Abstract
We prove a formula for the Fekete-Leja transfinite diameter of the pullback of a set E ⊂ℂ N by a regular polynomial map F , expressing it in terms of the resultant of the leading part of F and the transfinite diameter of E . We also establish the nonarchimedean analogue of this formula. A key step in the proof is a formula for the transfinite diameter of the filled Julia set of F .
