
\check F : \check X \to \check M
$$
is an isomorphism of the open $\check X$ $\Omega = \check F(\check X)$.
The $\check M$ variety can be (and will be) identified with a submanifold
affine algebraic $\bC^{N+1}$ app $\check M\to \bC^{N+1}$
defined by
$$
(z_1,\ldots,z_N)\mapsto\big(z_1,\ldots,z_N,z_{N+1}=Q(z_1,\ldots,z_N)^{-1}\big)~;
$$
morphism then $\check F : \check X \to \check M \subset \bC^{N+1}$
given by $\check F = (F,Q(F)^{-1})$. One of the crucial points of the reasoning
is to show that the positive current is closed $\check F_*dd^c\varphi$
extends from the open to the variety $\Omega = \check F(\check X)$ $M$
in full. We need for that precise estimates
mass, which are provided by the following lemma.
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 12.1.\pointir}{\it Either $G = (g_1,\ldots,g_m) \in

{\it Demonstration}. Apply the theorem 2.2 (c) with $\rho = \varphi-r$,
$\Omega = \{\rho<0\} = B(r)$ and $V_1 = \ldots = V_k = \log(1+|G|^2) \geq 0$.
He comes
$$
\int_{B(r)}\beta_k\wedge\gamma^k\leq C_3\int_{B(r)}\big(\log(1+|G|^2)\big)^k\;
\beta_0
$$
where, for $a > 0$ and $k \geq 0$, it was asked~:
$$
\beta_k=(r-\varphi)^{k+a}\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-k}+(k+a)
(r-\varphi)^{k-1+a}\,d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi\wedge (dd^c\varphi)^{n-k-1}.
$$
Was~:
$$
\beta_0 = 2(r-\varphi)^a\,(dd^c\varphi)^n+{1\over 2(1+a)}\,dd^c\beta_1.
$$
The Stokes theorem therefore impose any $r > 0$~:
$$
\int_{B(r)}\beta_0 = 2 \int_{B(r)}(r-\varphi)^a\,(dd^c\varphi)^n 
\leq 2\,r^a\,\Vol(X).
$$
On the other hand, the function is concave $t\mapsto (\log (e^k+t))^k$
on~$[0,+\infty[\,$. therefore obtained for all $p > 0$ inequality
convexity~:
$$
{\int_{B(r)}\big(\log (e^k+|G|^p)\big)^k\;\beta_0\over \int_{B(r)}\beta_0}
\leq\Bigg\{\log\Bigg[e^k+
{\int_{B(r)}|G|^p\;\beta_0\over \int_{B(r)}\beta_0}
\Bigg]\Bigg\}^k.
$$
As $g_j\in A^0_\varphi(X)$ [cf.\ definition 11.1], there $p > 0$
small enough and big enough as $C_4,C_5\geq 0$
$$
\int_{B(r)}|G|^p\;\beta_0 \leq \exp(C_4r+C_5).
$$
Previous inequalities then lead
$$
\int_{B(r)}\beta_k\wedge\gamma^k \leq C_6
\int_{B(r)}\big(\log (e^k+|G|^p)\big)^k\;\beta_0 \leq C_7\,r^{k+a}.
$$
Given the definition of $\beta_k$, this implies Lemma 12.1
after substitution $2r$~à~$r$.\hfil\square
\medskip

Endow $\bC^{N+1}$ and $\check M \subset \bC^{N+1}$ the metric
Fubini-Study $\omega = dd^c\log(1+|z|^2)$. We then have Theorem
Next extension, the demonstration was inspired by H.~Skoda [SK 5]
and H.~El Mir [EM]~; see also Article synthesis N.~Sibony [Sib].

{\statement Proposition 12.2.\pointir}{\it Either $T$ simple extension
$\check M$ current $\check F_*dd^c\varphi$ defined by
$$
T = \check F_*dd^c\varphi\quad\hbox{sur}~\check F(\check X),\qquad
T = 0\quad\hbox{sur}~ \check M\ssm \check F(\check X).
$$
So $T$ is closed on a positive current total mass of $\check M$
$\int_{\check M}T\wedge\omega^{n-1}$ over.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. First calculate the mass~$T$~:
$$
\int_{\check M}T\wedge\omega^{n-1}=\int_{\check F(\check X)}
\check F_*dd^c\varphi\wedge\omega^{n-1}=\int_{\check X}dd^c\varphi\wedge
(\check F^*\omega)^{n-1}.
$$
The $(1,1)$ Platform $\check F^*\omega$ is given here by
$$
\eqalign{
\check F^*\omega
&=dd^c\log(1+|\check F|^2)=dd^c\log(1+|F|^2+|Q(F)|^{-2})\cr
&=dd^c\log(1+|Q(F)|^2+|F|^2|Q(F)|^2).\cr}
$$
Finiteness of the mass then follows from Lemma 12.1~ (a). For all
$1$ actual Platform $v$ $\cC^\infty$ class of compact support in $M$
and for all multiindices $J,K\subset \{1,\ldots,N+1\}$ such as
$|J| = |K| = n-2$, it now shows the invalidity of the integral
$$
I = \int_{\check M} dv \wedge T \wedge dz_J \wedge d\overline z_K,
$$
which will prove that $dT = 0$. $\chi$ be a function of class
$\cC^\infty$ on $\bR$ as $0 \leq \chi \leq 1$, $\chi(t) = 1$
if $t < 0$, if $\chi(t) = 0$ $t > 1$ and $0 \leq \chi' \leq 2$.
By definition $T$ he comes
$$
\eqalign{
I &= \int_{\check X} \check F^*(dv) \wedge 
dd^c\varphi \wedge d\check F_J\wedge \overline{d\check F_K}\cr
&= \lim_{r\to +\infty} \int_{\check X}\chi\Big({\varphi\over r}\Big)\;
d(\check F^*v) \wedge dd^c\varphi \wedge d\check F_J\wedge 
\overline{d\check F_K}\;.\cr}
$$
The $\chi({\varphi\over r})\;d(\check F^*v)$ form has support in
$\check F^{-1}(\Supp v)\cap\overline{B(r)}\compact \check X$.
So integration by parts gives
$$
I= \lim_{r\to +\infty} \pm\int_{\check X} \check F^*v \wedge 
\chi'\Big({\varphi\over r}\Big)\;{d\varphi\over r}\wedge
dd^c\varphi \wedge d\check F_J\wedge 
\overline{d\check F_K}\;.
$$
Thanks to the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, it is full
increased by ${2\over r}\sqrt{I_1I_2(r)}$ with
$$
\eqalign{
I_1&=\int_{\check X} dd^c\varphi \wedge 
\check F^*\big(v\wedge \overline v^c\wedge dz_J\wedge d\overline z_J\big)~,\cr
I_2(r)&=
\int_{\check F^{-1}(\Supp v)\cap B(r)} d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi\wedge
dd^c\varphi \wedge d\check F_K\wedge 
\overline{d\check F_K}\;.\cr}
$$
As $v$ has compact support in~$\check M$, there are constants
$C_1,C_2\geq 0$ such as
$$
\eqalign{
&v\wedge \overline v^c\wedge dz_J\wedge d\overline z_J\leq
C_1(\check F^*\omega)^{n-1}~,\quad\cr
&d\check F_K\wedge \overline{d\check F_K}=\check F^*(dz_K\wedge d\overline z_K)
\leq C_2(\check F^*\omega)^{n-2}\quad
\hbox{sur $\check F^{-1}(\Supp v)$}.\cr}
$$
Lemma 12.1 (a) and (b) then drives
$$
\eqalign{
I_1&\leq C_1\int_X dd^c\varphi \wedge (\check F^*\omega)^{n-1} < +\infty~,\cr
I_2(r)&\leq
C_2\int_{B(r)} d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi\wedge
dd^c\varphi \wedge (\check F^*\omega)^{n-2}\leq C\,C_2\,r~,\cr}
$$
from where
$$
|I|\leq \lim_{r\to+\infty} {2\over r}\sqrt{I_1I_2(r)} = 0.\eqno\square
$$

