Critical points of a strictly subharmonic function

Let $M$ be a smooth, compact manifold with boundary. Let $u: M \to \mathbf{R}$ be a smooth function that has its Riemannian Laplacian equal to a positive constant: \begin{equation} \Delta u = A > 0....

Is there a harmonic function with just one singular point?

Let $D \subset \mathbf{R}^2$ be the unit disc, and $L > 0$. Let $u: D \times (-L,L) \to \mathbf{R}$ satisfy \begin{equation} \begin{cases} \Delta u = 0 \quad \text{ on $D \times (-L,L)$ } \\ \frac{...

Are the two-valued homogeneous harmonic functions classified?

Question. Is there a classification of homogeneous two-valued harmonic functions on $\mathbf{R}^n$, valid in dimensions $n \geq 3$? For reference, multi-valued functions are familiar objects in ...

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 $c$...
