Let $\Delta u={\Sigma }_i\frac{{\partial }^2}{{\partial }_{x_i}^2}$, $Lu={\Sigma }_{i,j}{a}_{ij}\frac{{\partial }^2}{\partial x_i\partial x_j}u+{\Sigma }_i{b}_i\frac{\partial }{\partial x_i}u+cu$ be elliptic operators with Hölder continuous coefficients on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbf{R}}^n$ of class $C^{1,1}$. There is a constant $c\>0$ depending only on the Hölder norms of the coefficients of $L$ and its constant of ellipticity such that $$c^{-1}{G}_{\Delta }^{\Omega }\le G_L^{\Omega }\le c{G}_{\Delta }^{\Omega }\text{on}\Omega \times \Omega ,$$ where ${\gamma }_{\Delta }^{\Omega }$ (resp. $G_L^{\Omega }$) are the Green functions of $\Delta$ (resp. $L$) on $\Omega$.

A 2p-times continuously differentiable complex-valued function f = u + iv in a domain D ⊆ ℂ is p-harmonic if f satisfies the p-harmonic equation ${\Delta }^{p}f=0$, where p (≥ 1) is a positive integer and Δ represents the complex Laplacian operator. If Ω ⊂ ℂⁿ is a domain, then a function $f:\Omega \to {ℂ}^m$ is said to be p-harmonic in Ω if each component function $f_i$ (i∈ 1,...,m) of $f=(f₁,...,f_m)$ is p-harmonic with respect to each variable separately. In this paper, we prove Landau and Bloch’s theorem for a class of p-harmonic mappings...

Let $K\subset {ℝ}^m$ ($m\ge 2$) be a compact set; assume that each ball centered on the boundary $B$ of $K$ meets $K$ in a set of positive Lebesgue measure. Let $C_0^{\left(1\right)}$ be the class of all continuously differentiable real-valued functions with compact support in ${ℝ}^m$ and denote by ${\sigma }_m$ the area of the unit sphere in ${ℝ}^m$. With each $\varphi \in C_0^{\left(1\right)}$ we associate the function $$W_K\varphi \left(z\right)=\frac{1}{{\sigma }_m}\underset{{ℝ}^m\setminus K}{\to }\int \mathrm{g}rad\varphi \left(x\right)·\frac{z-x}{{|z-x|}^m}x$$ of the variable $z\in K$ (which is continuous in $K$ and harmonic in $K\setminus B$). $W_K\varphi$ depends only on the restriction ${\varphi |}_B$ of $\varphi$ to the boundary $B$ of $K$. This gives rise to a linear operator $W_K$...

The aim of this work is to answer positively a more general question than the following which is due to T. Sheil-Small: Does the harmonic extension in the open unit disc of a mapping f from the unit circle into itself of the form $f\left(e^{it}\right)=e^{i\phi \left(t\right)}$, $0\le t\le 2\pi$ where $\phi$ is a continuously non-decreasing function that satisfies $\phi \left(2\pi \right)-\phi \left(0\right)=2N\pi$, assume every value finitely many times in the disc?

Some properties of the functions of the form $v\left(x\right)={\sum }_{i=0}^m{\left|x\right|}^i{h}_i\left(x\right)$ in ℝⁿ, n ≥ 2, where each $h_i$ is a harmonic function defined outside a compact set, are obtained using the harmonic measures.