By Theorem 15.3 of the appendix, there is a psh function $V$
and $(1,0)$ Platform class $u$ $\cC^\infty$ on having $\check M$
following properties, suitable for $C_1,C_2,C_3\geq 0$ constants.
\medskip

Consider then the function defined on $\tau = V - \check F_*\varphi$
open $\Omega = \check F(\check X) \subset \check M$. According~ 12.3 (a)
$\tau$ is psh on~$\Omega$ and more $\tau \leq V$. As
$\check F_*\varphi$ approaches $+\infty$ near~$\partial\Omega$,
$\tau$ approaches $-\infty$ at any point~$\partial\Omega$. Therefore,
$\tau$ extends to a psh function on~$\check M$, still denoted $\tau$,
as $\tau = -\infty$ on $\check M\ssm\Omega$.
\medskip

{\statement Corollary 12.4.\pointir}{\it is $\check M\ssm\Omega$
closed part of pluripolar~$\check M$.\hfil\square}
\medskip

the next step is to show that in fact $\check M\ssm\Omega$
an algebraic hypersurface~$\check M$. According~ 12.3 (c) and
definition $T$ was~:
$$
2i\,\partial\overline\partial(V-\check F_*\varphi) = \overline\partial u
\quad\hbox{sur}~\Omega,
$$
therefore the $(1,0)$ -form $h$ defined by
$$
h =\partial(V - \check F_*\varphi) + {u\over 2i} = 
\partial\tau + {u\over 2i}
\leqno(12.5)
$$
is holomorphic on~$\Omega$~; as is $u$ class $\cC^\infty$
on~$\check M$ This demonstrates the way that class is $\tau$
$\cC^\infty$ on~$\Omega$. We now prove that if $h$
 $1$ Platform extends to a rational meromorphic on~$\check M$. This will
essentially result estimates 12.3 (b, d) and Theorem
algebraicity of 8.5. For construction and $F$ $\check X$, shapes
$(df_1,\ldots,df_n)$ define a global reference
~ of$T^*\check X$. Forms are therefore also $(dz_1,\ldots,dz_n)$
a cue $T^*\check M$ above the open
$\Omega = \check F(\check X)$, and we can write
$$
h = \sum_{j=1}^n h_jdz_j
$$
with $h_j\in\cO(\Omega)$ functions. The reasoning of the principle
is to verify that the functions are $h_j\circ\check F$
 $\varphi$ -polynomiale growth, from the increase in
$\tau = V - \check F_*\varphi$ provided by~ 12.3 (b). The fact that
we did not have a lower bound of $\tau$ introduced
additional difficulty that we will short-circuit in
seeking only an estimate of functions
$\exp({1\over 2}\tau\circ\check F)\;|h_j(\check F)|$.

{\it Demonstration}.

(A) is an immediate consequence of Lemma 12.1 if one observes that
$$
dd^c\log(1+e^\varphi)=
{e^\varphi\;dd^c\varphi\over 1+e^\varphi} +
{e^\varphi\;d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi\over (1+e^\varphi)^2}
\leq dd^c\varphi+e^{-\varphi}\;d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi.
$$
(B) The estimate 12.3 (b) implies
$$
\tau = V - \check F^*\varphi \leq V \leq C_1 \log(1+|z|^2),
\leqno(12.7) 
$$
therefore the function satisfies the $\theta = \log(1+e^{\tau\circ\check F})$
increase
$$
\theta \leq \log\big(1 + (1+|\check F|^2)^{C_1} \big) 
\leq C_1\check\varphi+\log 2.
$$
Corollary 7.3 applied to $(\check X,\check\varphi)$ then drives
$$
\int_{\check X} i\partial\overline\partial\theta \wedge \check\alpha^{n-1}
< +\infty.
$$
Immediate calculation also gives
$$
i\partial\overline\partial\theta =\check F^*\bigg(
{i\partial\overline\partial\tau\over 1+e^{-\tau}}+
{ie^\tau\;\partial\tau\wedge\overline\partial\tau\over (1+e^\tau)^2}\bigg)
\geq {1\over 2}\;
\check F^*\big(ie^\tau\;\partial\tau\wedge\overline\partial\tau\big)\;
e^{-2C_1\check\varphi},
$$
and it follows
$$
\int_{\check X}e^{\tau\circ\check F-2C_1\check\varphi}\;
\check F^*(\partial\tau\wedge\overline\partial\tau)\wedge\check\alpha^{n-1}
< +\infty.
$$
By definition $\check\alpha$ was second $\check\alpha\geq
\check F^*\omega$. The estimate 12.3 (d) therefore leads
$$
\eqalign{
&|\check F^*u|_{\check\alpha}\leq\big(|u|_\omega\big)\circ\check F\leq
C_2(1+|\check F|^2)^{C_3}\le C_2\;e^{C_3\check \varphi},\cr
\noalign{\vskip5pt}
&\int_{\check X}|\check F^*u|_{\check\alpha}^2\;
e^{\tau\circ\check F-(C_1+2C_3)\check\varphi}\;\check\alpha^n\leq
C_2^2\int_{\check X}\check\alpha^n<+\infty.\cr}
$$
The property (b) now follows from the definition of $h = \partial\tau +
{u\over 2i}$ and equality
$$
|\check F^*u|_{\check\alpha}^2\;\check\alpha^n=n\;
\check F^*(iu\wedge\overline u)\wedge\check\alpha^{n-1}.
$$
(C) The trivial inequality
$$
dd^c\log(1+e^\varphi)
\geq {1\over 2}\,dd^c\varphi+{1\over 4}\,
e^{-\varphi}\;d\varphi\wedge d^c\varphi
$$
successively drives
$$
\eqalign{
\check\alpha^{n-1}&\geq {1\over 2^{n-1}}\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-1}+
{(n-1)\,e^{-\varphi}\over 2^n}\,(dd^c\varphi)^{n-2}\wedge d\varphi

&\geq 2^{-n}e^{-n\varphi}\;(dd^ce^\varphi)^{n-1} = 2^{-n}e^{-n\varphi}\;\beta^{n-1},\cr

\check F^*(ih\wedge\overline h)\wedge\check\alpha^{n-1}&\geq
2^{-n}e^{-n\varphi}\;|\check F^*h|_\beta^2\;\beta^n.\cr}
$$
By definition $\check\varphi$ was second
$$
\eqalign{
\check\varphi &= \log(1+e^\varphi)-2\log|Q(F)| + 
\log\big(1+|Q(F)|^2+|Q(F)|^2|F|^2\big)\cr
\noalign{\vskip5pt}
&\leq \varphi - 2\log|Q(F)| + C_6\log(1+|F|^2) + C_7 ,\cr}
$$
where $C_6 = 1 + \deg(Q)$. Inequality (b) gives us so
$$
\int_{\check X}
e^{\tau\circ\check F-C_4\varphi}\;|Q(F)|^{2C_4}\;
(1+|F|^2)^{-C_4C_6}e^{-n\varphi}\;|\check F^*h|_\beta^2\;\beta^n < + \infty
$$
and as $|F|\in L^0_\varphi(X)$, it follows
$$
\exp\Big({1\over 2}\tau\circ\check F\Big)\;|Q(F)|^{C_4}\;
|\check F^*h|_\beta \in L^0_\varphi(X).
$$
Moreover, $h_j$ function can be written as
$$
h_j = (-1)^{j-1}\;
{h\wedge dz_1\wedge \ldots\wedge \widehat{dz_j}\wedge\ldots \wedge dz_n\over
dz_1\wedge\ldots\wedge dz_n}.
$$
Was therefore
$$
|h_j(\check F)| \leq |\check F^*h|_\beta\;|df_1|_\beta\ldots\widehat{|df_j|_\beta}
\ldots|df_n|_\beta\;|df_1\wedge\ldots\wedge df_n|_\beta^{-1},
$$
and like

$$
Hypothetically $Q$ is divisible by~$z_{n+1}$, i.e.\ $Q  =z_{n+1}R$.
The property (c) is then obtained by multiplying the above function
$|R(F)|\in L^0_\varphi(X)$.\hfil\square

