Abstract

We discuss a notion of the energy of a compactly supported measure in \( \mathbb{C}^n \) for n > 1 which we show is equivalent to that defined by Berman, Boucksom, Guedj and Zeriahi. This generalizes the classical notion of logarithmic energy of a measure in the complex plane \( \mathbb{C} \); i.e., the case n = 1.
