Let Ω⊂Cn be a bounded domain, and let f be a
real-valued function defined on the whole topological boundary ∂Ω. The aim of this paper is to find a characterization of the functions
f which can be extended to the inside to a m-subharmonic function under
suitable assumptions on Ω. We shall do so by using a function algebraic
approach with focus on m-subharmonic functions defined on compact sets. We
end this note with some remarks on approximation of m-subharmonic functions