In order to work on $X$ rather than~$\check X$ we will

{\it Demonstration}. As $\check X = X\ssm Q(F)^{-1}(0)$, lemmas~ 12.6 (c) and
12.8 show that
$$
p\;\log\Big[\exp\Big({1\over 2}\tau\circ\check F\Big)\;|Q(F)|^{C_4+1}\;
|h_j\circ\check F|\;\Big] + \log|Q(F)|^2

extends a psh function on $X$. There is therefore a stationary $s > 0$
big enough and small enough $\varepsilon > 0$ as if $g$ means
the holomorphic function defined on $X$
$$
g = Q(F)^sh_j(F),
$$
then ${1\over 2}\tau\circ F + \log|g|$ psh function on $X$ and
$$

Proceeding as in Lemma 11.3 (a) thus obtained
$$
\limsup_{r\to+\infty}~{1\over r}\;\mu_r\Big[\Big({1\over 2}\tau\circ F + 
\log|g|\Big)_+\Big] \leq {C_8 - n \over \varepsilon}\Vol(X) < +\infty.

 $P\in\bC[X_0,X_1,\ldots,X_n]$ is a polynomial as $\deg_{X_\ell} P \leq 
k_\ell$ and is $\theta$ defined function
$$
\theta=\log|P(g,f_1,\ldots,f_n)| + k_0\Big({1\over 2}\tau\circ F +
C_1\log|Q(F)|\Big).
$$
According to the estimate (12.7) and the above results, is $\theta$
psh $X$ and checks on an estimate
$$
\theta_+\leq \sum_{j=1}^m k_j\log_+|f_j| + k_0
\Big({1\over 2}\tau\circ F + C_9\log|Q(F)|\Big) + C_{10}.

With the corollary 7.3, we obtain the increase
$$
\int_X dd^c\theta\wedge\alpha^{n-1}\leq C_{11}k_0+\sum_{j=1}^n
k_j\delta_\varphi(f_j)

with constant $C_{11} \geq 0$. If $a \in X$, resulting in the inequality
$$
\ord\nolimits_a P(g,f_1,\ldots,f_n) \leq
C_{12}(k_0+k_1+\cdots+k_n),\qquad C_{12}\geq 0.
$$
The theorem of reasoning 8.5 then shows that $g$ is algebraic
 $\bC(f_1,\ldots,f_n)$ on, and it is the same for the function
$h_j(\check F) = Q(F)^{-s}g$. Following is algebraic over $h_j$
$\bC(z_1,\ldots,z_n)$, i.e.\ $h_j$ satisfies an equation
$$
\sum_{\ell=0}^d a_\ell(z_1,\ldots,z_ n)\;h_j^\ell = 0,\qquad 
a_\ell \in \bC[z_1,\ldots,z_n],\quad a_d\not\equiv 0.
$$
The $a_dh_j$ element is algebraic integer $\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_n]$~;
we deduce an increase
$$
|a_d(z)h_j(z)| \leq C_{13}(1+|z|)^{C_{14}}.
$$
As $h_j$ is holomorphic on the open and the $\Omega\subset \check M$
Additional $\check M\ssm\Omega$ is multipolar, is $a_dh_j$
extended to a polynomial on~$\check M$. Therefore $h = \sum h_jdz_j$ is

simply connected. There are $\tau_j \in 
\cC^\infty(\Omega_{1,j})$ functions such as $d\tau_j = v + \overline v$
on~$\Omega_{1,j}$. The function is then locally $\tau - \tau_j$
constant on $\Omega_{1,j}\cap \Omega$,
therefore constant because $\Omega_{1,j}\cap \Omega = \Omega_{1,j}\ssm(
\check M\ssm\Omega)$ is connected. Following $\tau \in \cC^\infty(\Omega_1)$,
and as $\tau=-\infty$ on $\check M\ssm\Omega$,
it follows that $\Omega_1\ssm \Omega = \emptyset$.\hfil\square

{\statement Corollary 12.11.\pointir}{\it is $F(X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0))$

\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. If $x$ is any point of the open
$X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$,
then $F(x)\notin M_\sing \cup \{z_{n+1} = 0\}$, so there is a
 $Q_x$ polynomial divisible by $z_{n+1}$ and vanishing on~$M_\sing$ such
that $Q_x(F(x)) \neq 0$. According to the corollary 12.10, $\Omega_x := 
F(X\ssm Q_x(F)^{-1}(0))$ is an open Zariski~$M$, so also
the meeting
$$
\bigcup_{x\in X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)}\Omega_x =
F(X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)).\eqno\square
$$
As $X\ssm f_{n+1}^{-1}(0)$ of Stein and his biholomorphic picture

is necessarily an algebraic hypersurface~$M$.

\section{13}{Démonstration criterion of algebraicity (smooth case).}

According to the proposal~ 11.7 (a) at any point can $x_0 \in X$
associate a morphism
$$
F^{(0)} = (f^{(0)}_1,\ldots,f^{(0)}_{N_0}) \in \big[A^0_\varphi(X)\big]^{N_0}
$$
and a $g_0 = f_{n+1}^{(0)}$ function such as open or $X\ssm g_0^{-1}(0) \ni
x_0$ biholomorphic by $F^{(0)}$ a Zariski open a
algebraic variety in $\bC^{N_0}$.
There is therefore a countable recovery $X$ by such open
$X\ssm g_k^{-1}(0)$ associated with morphisms
\hbox{$F^{(k)} : X \to \bC^{N_k}$}. Consider the morphism product
$$
F_k = F^{(0)} \times F^{(1)} \times\cdots \times F^{(k)}:
X \to \bC^{N_0+\cdots+N_k}.
$$
According to Proposition 8.5, the $F_k(X)$ image is contained in a variety
ir algebraic\ re-\ Duke\-ble of $M_k\subset \bC^{N_0\;+\;\cdots\;+\;N_k}$
~$n$ dimension, and the corollary shows that 12.11
\hbox{$F_k(X\ssm g_j^{-1}(0))$} is open
Zariski of $M_k$ if~$j\leq k$. Let
$$
Y_k = \bigcap_{j\leq k} g_j^{-1}(0),\qquad
X_k =  X\ssm Y_k = \bigcup_{j\leq k} \big(X \ssm g_j^{-1}(0)\big).
$$
By construction $F_k:X_k\to F_k(X_k)\subset M_k$ is an isomorphism, and
$F_k(X_k)$ is an open Zariski~$M_k$. We can state~:
\medskip

{\statement Propostion 13.1.\pointir}{\it If $X$ checks
assumptions{\rm 9.1 '(a', b ')} then $X$ is meeting an increasing sequence
quasi-affine varieties $X_k$ where each $X_k$ identifies with an open
Zariski of $X_{k+1}$ with the induced algebraic structure.\hfil\square}
\medskip

In other words, $X$ has a ringed space structure which is
``locally'' that of an algebraic variety, but
``Zariski topology'' may not be substantially compact.

