A note on Picard principle for rotationally invariant density (Q752234)

Given a nonnegative locally Hölder continuous function P on \(\{0<| z| \leq 1\}\) in the complex plane, we say that the Picard principle is valid for P at \(z=0\) if the set of Martin boundary points over \(z=0\) with respect to equation \(\Delta u-Pu=0\) on \(\{0<| z| <1\}\) consists of a single point. In this paper, the following theorem is proved applying a criterion given in previous papers by the author and M. Nakai. Theorem. Let \(\{a_ n\}\) and \(\{b_ n\}\) be sequences in (0,1) such that \(b_{n+1}<a_ n<b_ n\) and \(a_ n\to 0\) (n\(\to \infty)\), and set \[ P_ n=(2\pi)^{-1}\iint_{\{a_ n\leq | z| \leq b_ n\}}P(z)dx dy+1\text{ and } M_ n=\log (b_ n/a_ n). \] If P is rotationally invariant and \(\sum^{\infty}_{n=1}M^ 2_ n(1+P_ nM_ n)^{-1}=\infty\), then the Picard principle is valid for P at \(z=0\).
