When $1\<p\<\infty$ and $p\ne 2$ the $p$-harmonic measure on the boundary of the half plane ${ℝ}_{+}^2$ is not additive on null sets. In fact, there are finitely many sets $E_1$, $E_2$,...,$E_{\kappa }$ in $ℝ$, of $p$-harmonic measure zero, such that $E_1\cup E_2\cup ...\cup E_{\kappa }=ℝ$.

Given a Hörmander system $X=\{X_1,\cdots ,X_m\}$ on a domain $\Omega \subseteq {𝐑}^n$ we show that any subelliptic harmonic morphism $\phi$ from $\Omega$ into a $\nu$-dimensional riemannian manifold $N$ is a (smooth) subelliptic harmonic map (in the sense of J. Jost & C-J. Xu, [9]). Also $\phi$ is a submersion provided that $\nu \le m$ and $X$ has rank $m$. If $\Omega ={𝐇}_n$ (the Heisenberg group) and $X=\left\{\frac{1}{2}\left(L_{\alpha }+L_{\overline{\alpha }}\right),\frac{1}{2i}\left(L_{\alpha }-L_{\overline{\alpha }}\right)\right\}$, where $L_{\overline{\alpha }}=\partial /\partial {\overline{z}}^{\alpha }-i{z}^{\alpha }\partial /\partial t$ is the Lewy operator, then a smooth map $\phi :\Omega \to N$ is a subelliptic harmonic morphism if and only if $\phi \circ \pi :(C\left({𝐇}_n\right),F_{{\theta }_0})\to N$ is a harmonic morphism, where $S^1\to C\left({𝐇}_n\right)\stackrel{\pi }{\to }\to {𝐇}_n$ is the canonical circle bundle and $F_{{\theta }_0}$...

Soit $\Phi$ une fonction non négative réelle ; une fonction $u$ harmonique sur une surface de Riemann $R$ est dite $\Phi$-bornée si $\Phi \left(\right|u\left|\right)$ admet une majorante harmonique. On étudie la classe $H\Phi \left(R\right)$ des fonctions $\Phi$-bornées sur $R$ et on montre, en particulier, que chaque $u$ de $H\Phi \left(R\right)$ est essentiellement positive pour toute $R$, si et seulement si ${\inf }_{t\to \infty }\Phi \left(t\right)/t\>0$.

The main result of the present paper is : every separately-subharmonic function $u(x,y)$, which is harmonic in $y$, can be represented locally as a sum two functions, $u=u^{*}+U$, where $U$ is subharmonic and $u^{*}$ is harmonic in $y$ , subharmonic in $x$ and harmonic in $(x,y)$ outside of some nowhere dense set $S$.

Let $u$ be harmonic in the half-space $R_{+}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$. We show that $u$ can have a fine limit at almost every point of the unit cubs in $R^n=\partial R_{+}^{n+1}$ but fail to have a nontangential limit at any point of the cube. The method is probabilistic and utilizes the equivalence between conditional Brownian motion limits and fine limits at the boundary. In $R_{+}^2$ it is known that the Hardy classes $H^p$, $0\<p\<\infty$, may be described in terms of the integrability of the nontangential maximal function, or, alternatively, in terms...

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 $\Omega$.