Note that there is indeed such
varieties. Just take $X$ to the surface (smooth)
 $\sin x = yz$ of equation~$\bC^3$, and $Y_k$ meeting
countable straight
$$
(\{j\pi\}\times\{0\}\times\bC)~ \cup ~(\{j\pi\}\times\bC\times\{0\}),
$$
$j\in\bZ$, $|j|>k$. The $X_k= X\ssm Y_k$ open then identifies the
algebraic variety
$$
V_k=\Big\{(x,y,z)\in\bC^3\,;\;
x\Big(1-{x^2\over\pi^2}\Big)\cdots\Big(1-{x^2\over k^2\pi^2}\Big)=yz \Big\}
$$
via $V_k\hookrightarrow X$ defined application
$$
(x,y,z) \mapsto (x,y,z')\quad\hbox{où}\quad
z' = z \prod_{|j|>k}\Big(1-{x^2\over j^2\pi^2}\Big),
$$
with $V_k\hookrightarrow V_{k+1}$ inclusions data morphisms
algebraic
$$
(x,y,z) \mapsto (x,y,z')\quad\hbox{où}\quad
z' = z \Big(1-{x^2\over (k+1)^2\pi^2}\Big).\eqno\square
$$
We now show that the result is necessarily $(X_k)$
stationary if the cohomology spaces are $H^{2q}(X\,;\,\bR)$
finite dimensional [hypothesis 9.1 '(c')].
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 13.2.\pointir}{\it Either $X$ analytical variety

H^{2d}(X, X\ssm Y\,;\,\bR) \simeq \bR^J ,
$$
 $(Y_j)_{j\in J}$ where is the family of irreducible components of
 $p$ dimension~$Y$.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. We refer, for example E.~Spanier [Sp] to
basic arguments of algebraic topology that will be
used. We proceed by induction on~$p$, the result being trivial
for~$p = 0$. If $p \geq 1$ or $Z$ meeting singular place $Y_\sing$
and irreducible components of $Y$${} < p$ dimension, so that
$\dim Z \leq p-1$. The exact~suite triplet is written
$$
H^q(X,X\ssm Z) \to H^q(X, X\ssm Y) \to H^q(X, X\ssm Y) \to H^{q+1}(X,X\ssm Z).
$$
By induction hypothesis for $H^q(X,X\ssm Z) = H^{q+1}(X,X\ssm Z) = 0$
$q\leq 2d$ so $H^q(X, X\ssm Y) \simeq H^q(X\ssm Z,X\ssm Y)$. Quits
 $(X, Y)$ replaced by $(X\ssm Z,Y\ssm Z)$, smooth we can assume $Y$
dimension~$p$.

$Y$ then has a tubular neighborhood homeomorphic $U$ normal~$NY$ bundle.
With the excision theorem, we obtain
$$
H^q(X,X\ssm Y) \simeq H^q(U, U\ssm Y) \simeq H^q(NY,N^\bullet Y)
$$
where $N^\bullet Y$ is the complement of the zero section of~$NY$. As
 $NY$ the bundle of real rank~$2d$, the isomorphism theorem
Thom-Gysin involves
$$
H^q(NY,N^\bullet Y) \simeq H^{q-2d}(Y),
$$
and $q = 2d$, $H^0(Y) \simeq \bR^J$.\hfil\square
\medskip

Now back to the situation of the proposal 13.1, where
$X_k = X\ssm Y_k$, and put $\dim Y_k = p_k$, $d_k = n-p_k$.
The exact~suite of the pair gives $(X, X\ssm Y_k)$
$$
H^{2d_k-1}(X\ssm Y_k) \to H^{2d_k}(X,X\ssm Y_k) \to H^{2d_k}(X).
$$
Since $X\ssm Y_k$ is isomorphic to an algebraic variety,
$H^{2d_k-1}(X\ssm Y_k)$
is finite dimensional, and it is the same for $H^{2d_k}(X)$ hypothetically.
Lemma 13.2 shows that $Y_k$ therefore has a finite number of components
irreducible $p_k$ maximum dimension. As $Y_k$ is a suite
decreasing empty intersection, we see that there $\ell > k$ as
$\dim Y_\ell < p_k$. After a finite number of steps we shall have
$Y_\ell = \emptyset$ or $X = X_\ell$. Let
$$
F = F_\ell = F^{(0)}\times \cdots \times F^{(\ell)},\qquad
M = M_\ell,\qquad N=  N_0 +\cdots+ N_\ell.
$$
The morphism $F : X \to M \subset \bC^N$ is then an isomorphism
analytical $X$ on a Zariski open $\Omega \subset M$. Even
 $M$ replace its normalization as in the proof~ 11.7 (b)
we can assume normal $M$. Since $\Omega$ of Stein, the
Additional $H = M\ssm \Omega$ is necessarily a hypersurface
~ of$M$. $K(\Omega)\simeq K(M)$ denote the body functions
on rational~$\Omega$, and the ring of functions $R(\Omega)$
regular algebraic over~$\Omega$. write
$$
F = (f_1,\ldots,f_N) \in \big[A^0_\varphi(X)\big]^N. 
$$
The co-morphism $F^*$ sends $K(\Omega)$ in the body
$\bC(f_1,\ldots,f_N)\subset K_\varphi(X)$. The proposal below shows
the algebraic structures and $(X,K_\varphi(X)\cap\cO(X))$
$(\Omega,R(\Omega))$ are isomorphic.
\medskip

{\statement Proposition 13.3.\pointir}{\it It has the following properties~$:$

\vskip2pt
\item{\rm (b)} $F^*R(\Omega) = K_\varphi(X)\cap \cO(X)$.\medskip}}

{\it Demonstration}.

(A) It suffices to show surjectivity of $F^*$. However, if
$g\in K_\varphi(X)$, the function is algebraic over $g$
$\bC(f_1,\ldots,f_N)$ from 11.6. Following is meromorphic $g\circ F^{-1}$
on $\Omega$ and algebraic over $K(\Omega)$. It follows that
$g\circ F^{-1}\in K(\Omega) = K(M)$, reasoning such as
at the end of the demonstration~12.9.

(B) is deducted immediately from (a), provided to verify the equality
$R(\Omega) = K(\Omega)\cap\cO_\anal(\Omega)$. inclusion
$R(\Omega)\subset\ldots$ is
clear. Conversely, given $g \in K(\Omega)$ and $x \in \Omega$ or
$g = u/v$ where $u,v\in \cO_{x,\alg}$, irreducible to write $g$
 $x$ item (which is smooth by hypothesis). This writing is
also irreducible in $\cO_{x,\anal}$. As $g \in \cO_{x,\anal}$,
so we $v(x)\ne 0$ a result and $g\in\cO_{x,\alg}$
$g\in R(\Omega)$.\hfil\square
\medskip

To complete the proof of Theorem 9.1 ', it remains to
show that $\Omega$ is algebraically isomorphic to an algebraic variety
refines, i.e.\ it must prove the existence of an algebraic dip
 $\Omega=M\ssm H\to\bC^{N'}$ own. It's easy if $M$ is smooth, but
 $M$ is singular when it may be that the algebraic hypersurface $H$
is not locally complete intersection, and in this situation
Goodman [Go] gave examples for which algebra $R(M\ssm H)$
is not finitely. Thank N.~Mok of telling me about this
difficulty, which made void my initial demonstration. The
reasoning [Mok2] is to observe what is $\Omega$
{\it rationally convex}~ in the following sense: for any
compact $K\subset\Omega$ envelope
$$
\hat K= \Big\{x\in\Omega\,;\;|g(x)| \leq \sup_K|g|~\hbox{pour tout 
$g\in R(\Omega)$}\Big\}
$$
is compact. This follows from~ 11.5 (d) and that
$\Omega\simeq X$ of Stein. It then applies the part
(B) of Theorem below.

