Extremal Functions and Widom Factors on Compact Riemann Surfaces

We study the Chebyshev extremal problem on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g>0$. As an analog to monic polynomials, we consider admissible meromorphic functions having no poles away from a marked point $P_{\infty}$ (with adequate normalisation). For a nonpolar compact set $E\subset X\setminus\{P_{\infty}\}$, we...
