Evans potentials and the Riesz decomposition

From MaRDI portal





This paper is concerned with Riesz-type decomposition for superharmonic functions in parabolic manifolds. The main result of the paper provides a necessary and sufficient condition for such a decomposition in terms of the spherical mean induced by the Evans kernels. More precisely, given a parabolic Riemannian manifold \(M\) of dimension \(d\geq 2\) and a superharmonic function \(u\), it is shown that \(u\) has the decomposition \(u=h+c(d)\int_M e(\cdot,y)d\mu(y)\) on \(M\), where \(h\) is a harmonic function, \(c(d)>0\) is a positive constant depending on the dimension \(d\), \(\mu=-\Delta u\geq 0\), and \(e(\cdot, \cdot)\) is the Evans kernel, if and only if the spherical mean \(m(r,u)\) of \(u\) over the sphere of radius \(r\) satisfies \(m(r^2,u)-2m(r,u)=O(1)\) as \(r\rightarrow \infty\).