{\it Demonstration} assuming (a). For everything
$x \in H$, there assumed a polynomial $P\in\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_n]$
and a neighborhood Zariski $V(x) \subset M$ as $H\cap V(x) = 
P^{-1}(0)\cap V(x)$. Either $H'$ the meeting of irreducible components
of $P^{-1}(0)$ not contained in~$H$. As $x\notin H'$, there
 $Q$ a polynomial vanishing on~$H'$ as $Q(x) = 1$.
Hilbert's theorem of zeros causes the existence of a whole
$s\in\bN$ as $Q^s/P \in R(M\ssm H)$. As the Zariski topology
is quasi-compact, one can extract a finite covering
$V(x_1),\ldots, V(x_m)$ of~$H$ and a finite family of polynomials
$P_j$, $Q_j^{s_j}$ associated with points~$x_j$. Our building shows
while the morphism
$$
\big(z_1,\ldots,z_N,Q_1^{s_1}/P_1,\ldots,Q_m^{s_m}/P_m\big) : 
M\ssm H\to\bC^{N+m}
$$
is a proper embedding.
\medskip

{\it Demonstration} under the assumption (b). first constructed by
descending induction on $k$ a series of algebraic subvarieties
$M_k\subset M$ closed, pure dimension~$k$ such as $M_k\cap H$
is a hypersurface of~$M_k$. We set $M_n = M$~; if $M_k$ was
built, we choose a polynomial vanishing on $P_k\in R(M)$ $H$
but not vanish identically on any irreducible component
~ of$M_k$~; we then noted the meeting $M_{k-1}$ components
irreducible $M_k\cap P_k^{-1}(0)$ not contained in~$H$.

Now we prove by induction on increasing $k$
the existence of rational $g_1,\ldots,g_{m_k}\in R(M\ssm H)$
such that the morphism
$$
\Phi_k:(z_1,\ldots,z_N)\mapsto
(z_1,\ldots,z_N,g_1(z),\ldots,g_{m_k}(z)) : M\ssm H\to\bC^{N+m_k}
$$
is a proper embedding restriction to $M_k\ssm H$ (for $k = n$
Theorem will be demonstrated as well). If $k = \dim M_k = 1$,
this property is clear, because the assumption (b) and the principle of
maximum result the existence of rational
$g_1,\ldots,g_{m_1} \in R(M\ssm H)$ including restrictions $M_1$
have poles at different points $x_1,\ldots,x_{m_1}$
~ of$M_1\cap H$. Suppose $\Phi_k$ built.
Either $\pi_k : \bC^{N+m_k} \to \bC^{N}$ projection,
$\overline M$ adhesion and $\Phi_k(M\ssm H)$ in $\bC^{N+m_k}$
$\overline H = \overline M \cap \pi_k^{-1}(H)$, so that
$$
\Phi_k : M\ssm H \to \overline M\ssm \overline H
$$
is an isomorphism (reverse $\Phi_k^{-1} = 
\pi_{k|\overline M\ssm\overline H}$). By induction hypothesis $\overline M_k
=\Phi_k(M_k\ssm H)$ is an algebraic submanifold closed
$\overline M_{k+1} = \overline{\Phi_k(M_{k+1}\ssm H)}$.
As the meeting is $\overline M_{k+1} \cap (P_k\circ \pi_k)^{-1}(0)$
disjoint $(\overline M_{k+1}\cap\overline H) \cup \overline M_k$,
it is seen that $\overline M_{k+1}\cap \overline H$ is locally
complete intersection
in $\overline M_{k+1}$ (and it is locally defined by $P_k\circ\pi_k$).
For $x \in \overline M_{k+1}\cap \overline H$ it
therefore a polynomial $Q \in R(\overline M)$ as $Q(x) = 1$,
which vanishes on all irreducible components of
$(P_k\circ \pi_k)^{-1}(0)$ encountering
not~$\overline M_{k+1}\cap \overline H$. We can complete $\Phi_k$
in a $\Phi_{k+1}$ morphism~ as in the case (a), by adding to
$\Phi_k$ of $g_j=(Q_j\circ\Phi_k)^{s_j}/P_k$ functions $m_k<j<m_{k+1}$~;
then $\Phi_{k+1} : M_{k+1}\ssm H \to \bC^{N+m_{k+1}}$ is proper, because
 $g_j \circ\pi_k=Q_j^{s_j}/P_k\circ\pi_k$ the functions define a
proper map on $\overline M_{k+1}\ssm \overline H$.\hfil\square
\medskip

The property~ 13.3 (a) results that is generated by $K_\varphi(X)$
$f_1,\ldots,f_N$, so that $K_\varphi(X)$ is also the body of
 $A^0_\varphi(X)$ quotients, which was not obvious
a priori. We can actually get slightly more accurate result.

but we do not know for the last two if still tied
or not. The surprising fact is that the algebra can have $A_\varphi^\infty(X)$
a degree of transcendence${} < n$. Choose such $X = \bC$,
with strictly psh function
$$

 $r \geq 3$ be given. By cutting the sum for the indices
$j \leq \log_2 r$ one hand, $j > \log_2 r$ other hand, one obtains

So choose $\varepsilon_j$

$$
was then $\varphi(j) \sim \log\log j$ when $j\to+\infty$, so
 $\varphi$ that is comprehensive. The functions $f\in A_\varphi^\infty(\bC)$
are polynomial growth and must check more
$|f(j)| \leq (\log j)^{\rm Cte}$ when $j\to +\infty$. therefore
$A_\varphi^\infty(\bC)$ is reduced to constants. Conditions
~ 9.1 (a) and (b) are still verified. An immediate calculation gives indeed
$$
dd^c\varphi = 2i\,dz\wedge d\overline z~
\sum_{j\in\bN}{2^{-j}\varepsilon_j\over(\varepsilon_j+|z-j|^2)^2},
$$
so that $\int_\bC dd^c\varphi = 8\pi$. The increase~ 9.1 (b)
takes place with the function
$$
\psi(z) = -\log\Bigg(\sum_{j\in\bN}{2^{-j}\varepsilon_j\over
(\varepsilon_j+|z-j|^2)^2}\Bigg).
$$
Considering the single term $j = 0$, we obtain the increase
$\psi(z) \leq 2\log(1 + |z|^2)$. For
$\varepsilon_j^{1/3}\leq |z-j| \leq {1\over 2}$ was second thanks
to (13.8) and $(13.9)\times {2\over 3}$~:
$$
\varphi(z) \geq 2\log(1+|z|^2) + 2^{-j}{2\over 3}\log\varepsilon_j + O(1)
\geq {2\over 3}\log(1 + |z|^2) + O(1),
$$
while it comes to $|z-j| \leq \varepsilon_j^{1/3}$
$$
{2^{-j}\varepsilon_j\over(\varepsilon_j+|z-j|^2)^2}\geq
{2^{-j}\varepsilon_j\over4\,\varepsilon_j^{4/3}}=2^{-j-2}\varepsilon_j^{-1/3},
$$
so if $\psi(z)\leq 0$ $j$ is large enough. We see it
is a constant $B$ as $\psi\leq 3\varphi + B$.\hfil\square

\section{14}{Algébricité singular complex spaces.}


 $X$ is an analytic space of dimension~$n$. If a set is $X$
~$\bC^N$ in algebraic, calculations show that the conditions\S10
Geometric 9.1~ (a, b, c) are satisfied.

Conversely, to demonstrate the adequacy of geometric conditions,
it faces two main challenges. On the one hand the
 $L^2$ estimates Hörmander priori are valid only on a
Stein opened the $X\ssm H$ smooth shape, which is a hypersurface $H$
 $X$ of containing the singular place $X_\sing$. To apply
lemma extension, one must assume that $X$ is normal.
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 14.1.\pointir}{\it Either $f$ holomorphic
on $X\ssm H$ as $f \in L^2_\loc(X_\reg)$. So if $X$ is normal,
$f$ extends to a holomorphic function on~$X$.}
\medskip

{\it Proof.} $f \in L^2_\loc(X_\reg)$ Under the hypothesis, it is conventional
 $f$ that extends from $X_\reg\ssm H$ to $X_\reg$, and any function
holomorphic on $X_\reg$ extends $X$ if $X$ is normal
(See\ [Nar] proposal~VI.4).

