This paper is devoted to internal capacity characteristics of a domain D ⊂ ℂⁿ, relative to a point a ∈ D, which have their origin in the notion of the conformal radius of a simply connected plane domain relative to a point. Our main goal is to study the internal Chebyshev constants and transfinite diameters for a domain D ⊂ ℂⁿ and its boundary ∂D relative to a point a ∈ D in the spirit of the author's article [Math. USSR-Sb. 25 (1975), 350-364], where similar characteristics have been investigated...
