A compact set $K ⊂ ℂ^N$ satisfies Łojasiewicz-Siciak condition if it is polynomially convex and there exist constants B,β > 0 such that
$V_K(z) ≥ B(dist(z,K))^β$ if dist(z,K) ≤ 1. (LS)
Here $V_K$ denotes the pluricomplex Green function of the set K. We cite theorems where this condition is necessary in the assumptions and list known facts about sets satisfying inequality (LS).