Another difficulty is that the $e^{-\psi}$ weight may not be
locally summable in some singular points, compared with a metric
smooth room. For example, consider the case
 $X$ of the conical variety of $z_0^p+\cdots+z_n^p=0$ equation in $\bC^{n+1}$,
$p\in\bN^*$. The Ricci curvature $X$ is then given through
proposal~ 10.1 (a) by the formula
$$
\Ricci(\beta_{|X})=-{1\over 2}dd^c\psi
$$
with $\psi(z)=\log(|z_0|^{2p-2}+\cdots+|z_n|^{2p-2})$. We thus see
 $e^{-\psi}$ that the function is locally summable in $0$ if
$p \leq n$. In the case of a space for which $X$ $e^{-\psi}$ is not
integrable in the neighborhood of any point of a curve, the proposal~ 11.5 (c)
no longer applies. It is therefore necessary to assume that the singularities
$X$ are isolated.
\medskip

{\it} Proof of Theorem 9.1 '(sufficiency of the conditions in the case
of isolated singularities). Hypothesis (c ') implies that the components
irreducible $X$ is finite. Is
$$
\pi : \tilde X \to X
$$
normalizing $X$. The $\varphi\circ\pi$ function is not generally
strictly psh near $\pi^{-1}(X_\sing)$, but even change
$\varphi\circ\pi$ and $\psi\circ\pi$ near the finite
$\pi^{-1}(X_\sing)$, we see that the assumptions are met
by $\tilde X$. Ultimately, it can be assumed normal and irreducible $X$.

The demonstration is now quite similar to that
that was given during the\S11, 12, 13, so we'll just
indicate the broad lines and the changes needed. lemmas
11.2 and 11.3 are true without any changes, as well as properties
11.5~ (a, b, d). The statement~ 11.5 (c) remains valid if
$\{x_1,\ldots,x_m\}\subset X_\reg$, and if some of the points are $x_j$
singular, we have the following partial result (which corresponds to
If~$\rho = 0$).
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 14.2.\pointir}{\it Given a finite set

$f \in A_\varphi^b(X)$, $b = {2c\over 1+c}$ having a jet

\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. We use the same arguments as in~ 11.5 (c)
substituting $z^{(j)}$ local coordinate system by a system
 $(z_1^{(j)},\ldots,z_{N_j}^{(j)})$ generator of the maximal ideal $\gm_{X,x_j}$

$$
\rho_1 = s(n+2)\Bigg[\sum_{j=1}^m \chi_j \log|z^{(j)}|^2 +  C_1\varphi\Bigg].

Near $x_j$, construction then gives $f = P_j(z^{(j)}) - g$
 $g$ with holomorphic as
$$
|g|^2\;|z^{(j)}|^{-2s(n+2)}\;e^{-\psi}\in L^2_\loc(X).
$$

$g \in \gm_{X,x_j}^s$.\hfil\square

Conversely, given a closed $T \geq 0$ current growth

The demonstration will be done in stages. First observe that
~ condition 15.1 (b) is equivalent to the following:
$$
\sigma(r) = \int_{|\zeta|<r}T(\zeta)\wedge\beta^{n-1}\leq C\;r^{2n-2}.
\leqno(15.4)
$$
It is not restrictive to assume the other $n\geq 2$. In the case
otherwise, we can apply Theorem 15.3 to the variety $M' = M\times\bC$
and current pullback $T' = \pi_M^*T$. Function
$V(z) = V'(z,0)$ and $u = u'_{|M\times\{0\}}$ trains meet
then the question.

Given a current $T \geq 0$ bidegree $(1,1)$ on $M$ checking~ (15.4),
one can associate a potential $V_T$ by the same formulas as
used by P.~Lelong [Le3] in~$\bC^n$~:
$$
V_T(z) = \int_M T(\zeta)\wedge \beta^{n-1}\;L_n(z,\zeta)
\leqno(15.5)
$$
with
$$
L_n(z,\zeta) = {1\over(n-1)(4\pi)^n}\;\bigg[{1\over(1+|\zeta|^2)^{n-1}} -
{1\over|z-\zeta|^{2n-2}}\bigg].
$$

{\statement Lemma 15.6.\pointir}{\it The formula defines a $(15.5)$
 $V_T \in L^1_\loc(M)$ upper semi-continuous function, and there are
constants such as $C_0,C_1$

V_T(z) \leq C_1\log_+|z| +C_0.

{\it Demonstration}. The core $L_n$ clearly verifies estimates
~ following:
$$
\eqalign{
|L_n(z,\zeta)| &\leq C_2|z|\;|\zeta|^{1-2n}\qquad\hbox{si $|\zeta|\geq 
2|z|\geq 1$},\cr
\noalign{\vskip6pt}
L_n(z,\zeta) &\leq C_3|\zeta|^{2-2n}\kern33.5pt
\hbox{si $1\leq |\zeta| \leq 2|z|$}.\cr}
$$
For $|z| = r \geq 1$, we deduce
$$
V_T(z)\leq C_4\Bigg[1+\int_1^{2r} {1\over t^{2n-2}}\;d\sigma(t)+
\int_{2r}^{+\infty} {r\over t^{2n-1}}\;d\sigma(t)\Bigg]
$$
After integration by parts, it comes, in view of (15.4):
$$
\eqalign{
V_T(z) &\leq C_4\Bigg[1+{\sigma(2r)\over (2r)^{2n-2}}+(2n-2)\int_1^{2r}
{\sigma(t)\;dt\over t^{2n-1}}+
(2n-1)r\int_{2r}^{+\infty} {\sigma(t)\;dt\over t^{2n}}\Bigg]\cr
&\leq C_5(1+\log r).\cr}
$$
Previous estimates further show that the integral (15.5)
converges absolutely on all $\{\zeta\in M\,;\;|\zeta|>2|z|\}$,
uniformly when $z$ describes a compact~$M$. The property
$V_T\in L^1_\loc(M)$ then follows by Fubini theorem that
$|L_n(z,\zeta)|$ is locally $M\times M$, integrable $z$
uniformly with respect to~$\zeta$.\hfil\square

{\it Demonstration}. $(P_1,\ldots,P_m)$ is a polynomial system
generators for the ideal of $M$ variety in $\bC[X_1,\ldots,X_N]$.
Since $M$ is smooth, partial Jacobians order $J_{K,L}$ $N-n$
(See\\S10) do not cancel all simultaneously~$M$. According to the
nullstellensatz Hilbert polynomials generate the $J_{K,L}$
Ideally unit~$M$~; so there is constant $C_8,C_9 > 0$
as
$$
\max_{K,L}|J_{K,L}(z)| \geq C_8(1+|z|)^{-C_9},\qquad z\in M.

The lemma then follows from the implicit function theorem (in its
Version quanti-tative).\hfil\square

Now we observe that the formula (15.5) can be rewritten as
$$
V_T(z)=\int_M T(\zeta)\wedge\big[K_n(z,\zeta)-H_n(\zeta)\big]
\leqno(15.8)

 $K_n$ core properties will allow us to easily calculate
$dd^cV_T$ according to~$T$.

as we shall see later that $\bOne_{\Delta}\;dd^cK_n=[\Delta]$. In
particular, it has
$$
R_n = \bOne_{M\times M\ssm\Delta}\;dd^cK_n \geq 0\quad\hbox{et}\quad
\Vert R_n(z,\zeta)\Vert \leq C|z-\zeta|^{-2n}.

