Abstract

We study the properties of hulls of compact sets in \(\mathbb {C}^n\) that are generated by certain subfamilies of q-plurisubharmonic functions. We consider in particular those functions that are plurisubharmonic on the level sets of holomorphic mappings defined from \(\mathbb {C}^n\) into \(\mathbb {C}^q\). We also compare the above-mentioned hulls against the generalised polynomially and rationally convex hulls already defined in the literature. Our main result yields that the hulls defined by q-plurisubharmonic functions or q-pseudoconvex sets are all q-maximum, so that their complement is relatively \((n{\text {-}}q{\text {-}}2)\)-pseudoconvex.
