We provide some conditions for the graph of a Hölder-continuous function on [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a closed disk in ℂ, to be polynomially convex. Almost all sufficient conditions known to date — provided the function (say F) is smooth — arise from versions of the Weierstrass Approximation Theorem on [Formula: see text]. These conditions often fail to yield any conclusion if rank ℝDF is not maximal on a sufficiently large subset of [Formula: see text]. We bypass this difficulty by introducing a technique that relies on the interplay of certain plurisubharmonic functions. This technique also allows us to make some observations on the polynomial hull of a graph in ℂ2 at an isolated complex tangency.