For the second part of the increase, we place a point
$z \in M$ and use Lemma~15.7. In restriction~$M$ was the
Point~$z$
$$
dz = dz' = \hbox{composante de $dz$ sur $T_zM$},
$$
while in a neighboring point $\zeta\in z + (B'_z + B''_z)$ was~:
$$
d\zeta = d\zeta' +d(g_z(\zeta')).
$$
By (15.10) so it comes:
$$
\eqalign{
R_n(z,\zeta)&=\Bigg[{dd^c\big(|z'-\zeta'|^2+|g_z(\zeta')|^2\big) \over

where the differentiation of $g_z(\zeta')$ only covers $\zeta'$.
Lemma gives~15.7 by cons\-trick\-tion $g_z(0) = D_0g_z = 0$~; lemma
Schwarz then implies inequality

Now we observe that if $R_n(z,\zeta) \equiv 0$ $g_z \equiv 0$.
It follows $\zeta'\in {1\over 2}B'_z$ for inequality
$$
\Vert R_n(z,\zeta)\Vert\leq
{C_{12}\;|\zeta'|\;r(z)^{-1}\over\big(|\zeta'|^2 +|g_z(\zeta')|^2\big)^n}
\leq {C_{12}\;r(z)^{-1}\over |z-\zeta|^{2n-1}},
$$
who complete the estimate of Lemma 15.9. The classic formula
Bochner-Martinelli in $\bC^n$ gives the other
$$
dd^cK_n(z',\zeta') = [\Delta].
$$
By a calculation similar to that above, the inequality is obtained
$$
\Vert K_n(z,\zeta)-K_n(z',\zeta')\Vert\leq
{C_{13}\;r(z)^{-1}\over |z-\zeta|^{2n-3}},
$$
and each differentiation $K_n$ exhibitor $|z-\zeta|$ increases
by one unit. So we see that $dd^cK_n-[\Delta]$ is coefficients
$L^1_\loc$ on $M\times M$, and consequently it does not bear
 $\Delta$ mass. The~preuve is completed.\hfil\square

$T$ is class~$\cC^\infty$, even then regularize the $T$

\{|\zeta|\leq 2r\}$ vicinity of the bracket. Now using (15.4) and the obvious increases

$$
to see that the last two integrals in calculating admit $I(r)$
an increase in the $O(r^{-2})$ form. We therefore have the expected formula
$$
\lim_{r\to+\infty} I(r) = \int_M T(\zeta)\wedge w(\zeta) + 
\int_{M\times M} T(\zeta)\wedge R_n(z,\zeta)\wedge w(z).\eqno\square

{\it} Demonstration of Theorem 15.3. According to Proposition 15.2 and
Lemma 15.6, the current is positive $\Theta_T$ closed to growth

Perform the alternating sum of these identities. For odd indices
it comes~:
$$
dd^c\big(V_1-V_2+\cdots-V_{2k}+V_{2k+1}\big) = T+T_{2k+1} \geq 0,

Lemma 15.15 and below implies that the function psh
$V = V_1 - V_2 +\cdots+ V_{2k+1}$ is minimal growth.
According to the proposal 15.11 was the recurrence relation

T_{k+1}(z)=\int_M R_n(z,\zeta)\wedge T_k(\zeta).

now exploits the fact that $R_n$ is a regularizing core

{\it Demonstration}.

(A) We proceed by induction on~$k$. Let
$$
\sigma_k(z,r) = \int_{|\zeta-z|<r}T_k(\zeta) \wedge \beta(\zeta)^{n-1}.
$$
It is known that the function is increasing $r\mapsto r^{2-2n}\sigma_k(z,r)$
and she admits to limit when $\int_M T_k\wedge\omega^{n-1} < +\infty$
$k\to +\infty$. Write where $T_{k+1}(z) = I_1(z) + I_2(z)$
$$
\eqalign{
I_1(z)
&= \int_{|\zeta-z|\geq \varepsilon\,r(z)} R_n(z,\zeta)\wedge T_k(\zeta),\cr
I_2(z)
&= \int_{|\zeta-z|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} R_n(z,\zeta)\wedge T_k(\zeta).\cr}
$$
Now we use the lemma 15.9 to estimate $I_1(z)$ and $I_2(z)$.
 $\Vert I_1(z)\Vert$ the standard is increased to a constant by
$$
\eqalign{
\int_{\varepsilon\,r(z)}^{+\infty}{d\sigma_k(z,r)\over r^{2n}}
&\leq 2n\int_{\varepsilon\,r(z)}^{+\infty}{\sigma_k(z,r)\over r^{2n+1}}\;dr\cr
&\leq {n\over\varepsilon^2r(z)^2}\int_M T_k\wedge\omega^{n-1} 
= O\big(\varepsilon^{-2}(1+|z|)^{2C_7}\big),\cr}
$$
while
$$
\Vert I_2(z)\Vert\leq C_{10}(1+|z|)^{C_{11}}\int_{|\zeta-z|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} 
{\Vert T_k(\zeta)\Vert\;\beta(\zeta)^n\over |\zeta-z|^{2n-1}}.
\leqno(15.13)
$$
When $k = 0$, this shows the estimate (a) $\Vert T_1(z)\Vert$.
In the general case, the estimate in order $k$ combined (15.13) results
$$
\Vert I_2(z)\Vert \leq C_{14}(1+|z|)^{B_k+C_{11}}
\big(\varepsilon^{-2}I_3(z)+I_4(z)\big)

with
$$
\eqalign{
I_3(z)
&= \int_{|\zeta-z|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} {\beta(\zeta)^n\over|\zeta-z|^{2n-1}},\cr
I_4(z)
&= \int_{|\zeta-z|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} {\beta(\zeta)^n\over|\zeta-z|^{2n-1}}
\int_{|w-\zeta|<\varepsilon\,r(\zeta)} {T(w)\wedge\beta(w)^{n-1}\over|w-\zeta|^{2n-k}}.
\cr}
$$
For $\varepsilon$ quite small, the inequalities $|\zeta-z| < \varepsilon\,r(z)$
and $|w-\zeta| < \varepsilon\,r(\zeta)$ involve $|w-z| < 3\varepsilon\,r(z)$.
With the notation of Lemma 15.7, integral and $I_3(z)$ $I_4(z)$
So admit surcharges
$$
\eqalign{
I_3(z)
&\leq C_{15}\int_{|\zeta'|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} {\beta(\zeta')^n\over|\zeta'|^{2n-1}}
\leq C_{16}\;\varepsilon\,r(z),\cr
I_4(z)
&\leq C_{17}\int_{|w-z|<3\varepsilon\,r(z)}T(w)\wedge\beta(w)^{n-1}
\int_{\zeta'\in\bC^n} {\beta(\zeta')^n\over|\zeta'|^{2n-1}|w'-\zeta'|^{2n-k}}.
\cr}
$$
By homogeneity is obtained
$$
\int_{\zeta'\in\bC^n} {\beta(\zeta')^n\over|\zeta'|^{2n-1}|w'-\zeta'|^{2n-k}}
={C_{18}\over |w'|^{2n-k-1}}\leq{C_{19}\over |w-z|^{2n-k-1}},
$$
and estimating (a) to deduce the order~$k+1$.
\medskip

(B) Let us use the inequality (a) $k\geq 3$. He comes
$$
\eqalign{
\int_{|\zeta-z|<\varepsilon\,r(z)} {\beta(\zeta)^n\over|\zeta-z|^{2n-1}}
\int_{|w-\zeta|<\varepsilon\,r(\zeta)} {T(w)\wedge\beta(w)^{n-1}\over|w-\zeta|^{2n-k}}.
\cr
}
$$
The estimate (b) result. more than the full observed
Previous converges uniformly to $0$ when $\varepsilon\to 0$.
This integral corresponds in estimating (a) to the kernel iteration
$R_n$ on $|\zeta-z | < \varepsilon\,r(z)$ balls. All the others
Under contributing in $T_k$ involve at least
integrating the complementary $\{|\zeta-z|\geq\varepsilon\,r(z)\}$,
and are due in continuous~$z$. So $T$ is continuous
that~$k\geq 3$.\hfil\square

