Harmonic Function with special property

I would appreciate any help with the following problem: Let $(M,g)$ be a 3 dimensional Riemann manifold with boundary. Let $ \Gamma $ be a surface of sufficient regularity dividing M into two ...

The reproducing kernel for harmonics on compact manifolds

Page 39, proposition 1.1.3 here, http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cis610/sharmonics.pdf clearly explains how for every ``level" (the parameter $k$ in the proposition) one can construct a function ("kernel") ...

Is maximum principle valid in the case of non-smooth boundaries?

Let $U_1$ and $U_2$ be two bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $U_1 \Subset U_2$. Note that we don't assume $\partial U_i$ to be smooth or Lipschitz, they may be very bad. Denote $U=U_2 \...

Invariance of the space of harmonic functions under derivation associated to a non-vanishing vector field

Let $X$ be a non-vanishing real analytic vector field on an open manifold $M$. What kind of obstructions would appear when we search for a Riemannian metric on $M$ such that the space of ...

Behaviour of higher order Laplacian in punctured domain

Bocher theorem characterize the behaviour of a positive harmonic function in punctured disc. More precisely if $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and $U$ is a non negative solution of $\Delta u=0$ ...

Mean Value Inequality with Linear Term

I am having trouble proving this modified mean-value inequality. Suppose that $\Delta u+cu\ge 0$ for $u:\mathbb{R}^n\to [0,\infty).$ Prove that there exists constants $r_0,C>0$ depending only on $c$...

On the solution of Laplace equation with mixed boundary condition

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be an annular (bounded and connected) domain with inner and outer boundary $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$, respectively. It is known that the PDE system $$ \begin{...

The decay rate of the spectrum of the Gaussian kernel on compact manifolds

It seems that the $k^{th}$ largest eigenvalue of the intergral operator induced on $S^n$ by the Gaussian kernel, $e^{-\frac{\vert \vec{x} - \vec{y} \vert _2^2}{2\sigma^2}}$ decays as $k^{-k}$. This is ...

Harmonic functions and monotonic decay

I have a general question surrounding certain harmonic functions. I was able to solve the Laplace equation $\Delta f = 0$ in $\mathbb{R^3}$, subject to two spherical (equal radii) boundary conditions, ...

Harmonic extension in a ball $B(x, r) \subset \mathbb R^n$

I have recently been trying to understand the theory regarding harmonic extensions in $\mathbb R^n$. I have, however, had some difficulties to find the kind of results I am looking for. For that ...

Harmonic functions in infinite domain in Euclidean space

EDIT: Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary. Let $f\colon \mathbb{R}^n\backslash \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function which is harmonic in $\mathbb{R}^n\...

Extending harmonic functions defined in the closure of a bounded smooth domain to some larger domain

Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$ where $N\geq 2$. Consider the Laplace equation with a Neumann boundary condition $$ -\Delta u = 0 \quad\mbox{in } \Omega, \qquad \frac{\...

Harmonic/Subharmonic lifting of functions on an annulus

Suppose $\Omega_1, \Omega_2 \subset R^2$ are bounded open regions with $\Omega_1 \Subset \Omega_2$. Let $f_1\in C(\partial \Omega_1)$ and $f_2\in C(\partial \Omega_2)$. Is there a function $h\in H^1(\...
