Abstract.
Algebraic varieties V are investigated on which the natural analogue of the classical Phragmén-Lindelöf principle for plurisubharmonic functions holds. For a homogeneous polynomial P in three variables it is shown that its graph has this property if and only if P has real coefficients, no elliptic factors, is locally hyperbolic in all real characteristics, and the localizations in these characteristics are square-free. The last condition is shown to be necessary in any dimension.