{\it} Demonstration of Theorem 15.3 (continued). At this point, it was therefore
 $V$ built a psh function of minimal growth and current $\Theta$
positive closed continuous coefficients such that
$$
dd^cV = T + \Theta,\qquad \Vert\Theta(z)\Vert = O\big((1 + |z|)^{C_{20}}\big).
$$
We will start by showing it can be assumed from $\Theta$
~$\cC^\infty$ class. $(\Omega_j,g_j)_{j\in\bN}$ either an atlas
locally finished $M$ where $\Omega_j \compact M$ where
$g_j : \Omega_j\to\bC^n$ is a biholomorphic application
$\Omega_j$ on the unit ball of $\bC^n$ and either
$(\psi_j)_{j\in\bN}$ $\cC^\infty$ a partition of unity
subject to~$M$. There are $\tau_j$ psh functions on $\Omega_j$
such as $dd^c\tau_j = \Theta$. $\tau_j^\varepsilon = \tau_j * 
\rho_\varepsilon$ denote a $\cC^\infty$ regularized family
$\tau_j$ respect to map~$g_j$, and put
$$
W = \sum_{j\in\bN} \psi_j(\tau_j-\tau_j^{\varepsilon_j}),\qquad
\varepsilon_j>0,
$$
On the open $\Omega_k$ it comes
$$
dd^cW - \Theta = dd^c(W - \tau_k) = dd^c \Bigg[ 
\sum_{j\in\bN} \psi_j(\tau_j-\tau_k-\tau_j^{\varepsilon_j})\Bigg],
$$
and since $\tau_j-\tau_k \in \cC^\infty(\Omega_j\cap\Omega_k)$, one sees
that $dd^cW-\Theta \in \cC^\infty_{1,1}(M)$. As the current is $\Theta$
Continuous coefficients $\tau_j$ and $1$ Platforms $d\tau_j$, $d^c\tau_j$
are continuous. When $\varepsilon_j$ are chosen small enough,
therefore obtained $|W|\leq 1$ and $-\omega \leq dd^cW \leq \omega$ with
$\omega = dd^c\log(1+|z|^2)$.
The $V' = V - W + \log(1+|z|^2)$ function is to psh
minimal growth and verifies where $dd^cV' = T+\Theta'$
$$
\Theta' = \Theta - dd^cW + \omega
$$
is a closed positive current $\cC^\infty$ class as
$\Vert\Theta'(z)\Vert = O\big((1 + |z|)^{C_{20}}\big)$.

We suppose now that $\Theta$ is $\cC^\infty$ class. We
then applies the $L^2$ estimates Hörmander-Nakano-Skoda [Nak], [Sk4]
 $\Theta$ aware, considered a Platform $(n,1)$ closed values
the holomorphic bundle $E = T^*M \otimes \bigwedge^n TM$. the bundle
cotangent $T^*M$ is semi-positive in the sense of the metrics for Griffiths
$\beta$ (it is a quotient of the flat bundle $T^*\bC^N_{|M}$), so according
[DS] $T^*M\otimes\bigwedge^n T^*M$ the fiber is semi-positive in the sense
Nakano. The proposal~ 10.1 (b) shows that the bundle itself is $E$
semi-positive in the sense of Nakano metric $\beta\,e^{-2\psi}$ where
$\psi = \log\big(\sum_{K,L}|J_{K,L}|^2\big)$. An estimated
of [Sk4] applied to the adjoint bundle
$$
\Big(E, \beta\,\exp\big(-2\psi-C_{21}\log(1+|z|^2)\big)\Big),
$$
one obtains the existence of a shape such that $u\in\cC^\infty_{1,0}(M)$
and$\overline\partial u = \Theta$
$$
\int_M|u|_\beta^2\;(1+|z|^2)^{-C_{22}}\;\beta^n<+\infty.
$$
To complete the proof of Theorem 15.3 and in particular 15.3~ (d)
just convert this $L^2$ estimate estimate $L^\infty$
$$
|u|_\beta^2\leq C_{23}(1+|z|)^{-C_{24}}.

Given that $\overline\partial u = \Theta$ admits an increase in
 $L^\infty$ standard, just use the INEGA\-ity below, by
placing the balls in the $|\zeta-z| < {1\over 2}\,r(z)$
Lemma~15.7.\hfil\square

{\statement Lemma 15.14.\pointir}{\it Either $v$ a function of class
$\cC^1$ in $B(r)\subset\bC^n$ ball. So
$$
|v(0)| \leq \bigg[{n!\over \pi^nr^{2n}}\int_{B(r)}|v(z)|^2\;d\lambda(z)

{\it Demonstration}. Apply the Cauchy formula with the rest
 $t\mapsto v(tz)$ function $z \in B(r)$, $t\in\bC$, $|t| < 1$. He comes
$$
\eqalign{
v(0) 
&= {1\over 2\pi} \int_0^{2\pi}v(e^{i\theta}z)\,d\theta-{1\over\pi}
\int_{|t|<1}{\overline\partial v(tz)\cdot z \over t}\;d\lambda(t),\cr
|v(0)|
&\leq {1\over 2\pi} \int_0^{2\pi}|v(e^{i\theta}z)|\,d\theta +2|z|\;
\sup_{B(r)}|\overline\partial v|.\cr}
$$
After calculating the average value (VM) for $z \in B(r)$ is obtained
$$
|v(0)|\leq \VM\big[\,|v|\;;\;B(r)\big] + {4n\over 2n+1}\;r\cdot
\sup_{B(r)}|\overline\partial v|,
$$
and
$$
\VM\big[\,|v|\;;\;B(r)\big] \leq \VM\big[\,|v|^2\;;\;B(r)\big]^{1/2}
$$
thanks to the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.\hfil\square

It remains for us to verify the following elementary result,
which was used during the demonstration.
\medskip

{\statement Lemma 15.15.\pointir}{\it Let $V_1,V_2$ two psh functions
minimal growth on~$M$. It is assumed that $V = V_1 - V_2$ is psh.
So $V$ is minimal growth.}
\medskip

{\it Demonstration}. According to Noether's normalization theorem,
there are polynomial functions such as $f_1,\ldots,f_n$ on $M$
$R(M)=\bC[z_1,\ldots,z_N]/I(M)$ an entire algebra
$\bC[f_1,\ldots,f_n]$. The morphism $F=(f_1,\ldots,f_n) : M \to \bC^n$
is proper and finished, and was coaching
$$
C_{25}(1+|z|)^{C_{26}}\leq |F(z)| \leq C_{27}(1+|z|)^{C_{28}}
$$
with $C_{25},\ldots,C_{28} > 0$. With the obvious inequality
$$
V \leq V_+ \leq F^*(F_*V_+)
$$
it suffices to show that $F_*V_+$ is minimal growth in~$\bC^n$.
As
$$
V_+ \leq (V_1)_+ + (V_2)_+ - V_2,
$$
is deduced for the mean value of $F_*V_+$ on the ball
$B(r)\subset\bC^n$ of center $0$ the upper bound
$$
\VM\big[F_*V_+\,;\,B(r)\big] \leq
\VM\big[F_*(V_1)_++F_*(V_2)_+\,;\,B(r)\big] -
\VM\big[F_*V_2\,;\,B(r)\big].
$$
The $F_*(V_1)_+$ functions are $F_*(V_2)_+$ psh to minimal growth,
while the $r \mapsto \VM[F_*V_2\,;\,;B(r)]$ function is increasing.
therefore obtained a mark
$$
\VM\big[F_*V_+\,;\,B(r)\big] \leq C_{29}\,\log_+r + C_{30},
$$
and the lemma is derived from the average of inequalities
$$
F_*V_+(z)\leq VM\big[F_*V_+\,;\,B(z,r)\big] \leq 2^{2n}\;
\VM\big[F_*V_+\,;\,B(0,2r)\big] \leq C_{31}\log_+ r +C_{32}
$$
with $r := |z|$.\hfil\square
